Build a Bear

Hogmanay and New Year's Day
Coffee at The Old Mill after our Jan 1st walk
Firstfooting at our old house
Dressed up for Hogmanay
Boxing Day Duck Race
This is a lovely day out - a duck race for charity. You "buy" a duck and walk along the riverbank in Abbey Fields to see which duck wins. Lots of families and camaraderie and a good walk after the inertia of Christmas Day.
Catch Up
Since moving house in December our computer life has been a little slow hence the lack of blogging so it's time to catch up. I'm still debating about phones, laptops, notebooks, Apple etc and really could do with making a decision for business reasons but I'm still weighing it all up.
For now...a Christmas selection...
The fab cake class I went to at the Centre that we go to. Martha went into creche and I made a cake, made almond paste and then made royal icing. It was a nice switch-off time and I knew it was the only way I would get a cake made this year.
We had a fantastic meal at church with amazing entertainment and a sing-a-long. The tables were beautiful, the food wonderful and it was a lovely festive evening. Martha was great all night and we got to stay for it all which was another bonus.
Cradle Club Christmas Party - they had reindeer - it was very exciting for mummies!
Martha cried at Santa at first but then she was quite taken with him.
We moved house on 5th December and my parents moved down from Scotland on the 17th December - what a mad month it was. They sold their house after 40 years to come and live nearby us. We celebrated with a bottle of Bolly and a meal.

6 Months of Fun
Martha was 6 months old on 24th November so we commemorated the day by going to the Crazy Kiln and doing foot and hand prints onto coasters and Christmas baubles to give as presents. It was great fun - it was just the two of us and the lady in the shop (Laura) helped us and fed Martha while I painted. It's such a nice place to go...we have been back since and I plan to go again soon.
The last 6 months have been amazing!
