Bye bye!

We've just waved daddy off to the Isle of Man where he's going digging for a few weeks. Been a while since our last family selfie!

Had a lovely lunch out with mum and Cath at the lake and a surprisingly very successful and relatively painless shopping trip for school shoes, trainers and assorted bits I've lost or thrown out over the summer. After having a rant at the lady in clarks that they only had patent party-looking shoes for lily, she managed to source us some lovely and yet practical ones instead, complete with toe bumpers, cute mice and rabbits....then miraculously also found the last pair of orange flashing trainers for the boy despite having told him they didn't go up to his size. Bingo! 2 happy children!
