I took my two DC's to a wedding today

[VeniVidiVickiQV]

And they were fantasticly behaved throughout the hour and a half church service. DD was a completely unfazed flower girl, and DS was generally well behaved. We left at 8.30am this morning. Service was for 12pm. Bride was very late. Long service. Dinner not served until 4.45pm in the end.

They managed to stay awake, until DS finally caved in and fell asleep on me at about 8.30pm.

They were patient, and brilliant.

that's a long service
such well behaved children and such a long day you should be proud!

oh i know....they were brilliant. Although we had did need to do a fair amount of distraction with DS in the church with the order of service and a pen, and also an MP3 player.

And DD, who is not normally good in new surroundings or with lots of people (particularly people she doesnt know), went up the aisle first with the other flower girl and page boy, then sat at the front of the church for the hour and a half without a problem. She's only 4.

I am sooooooooooo proud

And not at all worried now for our wedding in November!!!!!

An hour and a half!
Blimey.

I hope they had a sandwich.

Bless them - well done VVQ - I'm glad they did you proud!

Thank you Blu

How lovely Hatrick. I am really looking forward to our wedding and feel so much better knowing that they will be fine. [beaming]
