Living the good life

We have been really living large here in north Wales, especially taking advantage of the available babysitters Nain and Taid (Grandma and Grandpa in Welsh)! Rhiannon has been going on long walks everyday with Taid Trefor down the road and over the style into the nearby meadow where lots of mama and baby sheep live. Here they are walking down the road -- Rhiannon is the light colored speck and Taid is camouflaged by his brown jacket.We have been able to meet up with more family and friends, such as Auntie Eirlys (holding Tryfan below)And Auntie Mary, who drove all the way up from Aberwystwyth in mid-Wales with her husband Harvey just to see us for the day!We also squeezed in some time at the pub in Betws-y-Coed where we enjoyed a late lunch after shopping. Rhiannon ate lots of rice, cucumbers, red peppers and chips and had a grand time climbing around the booth we sat in.
We also visited with our friends Bleddyn and Geri and their two sons, Ceiro and Meilir. Ceiro is 3 years old and was being very sweet by pushing Rhiannon around on his tractor.
Then they did very fast laps around the kitchen table on little animal wheeliesAfter the kids are in bed, Rhodri and I have been able to sneak out alone! We have been out to dinner, out to see a movie ("Juno"), and out to visit friends. Too bad we only have 1 full day left!
