The Early Bird Catches the first Worm

This Morning we were all up and about very early. Kellyn was very excited when he looked out of his bedroom window to find 2 red Hot Air Balloons travelling through the sky. What could be better than floating over the top of the beautiful Shropshire countryside on a lovely sunny Spring Morning.

We had to run Daddy to work this morning which was a great excuse to take in the morning ourselves. First we stopped at Whittington Castle to visit Billie and Betty's new family of cygnets they have grown up fast.

It was great to visit the castle early as there was no one else around just nature doing its own thing.

Next we decided to head to the mere at Ellesmere there were a lot of water birds here including some new additions.

I was able to take some lovely pictures this morning to take a look please visit http://s416.photobucket.com/albums/pp247/georginamchugh/

Our Garden in June

We are now half way through the year and after the glorious weather we have experienced recently the garden is in full bloom.

The children's seed projects are growing well and nearly in flower .Our beautiful white rose bush lets off its fragrance into the garden more so in the evening which helps to relax us as we sit together admiring the spectacular views over North Shropshire.

Head Shoulders Knees and Toes

This Week as well as our usual practice at counting, Letters etc, we looked at Our body parts Kellyn amazed me with knowing all the parts of the body. He also showed Ceienna has to brush your teeth properly. We have had lots of song and Story time this week. Kellyn enjoyed reading The Hungry Caterpillar most of all. We have also had Story time with Hand Puppets Kellyn and Ceienna enjoyed this and where rolling around the floor laughing.

We worked on the computer, Kellyn typed up words he knew like his name and the names of his favourite toys.

School Time this week has been lots of fun.

Relaxing Canal Side Walk

Yesterday the family headed out after tea for a lovely walk in the Spring Sunshine next to the Montgomeryshire Canal. This was the first time Muzzy had been off his lead when we have been on our walks and never wandered off once, not bad for a 5 month old puppy.


The views along this stretch are breath taking made even more beautiful by the spring time evening sun.

Enjoy the pic's.

Caersws Transport Show

Monday saw the family heading through the country side and over the border to Caersws for the Transport Show once again. We did this show with Rockin last year though this year we did a Car Boot Sale and we were joined by Grandad with his Model farm.

It was a glorious day and there were crowds around Rockin all day long. I even got a chance to have a drive an experience i have written about on the Rockin blog.

We all had a lovely day Kellyn and Ceienna enjoyed looking around the machines and we bought some lovely items from the boot sale as well as selling a few. But the biggest news to come from the show was a reporter taking an interest in Grandads model farm and it will be featured in a national magazine, which is very exciting.

The day rolled quickly by and we all had a fabulous picnic prepared again by Daddy. Cant Wait till Next week.
