What we've been up to....

Firstly, and most importantly, Phoebe's Godfather came to visit!
Guy has decided that if even the horses are wearing their coats,
he will deign to wear his!

As the weather gets wetter the cats are spending more and more time indoors!
We went to Bicester Village - again!

Then down to London on the train,

And the tube,
To visit the dinosaurs!
Guy is equally frightened and fascinated by the dinosaurs! Particularly the animatronic ones!
Then back home in time for bed!

Something to get you in the mood for Sunday!

A quick Sunday message from Phoebe:

SUCH a great weekend!

We started by going shopping at Bicester Village - which is more fun than it sounds!
Then back to listen to some seriously energetic folk music!Phoebe was drawing the band as they were playing. Then she presented the band with her portraits at the end of their set. I think The Reverenzas have their first groupie!
How she thought she could get Guy to sleep is beyond me!
Anyway, after that we went swimming;



Then, on Sunday we went to play conkers in the drizzle with our MayBe friends.

As part of the service, we had five loaves and two small fishes. Here are the left-overs! Not quite twelve baskets full!

Then a quiet afternoon at home, followed by an early dinner at our local Pizza Restaurant with friends.

The boys enjoying their ice-cream and "coffee" (frothed milk)


A good time was had by all!

A modern re-working of a classic!

Phoebe learned a song about Goldilocks at school today.
Take it away Phoebs......

Phoebe's Fifth!

Remember this cake from last year?

Well, after much discussion, Phoebe has eschewed options of mermaid cakes, Dora cakes, Disney princess cakes, butterfly cakes, and even Barbie cakes! No, what she has opted for is........
Exactly the same as last year!

Rapunzel is back in her tower, and all's right with the world!
Happy Fifth Birthday, Phoebe!
