29 December 2017 – Snowing in Rothbuy
Our
first week in Rothbury was surprisingly mild, but this morning we woke up to
heavy snow and a winter wonderland
The
children, and their dad, could not wait to get out and play
Chloe,
and Michelle, were not so sure that they wanted any part of it
Fortunately
the “old folk” were excluded from the snow ball fights
A
final group photo and then back to the house to dry off and warm up
After
lunch the snow had stopped and we talked Georgia into walking down to the park
We
did not make this snowman, but we told Georgia we would pretend that we did
She
really wanted to build her own snowman, but she also wanted us to help her
We
managed to talk her into building one at home when Jack could help her
The
park play area was covered in snow and even Georgia agreed to give it a miss
Instead
we walked over the bridge to feed the birds
We
always take some bread with us to the park, she never gets tired of feeding the
ducks
We
had to promise a visit to the sweet shop to get her away from the park
Rothbury
is a very pretty little town, and even more so with a covering of snow
We
all enjoyed our afternoon walk, but were now happy to return home for tea

25 December 2017 – Christmas in Rothbury
With
three young children in the house, Christmas morning always starts early
We
were all on duty by 6am still dressed in our pyjamas
By 7am we were back in bed recovering
Jack
got a scooter for Christmas, and Georgia a bike, so despite the heavy rain we
were out before lunch
Chloe
did not have anything to ride on, but was quite happy to have her dad playing
with her in the park in the rain
After
a large Christmas Dinner most of the adults were back in bed for an afternoon
nap
But
Jan was quite happy to play balloons with Chloe
After
an enjoyable child, food and drink filled Christmas Day, it was nice to get out
on our own on Boxing Day for a six mile circular walk.
