THANKSGIVING!

Despite having a yankee Dad, due to never being in the States for the date I have never had a proper thanksgiving celebration.

Thanks to Ali, we were able to change that in 2014 and we all shared the most brilliant day and evening in Buxton and indeed a tradition for the Bywater family has begun.

Fun was to be had at each table :-) 

....and celebrations continued well into the night 

WONDERFUL visit to see Auntie T and EVA!!

The boys and I had a fantastic time visiting T and Eva in Wantage.

Bath time proved to be a VERY big excitement!

First there was one....

Then there was too .........

then there were THREE little bottoms all lined up ready for bath time! 

Thankfully the stair rails prevented Felix from his usual Houdini acts 

 Snuggly, lovely story time <3

We were also so lucky to be able to catch up with London friends Samina and Daisy who the boys thought were pretty special too! 

Breakfast after sleepover 

And a date at a fabulous farm shop the next day 

Eva didn't hesitate to pass off her greens to Felix 

We even managed to get a snuggle with our gorgeous Jane 

Visit to see Uncle George and Aunt Peggy

We had the most wonderful visit to Tick Hill in Doncaster to meet Jeremy's Great Uncle George and Great Aunt Peggy who we bonded with immediately. 

Uncle George was VERY good and reading stories

And they were SO kind to give the boys beautiful new jerseys AND books! 

Family resemblance?! 

We cannot wait for more cuddles Uncle George and Aunt Peggy!
