Queen Elizabeth II

Princess Elizabeth of York 1934 (now Queen Elizabeth II).
Born on April 26th, 1926. Queen Elizabeth has had an extraordinary life. She was to most precious little girl, who grew up in a loving home where the affectionately called her Lilibet.

She was a beautiful bride, and this year celebrated her 66th wedding anniversary. I actually met her when I was in Middle School. She came to open a local clinic, and that day she wore a purple jacket, and matching hat. It's no secret that I'm a royalist.
 
I pin pictures of her and other royals on my Pinterest page. Follow my board here.
