Royal Wedding or Space Shuttle Lift Off?

Why BOTH of course!  It's a big day!

I just couldn't ignore anyone who knit the royal wedding.  Check this out here.

And of course, Space Shuttle  with so many of my friends' beads and one of mine too...

Mine is on the top row, fourth from the left. It's dark green with some red-ish/orange dots.

Isn't this cool?  This is the actual way the beads will go into space.  I found this on Jamie Newton's FB page, (thanks Jamie!), along with the caption and tags.

STS-134 "Space" Beads of Courage being packed properly before being stowed with other middeck hardware upon Space Shuttle Endeavour. Mission: "Flight to the ISS on 04/19/11 to encourage children battling life threatening diseases."

What a busy Friday for really important stuff!  Okay, perhaps not the top, but still a day of celebratons.  Wishing you the best too!
