The Royal Wedding

When the kids go to my parents' house, they often like to play with some old hats that once belonged to their great-grandmothers. Recently, those hats took on a different meaning. Grammie had recorded the Royal Wedding and was watching it with Pappaw. Genevieve and Anson became interested because of the fact that it was a Prince and Princess getting married, and all of the Royalty and pomp and circumstance. My parents began to talk to them about the way the people invited to the wedding were dressed and particularly all of the amazing hats that the women were wearing. That caused Genevieve to remember the hats in Grammie's closet. So they got out all of the hats and began to pretend they had been invited to the wedding too. My granddaddy actually had a small tophat that Anson likes to wear, so both soon were ready to make their appearance at the Royal wedding. The kids continued the pretending by playing with some of Grammie's models of the Queen's royal coach and horses. Luckily my Dad got several pics of the event.
