Sarah & Leo's Wedding

We were really pleased to be invited to the wedding of Sarah Traylor and Leo Saunders at Woolpit Church. Matthew and Joe dressed up in smart trousers and shirts and I even wore a dress! Debbie came too, with Henry, and Claire brought Sarah along.

In the evening just Matthew, Joe and me went off to Jokers in Stowmarket for the reception where they had fun running round the dancefloor with their friends from school!

Time Team day at Needham Lake

With Gran Fran, Michelle and Louise visiting we decided to head to one of the brilliant Ranger afternoons at Needham Lake. They got to examine artifacts, make clay pots and mosiacs, and even disect (fake) poo! Lesley Dolphin was there from BBC Radio Suffolk and they stalked her for an autograph before Matthew managed to get a speaking part on the radio!

Snetterton

We spent the weekend camping with Andy, Grandad Dingles and Uncle Skott.

It was actually pretty good fun despite the odd annoyance from Andy and Skott!

Joe got a little carried away with his camera!

The ear defenders were a hit

Joe found himself a new friend to play with!

Andy slept through several races!

Joe's mini-holiday

With Matthew away Joe gets to do some fun things too. Since Matthew went he has had a fun bubble-bath

Tomorrow we are going to Snetterton to meet Grandad Dingles and Uncle Skott and watch the racing, before camping for the night! Joe is very excited and insisted on getting the tent out ready before he would go to sleep tonight!

6 sleeps to go......

Matthew's gone off for his holiday with Andy's parents and we're counting down now til the big day. As the operation gets closer I do get more worried, trying to keep calm and I know it will be fine, but given that last time everything that could go wrong, did, this time I'm a little nervous!

Holiday Toddler Group at Debbies's House

We went along to toddlers to see our bantam chicks that Debbie has hatched for us but stayed to play for a while too. Matthew's friend Ben was there and they decided that pink gloves and wig looked so much fun they had to take turns wearing them!

Ooh La La!

Tractor Fun

There is a meadow opposite our house that Jeremy (a Music Teacher) was given by his uncle when most of Quaker Farm was sold off and he keeps it just for hay and to give him chance to pootle about on his many tractors! This year both boys but especially Matthew have become good friends with Jeremy and whenever he can he lets them drive the tractor. They helped with turning the hay and then making the bales. Matthew's already asked to help next year!
