Last weekend was a bank holiday for England so I booked an extra day and had four days with my family in Scotland. My cousin David got married to his partner of 12 years and it was the first time the whole family had been together since I was 7 years old (minus my parents and brother of course but they sent a message to be read out at the speeches which was really nice). We danced all night long, my legs were sore for days after!! It was my first Scottish family wedding and everyone looked so smart in their kilts - even though I have never lived in Scotland it all feels very natural when I'm up there with the traditions etc and its just great to spend time with everyone. On Sunday my Auntie Ali had a big family BBQ at hers, even though most of us were struggling from the night before it was a great BBQ with lots of food and more drink....! I love getting away to Scotland, at the moment I visit around four times a year and will be up again in November when the All Blacks are playing there so will squeeze in some family time as well as NZ time!
