Santa Claus is coming to... Lacock!

Ben had a great time in Lacock Abbey's cosy kitchen meeting Father Christmas and listening to a story read by Mrs Christmas...

Christmas at Tyntesfield

We had a lovely afternoon in Tyntesfield (National Trust). The house had been decorated in the style of a Victorian Christmas and very splendid it was too! We were all encouraged to join in on a 'sing-a-long' and though there were lots of shy looking faces at first, everyone got into the spirit of things and enjoyed singing along to Jingle Bells and the 12 Days of Christmas. Nothing like a good ol' sing-a-long!

The countdown begins!

Happy Birthday Adam!

It was Ben's friend Adam's 7th birthday yesterday and he chose a select few to check out the new 'bounce house' room at a local softplay centre. The boys all had a great time, bouncing to their heart's content. Then we all headed over to Mcdonalds for some much needed lunch.

Bonfire Night Fun

We headed over to Christian Malford to enjoy the bonfire and fireworks. What a great display!

October Half Term Fun!

We had a great half term, enjoying visiting lots of different places. We went to Tyntesfield, Lacock, Whitehall Garden Centre (Papa's favourite place!!), Bath, Slimbridge, cinema and even squeezed in a Halloween party at Ben's friend Adam's house. Phew! Back to school/work for a rest :-)

Happy Christening Day Jacob!

We had a lovely time at baby Jacob's Christening yesterday, here are a few pics!

A lovely time in Lacock..

Ben had Monday off school as it was a TD day.... so we hopped on the bus to Lacock Abbey and had a lovely time enjoying a very quiet Lacock Abbey and grounds. Its not often we get the rope swing all to ourselves, so we made the most of it!
