The New House

We are very pleased with our new house and are very thankful the move went incredibly well and we have settled quickly.



"Front elevation" - we have a lovely area of grass at the front which gets the sun all day (when the sun shines).



We also have a lovely big garden at the back and side - plenty of room for fun, football, flowers and veggies!



The girls have laid claim to the understair cupboard. It is now officially their hideout. Daa has now fitted a light so it is much easier for them to play in there.



Mammy loves the monkey puzzle tree in next door's garden. It's huge!

Moving

January was an emotional time as we packed up in to prepare for our move into the city. We had a wonderful 7 years in our house - and many precious memories, not least of which was taking each of our three lovely children home here as babies.




What an upheaval!



Thank goodness for parents!



However experience the removal men (Dad and Babba) it is very stressful watching them take all your dear belongings and packing them without the several layers of bubble wrap I would have ideally put round everything ! I'm a very risk averse female!




The last supper - a Newmachar chippy!

Return to Blogging

Where do you start when you haven't blogged for 6 months?





Here is Lois blowing out the candles on her 3rd birthday, back in November.



Helena celebrated her 7th birthday in Shetland with a pool party, in December.



We all celebrated Christmas in Shetland - Andrew's first trip.

Making our own tea

Helena received a kind gift of a recipe book and apron from Auntie Christobel and Uncle Wilbert. Her and Lois made their own pizza for tea. It was great fun and tasted great.

Birthday party for Lois



Lois will be 3 on Tuesday so we had a birthday celebration tonight.



Make a wish




Lois' friends and their mummies, daddies, sisters and brothers were there. Uncle David and Auntie Andrea came too. We had fun - good food, cake, games and Tom and Jerry.



Dora was the star on the birthday cake this year.

Weekend in Faroe


In early November Bogi and the girls went to Faroe for the weekend. Mammy and Andrew stayed at home. Mammy missed her girls very much and promises she won't long for some time on her own for a long time!


Lois says good bye to Andrew at the airport.




The girls enjoyed playing with Durita again.



Playing with Duplo from Uncle Einar
