Magical Moments

 

Having all my family and friends from Cape Town with us on our wedding day. Last minute run arounds that had to be done... bride and groom had to get ready and my husband had to wait for 20 minutes as I was late and only because the Cape Town family and friends let me run late. Finally after so many prayers the day arrived... I'm getting married!! It was a day filled with many blessings.

The Honeymoon

 

Yes we went on honeymoon..
Umngazi River Lodge and Lake Naverone. It was amazing we had so much fun, lovely weather, we were spoiled. We didn't want to come back after such a lovely holiday.
