Kim & Phils

Kim & Phil have been back up north a while now and after threatening to visit we finally made it. They have a lovely cottage on the edge of a hillside which we will take a walk on next time we're there.
We hadn't even got through the door and Kim asked if Isla would be a flower girl for her & Phils wedding in September. Obvioulsy Isla accepted such an honour and I'm sure she will make a beautiful flower girl, I just hope that she behaves herself on their big day.



















Nell was enjoying some cuddles with Phillip and was quite happy to be carried round and enjoy a tour of the house.
We heard all about the wedding plans which sound great, it will be a really special day with all the family there. Kim & Phil look very happy together and we wish them lots of love for a loving & happy marriage.

Day out at Nanny's

Mum had offered to have Isla for the night so kidnapped her first thing in the morning after spending the night. Unfortunately for her me & Nell found ourselves at a loose end so decided to gate crash their fun day out. Mum shouldn't have let slip that it was Hincliffes for lunch as the food there is lovely and I couldn't resist.

Isla is very much like her Mum and Nan and enjoys fine dining, her table manners can be a bit boisterous so its best that we keep her in the high chair but as you can see from the cheeky grin she can cause chaos even frm there!
Today she wasn't too bad and we managed to keep her entertained with some books and toys provided.

After our meal we had a quick look round the farm shop and then out to see the animals that are kept outside. Isla loves the chickens and went over for a little chat, its hard to explain to a 1 yr old that chicklens don't go quack quack but it was good effort Isla.
As you can see Nell wasn't too bothered for talking to the animals and decided on 40 winks instead. We will have our hands full when she's up and about with Isla. Will Nanny take them both then, eh Mum?!
