No wedding has gained that much attention... that was until April 29 when over 2 billion were glued to their tv's to watch the nuptials of William and Kate.
Unfortunately, to Paul and I's dismay, Kate was pressured to keep her invite list extremely small, and therefore, we were not invited to Westminster Abbey.
Boo.
As a plan B, we decided to celebrate the event in the comfort of my living room. While Paul grabbed some Zzz's at home before coming over, Sarah joined in and we decided to use the time to catch up on America's Next Top Model as a "pre-game" if you will.
She decided to help celebrate the event with the assist from her Easter basket in the form of a perfectly formed chocolate bunny.
This was in addition to the munchies I threw together. I thought in connection to the special day, we should celebrate with tea, croissants, and blueberry muffins. Blueberry of course to help signify the RIDICULOUS engagement ring Kate was sporting. Some girls have all the luck.
As Sarah and I chattered and watched some tv before the big event, our exhaustion got the best of us and we slipped into la-la land. That was before the 4 am knock on my dorm. I stumbled over to discover this...
Paul showed up as dapper as ever (well, at least for a 4am living room wedding viewing), wearing a top hat and sporting a cane. Oh, and we must not forget his signature house slippers.
Paul was enthralled in the festivities thanks to his sleep before hand, and he was fully immersed in the post wedding events.
That was in contrast to Sarah and I who were fighting off sleep...
It may not have been pretty, but it was history. It was fabulous, in both witnessing a world event, and also in spending some time with some amazing friends.
I raise this symbolic blueberry muffin to you, William and Kate...
