England Day Eleven-Running around town and dinner at Auntie Julie's

The day started off with some "frogging."  Yep, catching frogs in the garden.  Then a little cricket with Jack and Matthew.  Then we went to NEXT to spoil my children with some new beautiful clothes. Love English clothes. My favorite places are Marks and Spencer and Next.  http://www.marksandspencer.com/

Love their clothes!  Can't wait for some photoshoots in their new clothes! :)  After Next we went to see my Aunt Tina's parents and Erianna was spoiled with chocolate and a fresh flower to put in her hair.  We got home and got dressed and off to Auntie Julie's house for a delicious dinner and bottle of champagne. Erianna had a great time there, and was able to pick some fresh strawberries for her dessert!  A great day and the reality is setting in that we are leaving really soon, and feel like we just got here! :(

After lunch we met Jack at the track for his competition amongst all the primary schools in the area.  They won the trophy for the boys being the most athletic.  It was a neat event to attend.

Day Five In England- Dunham Park and hanging around the house..

Woke up, fed the rabbit..

Trained Erianna to hang up the washing....

Then a visit to Nana and Grandad's house...

Then a visit to Dunham Park.  http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunham_Massey

The weather was nice and the park was beautiful.  There were deer everywhere, huge old shady trees and buildings full of history.  It was a pleasant afternoon and the kids really enjoyed themselves, too. Here are some pictures from the park..

Drop the bread Erianna and he will stop chasing you.....

Then, after we left the park, it was home for the best dinner in England.  Uncle Mike's chili and salsa... yummmmyyy  and some frog catching for Erianna.... so you can say it was a great day.. :)

England Day Four

Saturday in England...  I had another lazy morning, and didn't get out of bed till around 11.  All I could hear was Erianna and Jack giggling and playing...it was sweet.  I got them dressed and we walked to the village to pick up some Father's Day cards and of course, some sweets.   Then we came home and I allowed Jack to introduce Erianna to the world of video games.. they played Wii, play station, Nintendo DS, and yep you can say my kids live a sheltered life.. Then in the afternoon we went to a farm to buy some fresh local produce and some sweet treats, too.  The kids had a blast at the farm and enjoyed an ice cream treat before we left.

Walking to the village...

I thought this was a neat use for an old dresser!!
