My Daughter Danielle had her official Engagement party on Saturday, she got Engaged to a lovely bloke called Paul, [because we have a Paul already we call him *Beany*].
We had 2 marquee's a live band [Son Paul's band] and about 150 guest's, we had a great time and played *dodge the flying debris* and *How long can you hang on to the Marquee pole, before your your fingers go blue*also another game that went down well was *Bobbing for Burgers* the BBQ was soggy to say the least, lol.
The youngest Granddaughter had the right idea.

She is snug as a bug, Bless her.
All the pretty things i had hung up got blown away or soaked and shrunk, the candles were too soggy to light, the bunting that took me weeks to sew is still hung in the tree looking very sorry for itself, lol.
The Band had to be squished into the *Summerhouse* [though they were the only dry people in Bentwood] they played wonderfully even though their eardrums may take time to heal.
Especially when Danielle gave her rendition of *I will always Love You* in fact we all wanted to pelt her with rotten eggs, but couldn't find any...........................
The cutting of the cake was lovely Beany was all excited and liked the romance of it all.
Dan got over excited and decided to squish it in his face........................ That's my girl.
Then the kiss.
It was a lovely evening despite the rain and the wind, even all the effort that had been put into the decorations had not been wasted, if it had snowed we would have loved it, disappointed, No Never, I am a proud Mother of a Beautiful Daughter and a Handsome soon to be Son in law.
All i ask is that God Blesses them both in abundance and they live a happy and healthy life together for many many years.
