2013 Week 42

My husband said something really lovely to me this week: that he was happy with his life, even though he is working a little bit too hard at the moment. Having just set up his own business this year, that is a good sign! He asked me if I was happy, and I must say […]

2013 Week 40

Wow week 40, that seems like the final stretch of the year is here! Luckily, our weather is STILL amazing. We are all happily enjoying it. It was a busy week, too busy for my camera until the weekend. Othello Live (amazing, amazing, amazing) and Grand Designs Live (interesting and fun and prompting my mind […]

2013 Week 39

The weather has continued to be stunning for Autumn, even if some days have started cold. Because of this, despite another busy weekend, and with sore heads from the night before, we decided we should fit in a family walk and enjoy our gorgeous countryside whilst the weather remains clement. So, a visit to the piggies […]

2013 Week 38

2013 Week 34

2013 Week 31

Still on  our camping holiday, we had lots of fun around the campsite and spending time with family who were still around after the wedding. Barnaby took this one of Auntie Karin The two brothers – mirror image? We raided a knights shop …. and were asked to leave. Poor Felix – he was in […]

2013 Week 30

During this week we celebrated our wedding anniversary, saw the end of school and went on holiday, starting with a wedding! What a great start to a holiday. We took the euro tunnel over to France  – the kids always enjoy this crossing and Willow had some fun as well! After a loooooooong journey down […]
