11th May 2016

I did intend to do my blog while I was away but for some reason I didn't get round to it.
I took lots of photos while we were there so I'm going to add them a few at a time over the month.
It was quite cold while we were there until a week before we came home. Roland loved it and was outside mending fences, cutting down trees, chopping firewood and playing with the goats.

February is nearly over, two more days as it is leap year.

Only a week ago we were at our Great Grandsons 4th Birthday Party

I think Leo really enjoyed his party and so did the rest of us

February 2016

It's been quite a while since I blogged last. I keep thinking about it but never get round to it so I'm doing it now before time is moving on.

These are the photos I took for a photograph forum on UKscrapping

We had to take photos of a flower something red and hearts

On Thursday we looked after Saiorse while her mum went out to have her hair done

and go out for a birthday High Tea

We had a lovely day

Yesterday we went to our great grandsons birthday party another brilliant day. Photos tomorrow

November 26th 2015

I've really neglected my blog lately. When I couldn't get my photos down loaded I gave up.

We had a lovely time in France. Daughter, Catherine, joined us for 10 days and we did a bit of sight seeing.

Since we got back I have had 2 lovely busy crafting weekends but unfortunately I picked up a bug somewhere and have not been well since. I am just beginning to feel a little better now but still feeling weak.

I will down load France photos over the next few days.

I've been meaning to blog since we got here but I've only got round to it today. It is a while since I last blogged and so much has happened since then I have forgotten quite a great deal of what has been going on.

Last Day of June

On Wednesday 17th June or little Saoirse, slipped on the kitchen floor and broke her leg. It was an awful day she ended up in the childrens ward with her leg in traction. She and her mum were there for a week while they waited for the swelling to go then exactly a week later they put both legs in pink plaster and sent her and her mum home.

The poor little might was very frustrated not being able to get around and made life hard work for her mum but yesterday she discovered she could shuffle around on her bottom so is much happier.

Meanwhile her big brother Oliver has been staying with us so he can get some sleep (she is waking up a lot in the night and screams)and granddad can take him to school and pick him up.

June 2015

June is nearly over and quite a great deal has happened this month.

 

Earlier this month Roland went to the hospital about his aneurisms. The doctor said that they didn't want to do anything at the moment but would keep an eye on them. They said they would do another scan next year. 
I'm not too happy about this as it is a worry to us that they might burst at any time even though the specialist doesn't seem to be worrying.

After that we went on holiday down to Devon.
We had booked a holiday for Roly and Lou at Woodford Bridge and they went down on the Saturday.
We had booked a week starting on Sunday at the same place but hadn't told them. When we arrived at their door they had a big surprise, luckily they were pleased to see us and we had a brilliant week.

Some highlights of the holiday
