Easter Break


I hope you all had a lovely Easter, our son, daughter in law and grandson Eugene came to stay Thursday to Saturday.  The sun shone and we sat in the garden, it's been a while since we did that!  I can't believe that Eugene will be one year old later this month. 







Our daughter in South Africa sent Eugene a voice message telling him how much she loves him, he loved hearing his name. I look forward to the time they all meet for real. 

As my husband is the church pastor we waited till after lunch on Easter Sunday before we headed over to Dove Cottage in Wales. We had planned on doing some work in the cottage and taking some trips out. 

We woke on the Monday to snow on the field and mountains opposite but had decided to head to the coast where the sun shone and we managed a picnic. I will post about that trip another time. 

We had taken a trailer with us of items for the cottage, we have oak and glass doors for when hubby builds his studio down the garden and new windows for the front of the cottage. These jobs will be done at a later date but we managed to lay new oak flooring in the kitchen and upstairs landing which is looking great. 










Molly loves to sit on the bedroom window sill looking out at the sheep and new born lambs :)

birthdays

This week saw two family birthdays, sadly we weren't able to travel to Devon to help celebrate so made do with these lovely photos of our grandsons 4th birthday. They celebrated with a camping party in their garden together with family and friends. Our daughter had her 36th birthday the following day.

Gilby Skipp just a few days old he was 11lbs when he was born hence those chubby cheeks

                              

My daughter makes amazing part food, Gilby had asked for a cake with a tent on it :)


This is their tent, Gilby attends a music group and the man who runs it also does parties for children so he was invited over to Gilbys party to sing camping songs with the children

Thankfully the weather was perfect after a few days of wind and rain
