High Five- Her Majesty The Queen

by thelifestylelady September 14, 2015

Howdy Y’all,

Today’s high-five was a no brainer for me, I wanted to celebrate HM The Queen. For those of you who are unaware last week she became the longest reigning monarch in British history serving for over 63 years and 216 days. She has beaten the previous record set by HM Queen Victoria, interesting that they are both women :0) This event for my country is one of those once in a lifetime. To honor and celebrate her I wanted to share some interesting facts about her life!

God Save The Queen

Ta ta for now

The picture of elegance and beauty. Such a remarkable ambassador of royalty and femininity.

1 Queen Elizabeth II is Head of State in 16 Commonwealth countries including the British Isles and head of the Commonwealth which includes 53 countries. (Over a quarter of the world.) She does not use a passport and during her reign has visited over 129 countries.

Beautiful Lady

2 Queen Elizabeth II is the 40th monarch since William the Conqueror

3 Queen Elizabeth II is the patron of over 620 charities and organizations, she averages 425 engagements a year, which is amazing when you consider that she is 89 years of age.

4 Queen Elizabeth II and Duke of Edinburgh have been married for almost 68 years!!!! It is alleged when she first met him aged 13 she had already decided he would be her future husband. Her wedding dress was paid for with ration coupons. Their marriage has produced four children, eight grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. image

Sending you love and joy for this holiday season. Merry Merry Christmas & may 2023 be full of good health, abundant blessings and brighter times. 🤶 🎄
Good Morning, please don’t let her words and the other female warriors who came before her be in vain. Don’t just remember her and others by watching the documentaries and passing platitudes, respect them in action. Women died, starved and were tortured so we could have a seat at the table. Some women are still fighting for the right! Let’s honor them today whichever side you fall. Vote!! #vote #vote2020 #suffragette #womensuffrage #election2020
#itsnationaldaughterday Best thing I have ever done, teaches me everyday. Is the world ready for this smart, kind, funny force of nature? She is ready to make her mark and I am her biggest supporter. #love #familylife #daughters #thelifestylelady
Gertie says “where is my drink? I rang the 🛎 ages ago” I think it’s a dogs life. She is taking advantage of the cooler weather after a weekend of storms and before the rain hits again this afternoon. #thelifestylelady #gertiethegoldendoodle #dogslife #takealoadoff #relax #relaxing
Today on the blog I get personal and share the dilemma which too many of us are facing and which is keeping me up at night, what to do when there is no clear direction? As mothers we are meant to have the answers, our children look to us for strength and guidance, what to do when we don’t? Please pop over to www.thelifestylelady.com and have a read and let me know what your planning to do. I know that we are all in this together. Keep safe K x #thelifestylelady #covid19school #school #momlife #schooldilemma #covidschooling
This sums it up. Keep going friends. 2020 has challenged every single one of us in ways we could never comprehend, for some we can’t see any light at the end of the tunnel. Events are demonstrating the best and worst of mankind, if like me your having to make tough decisions about school and what to do, you are not alone. I feel stuck between a brick and a hard place. What I intend to do is what I know, get up, keep going and throw on a bright lip! Keep smiling friends x #thelifestylelady #2020sucks #school
Yesterday we celebrated 10 years of marriage, no mean feat by today’s statistics. It was not the celebration or in the place where we had planned, but if Covid has taught me anything it’s that we are not in charge and can not control everything . It is not the bells and whistles that make the most sacred of memories. I am not one for big declarations of affection (sorry y’all,) I share simply this, I got lucky, I married a man I looked up too and respect. He doesn’t need to tell you what a good egg he is because he demonstrates it in his everyday unassuming way. He is a gentleman in all ways. Our decade has not been all plain sailing, we have moved more than some people vote, we have laughed more than we have cried and there has been reason for both. We had our beautiful daughter and although the path was not as easy or as we imagined we are a family. Life rarely goes the way you plan, case in point currently, but it’s a hell of a lot easier with a partner who is always you greatest ambassador and champion. Love like life is a journey and I am glad to do it with you. Happy Anniversary Mr L! #thelifestylelady #marriage #love #anniversary
With a summer where travel is looking impossible, you feel a little homesick, but Granny to the rescue is sending pics of her beloved garden. One of my favorite things about summer in Britain is the beautiful gardens and my mummy’s is no exception. She has always been green fingered, she will say she is not, but here are some highlights and everything has yet to bloom. Can you sympathize with my yearning for home? #grannysgarden #greenfingers #gardenofengland #gardening #home #thelifestylelady
Sometimes the simple things are the most beautiful. Nature is perfect. #thelifestylelady #beauty #peonies #peoniesaremyfavorite
