2013 week 51

The week before Christmas is obviously taken up with wrapping presents and writing cards. It is inevitable that there is a breakage along the way! Sorry Alexei’s godmother. Oops. Hope the others got to their destination safely! I also had an opportunity to take some photos of my husband posing for a book he has […]

2013 Week 50

Obviously this time of year is busy with Christmas activities for the children, and this week started with Alexei and his infant school mates performing their nativity show. Alexei had the role of a shepherd and got into character very well, walking on to the stage bent over and heavily leaning on his crook … […]

2013 Week 49

YEY, I am up to date, finally. Phew. As it is so close to Christmas, I have mainly been trying to organise myself for that this week, but when Alexei had the privilege of bringing home Leo The Lion for the weekend, I was under instruction to take pictures of them both over our BUSY […]

This week has been taken up with birthday celebrations for a special little boy. Felix turned 4 which is quite possibly the most exciting age ever. Guess who’s 4? Kind big brother kicked off the celebrations by reading him a story! After dropping the big boys at school, I took the little two for a walk […]

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 […]
