Our Paper Wedding Anniversary was recently celebrated in style. Such a happy first year, and a gorgeous daughter to show for it! Being Paper - we were lucky that presents were easy (Cotton next - any ideas?).  Paul presented Deborah with tickets to a show - Billy Elliot - with music by Elton John.  We had our first G&T together in almost a year, and a fabulous night out (Sorry we left you behind Miranda - & thank-you for babysitting grandparents!!).  Set in Newcastle where we first met, the Australian/Geordie accents were hilarious and the music & dancing really were sensational.  A fantastic evening.

Knowing that Paul likes to get into the papers - Deborah wrote a silly article as front page news for the Hull Daily Mail (Paul’s home town).  On Monday 18th, Deborah presented Paul with it in a frame that now hangs in our study!

Now, we’re not religious so this is a “Non-Christening Dress” …  but here are some pics of Miranda wearing Mummy Mac’s Maternal Grandfather’s Christening dress -  (John Lawrence).  The pink ribbon is a recent addition for having a girl!

Hiya!

I have just been told some very exciting news that I would like to share with you all!!

I am REALLY very lucky - Mummy’s cousin *Jodi Riches* and Daddy’s brother *Lee McCormack* have both just agreed to be my very own “Supporting Adult” and/or “Guiding Parent”.  (It’s basically the same thing as a godparent - just without the religious bit!)

I’m totally thrilled and can’t WAIT to meet them both!

(I also believe that they are both suitable candidates for getting me into trouble when I’m older!!)

Love Miranda McCormack
