Prince George Turns 2!

Happy second birthday to HRH Prince George of Cambridge!

Honestly, I feel like a gushing parent when I say this, but I can’t even believe it has been two years since we all had our eyes glued to a hospital door? I totally said the same thing last year, but whatever, I have zero chill when it comes to royal babies.

Looking back on what I hoped we would see from Prince George in his second year, none of it happened. Okay, kidding – his cheeks are still chubby so that’s all good. And he definitely has said his first word, we just didn’t hear it. No photo with Harry. NO PHOTO WITH HARRY. C’mon William and Kate give the people what they want!

However, despite that one tiny thing I am clearly very bitter about, we had some incredible moments from our favorite toddler this year. So many cute pictures. and videos. Playing outside at dad’s polo matches. MEETING HIS NEW LITTLE SISTER. His first balcony appearance. So many matching outfits with dad. So many. George has certainly developed a full blown personality this year; dare I say, a little reminiscent of a certain uncle he has yet to be publicly photographed with?

As expected, the Cambridge clan, aka the “lovely little family,” will be celebrating George’s birthday in private at Anmer Hall in Norfolk.

Happiest of birthdays to our dearest Cheeks!

Prince Harry’s Invictus Games Coming to America!

Before I even start this post, yes, I know I have been absent for two months and I feel TERRIBLY about this. Please forgive me.

Now, onto HAPPY news – Prince Harry’s Invictus Games are coming to the USA in 2016! After an incredibly successful first go in London in September 2014 (we’re talking Prince Harry’s 30th birthday), the games for service men and women are coming to Orlando, Florida. GET READY AMERICA. .

Announcing the winning host city in a video message (clearly recorded before he left for Africa), Prince Harry speaks proudly of last year’s inaugural games and his hopes for the games to come. Saying,  “I have no doubt that the USA will set the bar even higher than London did and put on a great show.” YES, HAZZA, YES. GO USA. GOD BLESS AMERICA. and all that stuff…

Over four hundred competitors from thirteen nations across the world competed in London last September over four days. This year, the event will take place at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, May 8 – 12. Please tell me this means live broadcasts on ESPN….

And I can’t *not* bring up the obvious fact that the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex is part of Walt Disney World. Ltierally all I want to see is Prince Harry drinking around the world in Epcot and posing with Mickey Mouse in front of Cinderella Castle. Suddenly yearning hard for my former life working and living at Walt Disney World…
