Andrew's First Day at School

Finally, the day came for Andrew to go to school.

Here are some photos of the big day. Looking smart, not sure how long the clothes will be so clean and new looking?

He had a great time.

Brownies

Amy took her Brownie Promise last night. She was word perfect and talked competently about the Brownie Law about thinking of others, good deeds... I missed of the detail.
It was great to see her do this and here is a photo - she is real please.

Andrew's Five

In the blink of an eye, Andrew is five. He had a great party on Sunday at Mill Farm. 32 kids (we had only counted on there being 30 there) enjoyed the day and the ride on the tractor.

It's been a while....

I know, I know... it has been a while since we last updated. Too busy doing to be blogging..

Never mind, here are a couple of shots taken over the weekend. The first is Amy at the Valentine Disco. the second is of both Amy and Andrew (along with Hiking Harold from the nursery class) doing some ceramic painting in Edinburgh.

Western Caribbean

Wow! Pam and I have just returned from a trip to the Caribbean and we had a fantastic time. Amy and Andrew insisted that they spend the week at Peterhead (thanks to Ann and Peter for persuading Amy and Andrew to do that!) while Pam and I jetted off across to the US. First of all we spent a couple of days in Houston. It was typically American, obsessed with cars and oil. We didn't have long there, but just long enough for Pam to shop so much that we had to buy another suitcase to get it all home. We are all enjoying our cowboy boots.

Two days later we boarded the Carnival Conquest from Galveston headed for the Western Caribbean. A week of fantastic weather, great food and wonderful ports of call. We called at Jamaica, Grand Cayman and Mexico. Each port was very different, interesting and so hot!

We are home now, and it is 35 degrees Celcius colder and we have lost 3 hours of daylight. Never mind, we could always go looking for it again next year.... I hope that you enjoy looking at the photos.

Amy's 7th Birthday

7 years old already. And another party to prove it. This year she shared it with Harvey and 35 chums from school. As well as party games, and a bouncy castle there was a nail bar and a tattoo parlour (temporary). Everyone had a great time, lots to eat and drink and they were all collected on time looking tired having had a lovely time. Roll on Andrew's in February!
