Silver and Gold.....

We have had a few busy days filled with lots of celebrations. 

First there was a golden wedding anniversary of a couple from our church. We gathered at their house early Friday morning and sang some songs outside their house until they came out and invited us in for coffee/tea and some fresh bread! 50 years of marriage - that really is something!

Then on Saturday we went to a graduation party for our niece Christine. In Denmark you get a white hat for graduation and this you wear for days after the graduation. We also celebrated her brother Christian who passed his exams as a truck mechanic. Christian hates being in the centre of attention, but he did get a little attention on Saturday even though the party was offically for Christine.

There were sooooo many cakes! I ate too much again!

 Kristian was just like me.......in fact he ate even more than me!! See, I even caught him in the act.......

This morning we have been up since 5am!! No it´s not a typing mistake! 5AM - FIVE AM!!!!! Why?? Well Kristian´s brother Anders and his wife Lis have been married 25 years today and so we were all off to a morning celebration. We had to be there by 6.45am (Kristian was playing in the brass band that would "wake" them up.)

The house was decorated so beautifully.

The happy couple came out in their PJs and bathrobe. Lis even had rollers in her hair!! haha This gave everyone a laugh!

 Breakfast was then served....

 One of their daughters held a wonderful speech for them on behalf of all the girls and then Kristian´s sister Signe sang a beautiful song for them. Anders also held a beautiful speech for Lis. (Must admit I shed a few tears - and I was not the only one!) It was a really lovely morning. We then had to go as Kristian had to be at work by 9.30am! Poor him. I am off work today and in a few minutes am heading back to bed for a few hours!
