I’m so lucky. We did get sunshine, and # 4 Brats big day on Saturday was absolutely lovely.

This is the state of my party tent on Thursday evening - pouring rain and tent roof propped up by broomsticks and patio furniture

And here we are, in church on Saturday. The clergy added to the youthful ambiance, and the youngsters were called up by twos. # 4 Brat to the right.

All done, this is outside our little red church - and the young ladys carriage awaits… (Behold the weather!!!!)

After a lovely ride through the countryside, and a history lesson, courtesy of the driver (who’s a great friend of ours), the comfirmation girl and party arrive at home.

37 people were seated indoors, and enjoyed a buffet that was a co-effort of yours truly, my sister, my mother-in-law, my aunt and a good friend. Would you believe, I forgot to take pics of the food. Too busy, it just slipped my mind. Everyone enjoyed it, though…

Loved seeing all these beautiful pictures of your family on such an important event in your daughter’s life. The pictures of the horse and cart ride were really neat and the last one, of the three younger children together, was my favorite of the whole bunch. Loved the traditional Norse apparel on the little ones!!!

Lovely day indeed, and she looks lovely too. I’m miffed though, I wanted to see the food ;)
