There were 4 little girls and 2 pageboys, mostly relatives. One of the pageboys is William's godson; one of the girls his his cousin Lady Louise Windsor. Those dresses - like something out of 1986 - so Laura Ashley! Apparently the boys; outfits were modeled on 1820s military uniforms.

No way I was getting up early, and we have no DVR, but Good Morning America is replaying the highlights, which is really all I wanted. Kate's wedding dress is gorgeous. And that's about all the girly stuff I got.
Oh! And trees in Westminster Abbey!
t edit And Harry has INSANE hair. I love it.

I'm having facebook dissnonance this morning. First I noticed a Milwaukee friend liking one of Nora's posts, and it took me a while to remember that I think I linked them up to each other a year or more ago because of beer brewing interests. Then another, totally un-buffista connected friend just posted this:
I don't want to alarm anyone, but there's a giant orb of yellow fire in the sky today.

Kate's tiny crown made me giggle. It looks ludicrous.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Pfeh. What's the point of gold sword slings if you can't put a sword in 'em?
