It’s the Queen’s 90th Birthday today and to commemorate this special day I am doing a roundup of 5 fabulous posts I have found over the years on the “Early Days” of the Queen’s life (aka The vintage years). Happy Birthday to the Queen!

Looking thru all these photos, what I would not give to have one or 2 of her dresses. Don’t you agree?

Now in honour of the Queen’s birthday I’m going to have some Tea and maybe a piece of cake later on today.

Have a marvelous day friends!
