Our friends Jamie (Scottish) and Solveig (Norwegian) were the ones getting married. They had a mercifully short ceremony, mostly in English, that was in a lovely church in the village where Solveig grew up. It was really hard work keeping the two kids quiet for the ceremony, but they did it! Tryfan chewed on my necklace while Rhiannon kept waiting for the Minister to start telling a story about horses that Rhodri told her was going to happen.
The happy couple!
Outside enjoying the sunshine at the Reception, which was at a Cultural Center / Agricultural College.
The wedding was at 2pm and the reception went on until 1am, but we didn't stay the whole time. We left around 8pm. Rhiannon was bouncing off the walls - she had befriended Solveig's father and he was giving her little candies every time she came over to visit the head table. Then she caught on and started just asking random wedding guests for candy and most of them happily obliged because she was so cute and cheeky and asked for them in Norwegian. Anyway, we all slept well this night! Here are the troops on Sunday morning. They let me sleep in while they all played on the floor in the living/ kitchen room.
