Stories Of Charlotte.

Photos 1 and 2
These are from our trip to Paris in 2009 – oh what fun. Charlotte was amazing as ever coordinating everything to perfection even with a little baby- Seb.
The photo no 1 is from the top of the Eiffel Tower . We had a good giggle from the start of the trip – white wine in St pancreas, when we met at the St Pancras train station in London and of course the giggle did not stop till we got back to the train station in London.
We ate in beautiful restaurants next to the Arc De Triumph and went to see the Moulin Rouge show – which was fantastic. A special memory for us all.

Now this was a fun time. Oh and yes a hen night to for Amanda Bett.
The ridiculous dresses are because of the theme of bad brides maids outfits! I believe Charlotte got hers in the charity shop! The lovely lilac colour and the boufont sleeves were enough to make her the winner!
She won the blow up doll ;-))
We had to eat dinner in those outfits in Chez Joules in Birmingham.

How I met Charlotte.
I met Amanda Bett through ante natal class 2005 and instantly we became the best of friends. It was obvious really that Amanda would have other such wonderful people in her life – one of whom was Charlotte.
I went into see Amanda in the Art lounge one day and was immediately drawn to a painting. I said how I loved it and Amanda told me the Artist was her friend Charlotte Latham and that she was coming to town!
It was years ago and am sorry to say I can’t remember the exacts!- (I also was pregnant and had a toddler too!) But I recall being drawn to such a beautiful person (Charlotte)and after dinner was introduced to such equal beautiful otis cat at the house in Moseley. The artwork on the walls was amazing and for someone not arty I have to say they took my breath away.
Conversations progressed as did pregnancies and Charlotte and I found ourselves pregnant and discussing the same Baby boys name – Sebastian!

Time passes quickly – all to quickly and the boys (Mine called Oliver in the end!) grew fast.

I remember a lovely birthday Party in the garden for Seb in the Bristol house just after moving down there and a very special visit from Charlotte back in Birmingham where Amanda and I got to meet the gorgeous Olivia.

Charlotte – you brought elegance and class, fun and laughter to all our girlie outings, the last being Dinner in Miller and Carter before Christmas 2012. Your’re so beautiful.

I guess I will shared with Jenny ensure the organization of our girls trip to Saunton Sands. A place I know you’ve recently enjoyed.

Lots of love, always to whoever reads this.
