Empire building

We love the local castle museum.
The castle dates from the Norman conquest and is now a wonderful municipal style museum with a little bit of everything. A great spot for some cold/wet weather jumping about. The membership scheme also means it's cheap to visit most times we pop 'up the city'. In the basement there are a number of groovy interactive items for the kids to get their hands on.

We're back!

Look, our camera broke last August so we sent it away to be assessed and they tried to charge us a tonne of cash to repair it. We then did some research and found a load of great cameras for really good prices so we should have bought one of those. But no, we sat on our hands for ages until last week when we finally just went onto amazon and got a great deal on a canon thingumyjig.
Should be more stuff coming soon.

The odd rainy day

Stuck inside.








There have been a few rainy days, not many, but one or two.

July 4th and all that

We were unable to capture Henry's 'Keith Moon' moment as the photographer had to rush to catch the flying cymbal!
July 4th! Henry as George Washington!
A future Supreme Court Justice.

Beachcombing

Have green watering can, garden tool obsessed toddler will travel.

















We went to the beach, we paddled, saw sailing boats and big ships and had a lovely time!

Summertime

A first taste of ice cream!





Hanging out in the backyard.
