We've just had a wonderful visit from Auntie Rebecca (my brother Will's wife), who stopped in with us on her way home to Washington DC from a conference in Copenhagen. She arrived Tues night and stayed until Sunday morning and the whole week was great. Here we are grocery shopping with the kids and "Spencer Bear".
One of the many family meals that we enjoyed together (Rhiannon took this photo).
Being a little bit crazy (in a good way) with the troops as we dropped them off for a sleepover on Saturday night. Since this day was my birthday, Rhodri arranged for the kids to stay over at Sophie/ Oscar's house so we could stay out late and have some fun!
We went into Brighton for the afternoon and walked around exploring. I wanted to find a replacement flannel shirt for the one that Judy/ Joe gave me for Christmas in 1995 and has finally become no longer acceptable to wear in public. So I found a nice soft previously used flannel shirt for £5 sort of near where this cheesy photo board was.
The other thing I wanted to do on my birthday was throw rocks into the sea before sunset. I am not very skillful at throwing rocks but its just fun trying.
Me and Rebs, with Beaker.
We met up with my cousin Annie and walked around a bit more (dark now), then went for a swifty at a olde worlde pub and then we went for dinner at Jamie Oliver's Italian restaurant. So fun!
Our dinner reservation was at 5:30pm which was nice and early (and the time we normally eat anyway) and left plenty of time to not rush in order to get to the Comedy show at Komedia Brighton which started at 8pm. Then we drove home and got in around midnight. What a great birthday! Thanks Rhods for organizing everything :-)
