Down by the Farm!

Well it's taken me a good few days to do this again, but another busy week in the Stewart house!
So back to last week we were up to our usual things, then on Thursday Auntie Karen, Emma and Lucy came to visit us for the last time of this visit as they were heading home the next day. We went over to the airport to get them then they came here for tea. Whilst I was sorting tea, the girls all played with the Playdough, which Holly and Natalie were just delighted about.

Natalie with playdough Barney!!

We were really sad to see them go, especially Holly as she loves her cousins. She has been telling me she is going to Canada to play in Auntie Karen's garden on the swing ever since they left!

On Friday Ian was off for the day as I had to go and get a tooth out (one of my 4 baby teeth!) It wasn't a pleasant experience, but has healed up really quickly. On Saturday Grannie and Granda Toys were here, Granda and Ian had the patio and path to finish, which they did and it all looks great. The girls had lots of fun with Grannie as always.

On Sunday we went over to Doonies Miniture Farm which we have never been to before, even though it's only 5 minutes away. It was really nice, lots of animals to look at, this was my favourite, the fluffy sheep...

The girls weren't too taken with the animals though, they were both a bit scared. Natalie kept saying 'Not Nice' and Holly was saying 'I'm too scared' and we had to carry her round the place. They are both wee sensitive souls! There was a playpark there too, here is Holly doing some of her daredevil climbing........

The girls did eventually come round to the idea of the animals and here is Natalie delighted with the 'Baa-Baa' (please note most animals are baa-baas!!)

And Holly eventually touching one of the sheep....

This week has been back to normal really after the summer holidays, visitors etc. Holly is just loving Pebbles, it was 'Red Week' this week so she has been taking in red toys and wearing red ribbons in her hair. I am on duty on Monday so I will get to see exactly what they get up to. I was at the Pebbles AGM on Wednesday night and am now the Treasurer, oh oh what have I let myself in for!

Well that's it for now,

Mike's Birthday BBQ

Hi Everyone, OK so it has taken me a week to do this blog that I promised, we have just had such a busy week I haven't had a chance. So here it is a week late!

Last Saturday Sarah arranged a 30th Birthday BBQ for Mike at their flat. All of the family were there as well as their friends and Angela, Martin and Matthew. Sarah had done a great job and the flat looked ace, everything was in a golf theme.

So here are some photos....

It was a really great day, the food was fab and the kids loved running about and spending time with the family and Matthew. We all had a great day, as did the Birthday Boy!

Well that's it for now, I do have more photos of this week, but will do them another night.

Bye for now!
