The Singing Ringing Tree

It has been a while since we made the trip up to Crown Point to take a look at the Singing Ringing Tree, so long that Louie had forgotten all about it! Well our last visit was in 2012! We admired views of Pendle and Burnley and made friends with some sheep before getting on to Dylan's third birthday party.

Mr and Mrs Hancock

Today we celebrated the wedding of Dani and Rob. It has been a long time coming, having being planned for at least two years but it was worth the wait. It was a lovely day spent with our family and lots of new friends too!

Burnley

Just as usual, we spent the days after Christmas with our northern family up in Burnley. Though the floods of Storm Eva/Frank had hit quite badly, we were quite safe and dry in Poppar's house.
We seemed to have a very busy few days, fixing cars and visiting family, but we spent most of our time with Dani and the kids. Oh what fun they had!

Bonfire Night

This year we maintained our Bonfire tradition of spending the weekend with the fam in the north. We went up late Friday night and spent Saturday milling around trying to appease a still poorly Mr Bee. We plied him with M&S Jaffa Cakes and an Octonauts magazine in an attempt to cheer him up! In the evening we stayed at Poppar's house this time, for some little fireworks in the garden before pie, peas and lemon meringue pie courtesy of Grandma Valerie. Delish.
And not to mention the hilarious banter that always ensues at these get togethers ;)
