Royal Wedding street parties April 29th 2011 and the sun came too!
April 29, 2011
They had forecast heavy showers and cold weather but this afternoon the sun came out and celebrated the Royal Wedding with the rest of the country.
There were street parties a plenty, my goodness red,white and blue is a good combination for cheeriness. Thank goodness they were all allowed to go ahead, it was great fun and a day the kids will always remember.
My thanks to the residents of Mina Rd, Mayfield Rd, Cecil Rd and Effra Rd all in the Royal Borough of Wimbledon.
The replay is running on into the afternoon. Prince William and Catherine say yes!

The red, white and blue cake proves popular at the street party
Hello Kitty got the red,white and blue too.
Prince Edward didn't get left out after all!
A cardboard castle to decorate was a hit activity with the kids at one Royal street party
Chinese lanterns joined flags as tree decorations
Jolly royal couple cupcakes in the cake competition
A princess in the making all dressed up in red, white and blue for the street party
Well used raggedy flags show a touch of class
Just love Lily's subtle face paint and do it yourself flag dress.
Busy,busy,busy, rocking street party with a PA playing Bruce Springsteen 'dancing in the streets'!
For me, the winner of the cake competition, a Victoria sponge of course!
I am loving that tie, wonder if its ever worn on a normal day?
Yummy, home made jam tarts and flag decorated cup cakes
End of the day, warmth and sunshine and time for the judging of the cake competition.

What festivities! A gorgeous day for a beautiful wedding. I guess a wedding calls for tons of sweets & cakes! Hope you’re having fun, wish we could partake of the festivities as well. : )
