Bradford on Avon & Avebury

We took another trip to Bradford on Avon for our wedding anniversary on Sunday. It was a beautiful day - cold but sunny. We walked for 2.5 hours so we felt it was justified to have lunch out ;-). After a refreshing cup of tea and piece of cake at Nanna & Grandad's house we then went on to Avebury (mini Stonehenge) where it was just getting dark and Ben had great fun running around the stones (although he did eventually 'hit the wall' and had a bit of a meltdown towards the end but we will try and forget that part!). A lovely day out.

Weekend Fun

What a busy weekend! After a Friday afternoon playdate with Ben's friend Henry we whisked Ben off to see the arrival of Father Christmas at Whitehall. Ben was very excited to see him and even though he was late (bad weather in the North Pole apparently) it was worth the wait for Ben to see real reindeer carry Santa on his sleigh and do 3 laps of the Whitehall garden :-) Then there was an unexpectedly good firework display but sadly fireworks are a bit difficult to take pictures of but I have included a couple anyway. Then Saturday we made the mistake of going shopping in a very busy Bath, then Justin went out for a 10 mile run and out with friends in the evening for a curry. And on Sunday we decided to go for a walk in Bradford on Avon (note the gold post box in honour of an Olympic gold medal winner from BoA) and then on to Nanna & Grandad's house to see Uncle Nick who was visiting for the weekend. Here are a selection of pics!

Flour Power

Ah, the sign of a good baking session, covered head to foot in flour...
