Both children rose at 7am more excited than I have ever seen them, both wondering whether he’d been. It is my job to go and check if he infact has been and he has gone too Read more

Daddy do I look like the scary dance girl Read more
An easy blog this one because I already wrote this one a year ago today Read more
A very good day out at Denver Zoo with Grandma and Nemily it was good to see the children enjoying seeing different types of animals, like brown bears and Gorillas that they do not see at Chester Zoo Read more
To tell the story of the next couple of days 1 year ago is easy because I did write a blog entitled Red Feather Lake (July 1 2013) which sums up our time there. Read more
Packed with supplies for our road trip we set off in two cars (Emily would not be carrying on to Wyoming with us she had to work) North up I25 to Red Feather. Read more
The long planned trip to waterworld as a treat from Auntie Nemily was something both children had been looking forward to but I think they just thought it was going to be a swimming pool, little did they or even I know quite what waterworld was. Read more
On a beautiful day three intrepid explorers set off to explore the lake, little did we know that non of them could row and so 5 days later would need rescuing 150yards from where they set off from? Curly Larry and Mo eat your heart out Read more
We have booked up to go to America in June and July which is pretty exciting and gives us a big date to look forward to, and my mum has also booked to come too. The trip will be Jamie’s going home trip, my summer holiday, Reagan and Lincoln’s big adventure and me mums first trip to the states.
Jamie is already planning the whole thing and looks like we will spend a couple of night in Chicago and stay with Troy Angie Joe Sydney and Ella and then on to Denver for a couple of weeks to stay with Pam Cliff and Nemily. I know Jamie is the most excited, but me mum is up there as well being a CSI (in any form) and I know how she will be when she arrives in America and the things she’ll be looking for, like steam coming out of grids, yellow buses and back alleys with cardboard boxes to crash cars through lol I just know what my image I had before stepping foot in the country and it was all created by cop shows on tv
I am super excited because its a summer holiday and if I’m honest I just want to laze around in the sun for a couple of weeks with Jamie’s family my family and all “our” (I hope I can say that?) friends that we hope to see while we’re there. Also can’t wait to go to Wyoming and see the places Jamie talks so affectionately about so often and get another ‘state’ sign to stand by lol
Well I think its big news and we’re counting the days and today we’re 134 days away 🙂
I have been aware that Nemily was working on a scrapbook for her sister as I have been asked to help on occasion but having now seen the finished product it embarrasses me to even give the impression I helped in the creation of what I can only describe as a piece ART that just so happens to be about our lives. It truly is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen and taking the following photographs could never do justice to how much thought and creative imagination there is or just how much work has gone into every single page.
Your sister has been in tears pouring over every inch of her scrapbook and is certain she has the best sister in the world (although Lincoln disagrees hehehehe) I have looked through it twice and photographed it once and I do not think I have seen half of what you have put into it. You must have spent hours and hours creating it and I just want to say you have made your sister very happy and proud today because she has been gushing to anyone who will listen about what a great sister you are…although I know she knew that before.
