Topsy and Tim come to stay!

We have been so lucky to have Topsy and Tim come and visit us from New Zealand. They arrived on the Saturday of Easter weekend and leave us tomorrow. We have had such a lovely time with them! 
I took the big boys to meet them at the airport - very very exciting!


On Easter Sunday we had homemade hot cross buns.


And a hunt for some chocolate.





Rupert looked on.


There were lots of stories to listen too.


And then we headed up to the Lake District for a few days 'glamping'. It was a pretty special spot...


No power but a stove to heat and cook from and heat up the hot tub!

Topsy and Tim slept in a cupboard...


And had lots of morning cuddles.


The boys loved it.







We toasted marshmallows...


Rowed a boat...




And made the most of the tub.


Apart from Rupert who made do with the sink.


There was a cafe down the road for cake, a swing and a spot of croquet.



It was a wonderful couple of days.

We've spent the last couple of days pottering at home. We popped into London to see the dinosaurs and lions (another post to follow), did a spot of dressing up and have finally erected the wonderful hammock we received for our wedding.






The time has gone so quickly and we are going to miss Topsy and Tim so much. We have loved having them to stay! Next time we see them will be when we move home to New Zealand!
