March

Well as ever, March was quite an eventful month. We started out with that awful virus that was going around, debilitating the whole household for a good week, then the boiler was condemned and we spent another evening at A&E making sure that the carbon monoxide poisoning hadn't harmed us too much. Between the illnesses, here is a taster of what we have been up to.

A close up/Macro photography workshop at my camera club.

First wedding job of the year!

An early birthday lunch with Anna and the Godbaby.

This Week

 Improvements in the garden. Growing broad beans, strawberries getting big and finally some colour.

 A super duper shopping trip instigated by Dan!

 Quiet country drives exploring our neighbouring villages.

An after school National Trust trip to Stoneywell. 

 Our first meal from our garden.

Catch Up

It's been a busy few weeks. After Christmas, I hoped things would settle down some, I should be so lucky. We seem to have March fully booked now, with lots going on. Of course March always means Mothers Day shortly followed by my birthday (though they have coincided once!). But this year we have the added event that is King Richard III's re-interment. Louie has had a longstanding interest in King Richard, so this will be a big deal in our household, especially as the cortege bringing his body from Bosworth to Leicester Cathedral will be passing through our village! Very exciting!

 
But in busy times, it isn't so easy to get the camera out for nice photos, so of course the next best thing is camera phone! Even when the blog is quiet, we still hang out on instagram! Hopefully we will all be feeling better soon (we still have the hideous cough lingering in the household, hopefully no more emergency trips to the doctors!) and we can get out and enjoy the beautiful spring light which we enjoyed yesterday.
