Pedal Power!

We took the plunge and removed Ben's stabilisers from his bike... Justin totally handled the whole situation like a pro and with lots of patience and encouragement, Ben was off! We have a way to go yet but an excellent start. Well done Ben!

Is there a Doctor in the house?

Fore!

Ben and I rounded off the Easter holidays with a game of crazy golf this morning. I'm not sure if we have the next Tiger Woods in the making but it was good fun!

First Mr Whippy of the year!

Enjoying an ice-cream in Lacock with friends Toby and Ethan.

Flooded Avebury!

We took a trip over to Avebury yesterday to check out their Easter Egg hunt. I think Ben had more fun splashing in the puddles and squelching in the mud!

The Scarecrow Trail season begins...

You may recall last year we took part in several scarecrow trails.... and here we are back on the scene (baby)! The first one being the Christian Malford (a lovely village just outside Chippenham) trail which had the theme of children's book characters. There were 48 scarecrows in total and we managed to guess about 40 of them...if you are wondering why Ben is holding a picture of a doll, we are currently helping cousin Lucy out with her 'Flat Stanley' homework project...

Happy Birthday Alfie!

Ben had a great time at Alfie's birthday sports party.... football, running, dodgeball.... and after a Dominos pizza lunch, it all rounded off with some party games. (Alfie is the boy who is standing up in the photo with the rest of them sat down during 'Chinese Whispers'). We took home a very tired Ben!
