a royal year.

Happy Anniversary to the Royal Couple! 

 

This time last year, I was waking up at 5 AM to watch Kate Middleton become HRH Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge.  It was over too soon, but it was a lot of fun waking up super early to watch history unfold!

Over the past year, HRH Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge has had a whirlwind new life with the Royal Family.  Here are some photos from the past year.

Isn't this such a beautiful couple?

Kate's wardrobe on her first trip to North America was amazing!

Don't you just love all of HRH Catherine's clothes?

This morning I woke up at 5:00 AM to watch the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton.  I never wake up this early for anything (I am not a morning person).  But, this is a historical day and I love, love, love the royal family!!!!  Kate Middleton's wedding dress was beyond beautiful.  My friend Meaghan has been studying abroad in London, England since January and was in the crowd in front of Buckingham Palace (so jealous).

The wedding has been on almost every channel all day...so naturally I have been watching it all day!!!!! So fun!

Isn't Duchess Catherine beautiful!?

Did you wake up to watch the wedding?

tomorrow's the big day

The Royal Wedding is finally upon us and I for one have never been so excited to make up at 5:00 a.m.

Isn't this just perfect?

Who else will be watching the festivities in the wee hours?

A Royal Wedding

Ever since I was a little girl I have loved everything about the Royal Family in England.  I remember the day that Princess Diana was killed and how sad it was.  But, it wasn't until I went to London, England when I was 16 that I truly came to love the Royal Family.

William and Harry are adorable and of course, like every other girl in the world I too hoped to marry one of them and become a real princess or queen.  But, last week that fantasy came to an end when Prince William announced his engagement to Kate Middleton.

Today, the couple announced that their wedding will be April 29, 2011 at West Minster Abby in London, England.  West Minster Abby is the same church that Queen Elizabeth was married in and where Princess Diana's funeral took place.  It is a very historic church and one that holds a lot of history for the Royal Family.

I cannot wait to watch it all unfold!
