Wow! What a year. Samuel has moved fast this year in asking Livi McLeod to be his sweetheart and then to be his wife. We are all totally blessed by coming to know this young lady, especially young Grace who now figures she has a new big sister. The bonding was completed at Valla Beach this year where we had a 'girly' day out checking out bridal gowns as well as material shops. Livi did a splendid job of sewing up a pair of pj pants ... another initiation test for entering into the Paris family. All systems go now for a garden wedding at Saumerez Homestead, Easter Saturday (if there is such a day?)this year. James Day is doing the photography and here is a link to the engagement shoot - a beautiful job, James.
