Waiting for The Queen in Windsor Great Park |
Today is my birthday, and it is one of the most special birthdays I've had in years. First and foremost, my amazing sister and brother-in-law are here to celebrate with me. What a treat! And to make the day even sweeter, I got a birthday wave from The Queen herself!

Me & the kids enjoying the picnic |
My dear friend, Nicole, received car park passes from the Crown Estate to park along a private road in Windsor Great Park. There, we had a very windy picnic and waited for The Queen to arrive. Right in front of our picnic spot, she got out of her car and into her waiting carriage.
 |
There she is! |
Sadly, the weather prevented them from lowering the top of the carriage. But that didn't stop her from giving us a beautiful smile and a friendly wave as she passed by.
 |
A smile and a wave just for us |
How could she resist when this darling girl was standing there, waving the Union Jack and holding up this cute homemade sign?
 |
Her sign reads "It's my mum's birthday" |
It was a very happy birthday indeed!
