Holiday at Centre Parcs Longleat....

Seems like an age ago now (sorry for being so slow to update this!) but we went to Centre Parcs at Longleat for a week in the Easter hols - we had a great time, thoroughly enjoying the swimming pools and the beach/lake area - I even got a bit of sailing in! Ruby also had her first swim!

My Mum and Dad's Wedding...........

It is almost 32 years since my father died, and a neighbour of Claire's Nana went to my Mum and Dad's Wedding (over 40 years ago!) and still had the photos! It's a small world!

Snow after Easter.....

Snow arrived on the 6th April 2008 - the only really snow of the year! So we got the sledge out and had fun for a morning, but by lunch time it had disappeared!

Martin's Family Visit at Easter......

Here are just a few pictures of when Martin (Neil's Brother), Sarah, Hannah and Thomas visited to meet Ruby at Easter... All five Children together.

Four Generations

When Claire's Mum and Nana visited inthe middle of March, all 4 Generations were together! Here is Ruby with her Great Nana (or simply "Great " as the other 2 call her!) .....
......and Ruby with her Nana, Claire's Mum.

Olivia and Madaline's Christening........

On the 2nd of March, Claire and I were Godparents at the Christening of Madeline and Olivia, twin daughters of Karen and Luigi (Karen is an old work colleague of Claire from Bath). It was also their first birthday, hence the cake which Luigi made (and was up until 1-30am the night before finishing it!) As you can see Emilie adores them, and so does Jakob in his own way! Some pictures from the day........
