Too cute

Mini railway

Mini railway at Edisford Bridge. Never seen it running before and had always thought it was an abandoned relic from the past. Today went we all took a ride. 50p donation. Brilliant fun.

Sister love

Introducing Ira to the joys of pebble throwing at Edisford Bridge.

 It takes time to master wellies on rock.












Kit loves Ira........

.....but sometimes babies are really annoying when they mess around at the top of the slide.

Cow eggs

The cows have returned to the field across the road. So have the eggs that the cow-man leaves for us in exchanged for using our hosepipe to water the cows.

Some of the eggs were broken when I spotted them outside - I suspect those pesky peacocks.

Daddy is flying!

We took Daddy indoor skydiving for his birthday this year. He didn't seem too pleased about it at first, and seeing a girl being carried out to an ambulance on arrival didn't help. Once in there though he loved it, and as with everything else was annoyingly good at it.

Freezing in Southport

Easter Bunny left us a pretty good stash this year.


Bubs enjoyed hunting for the eggs more than any of us had imagined she would. She was frantic in her excitement. 

The weather lady said it would be nice, so we set off to Southport. It was freezing. 




We introduced Bubs to the joys of the seaside arcade. 





And of course, its never too cold for ice-cream. 

Pih Pih Vs Simpson Pih

A trip to see Darren, Nicky and Ben turned into a very competitive family football match in Sefton Park. Bubs was more interested in the leftover sandwiches than the beautiful game.
