2008! So far so good.

Tigger enjoyed seeing in the New Year in with us... despite having to wear Mrs Fenchurch's gift of a spangly collar. Richard (Jim) and Emma came down to eat and play some games with us then we were invaded by some welcome "first footers" just before midnight when Rob, Leila & Rob and Becky came around.

Emma woke mercilessly early the next morning and was treated to some finger paints.

On the 2nd Helen, Leila, Emma and I went on a walk in Churchill. It was quite a nature trail especially when we saw this deer bounding across a field.

Leila took this picture of the three of us in front of the pigs.

One of the pigs had escaped as the electric fence wasn't working.

She ended up walking along the path with Leila!

Here are some pictures of Emma persecuting Tigger with a clothes hanger.



Poor pusscat! He's not safe anywhere. Not even in the window with the hyacinths.

Emma's been enjoying the shape sorter from her Granny. I think she's gradually learning her colours. She can say all the colour words now except orange. She likes saying yellow the best.

Here she is proudly standing in a toy oven tray.

On Sunday we went for a long walk along the Clevedon seafront ending up with a roast in Campbell's Landing. We then walked down the pier and took some photos of an epic game of peek-a-boo around the old Victorian iron structures.
