Happy 2nd Birthday Our Gorgeous Angel

A wonderful day for our gorgeous princess. Full of friends, fairy wings, treasure hunts, sugary treats and gifts.


Angel, you are the light of our lives. Such a strong, independent, warm hearted and loving girl, filling our lives with giggles, smiles and light.

New Swing for Mya

We were a bit concerned that the tree supporting Mya's swing wasn't strong enough, so in true John-style she now has one that will support a 5 ton elephant!

Face painting fun

Entertaining a Poorly Girl

Another bug has hit the house and to entertain Mya we decorated gingerbread butterflies with coloured icing, now I have a toddler on a sugar rush!

Trying on Her New Clothes

Mya received a parcel in the post today from Liz Budden. She was so excited that she wanted to try on the new swimming costume, top, bracelets and hat over her clothes. Bless her.

Baby Lambs

Mya had her first opportunity to feed some orphan lambs today.


A sure sign that Spring is just around the corner.

Mini-break at Ohope

The sun shone on Mya, myself and Gaga this weekend at Ohope. Frosty winter nights but beautiful clear days.

Happy Birthday Lilly

A lovely party today, even with the birthday girl being poorly.

Best Breakfast Ever!

Poor John is working crazy hours at the moment and so the only way to begin his day off is swimming then going out for Mya's favourite breakfast....French toast, bacon, berry compote and Creme fraiche! Deeeeeelicious!
