The Great Outdoors

Here is a random selection of photos from the last couple of weeks...


Alby and Charlie helping with the house work.


Three little monkeys out with their mums for coffee.


Jamie, Gabe and Alby are best mates.


Don bought some scrap timber and some bags of sand to make a sandpit for the boys.




Lou, Wash and Gabe came over for a picnic.


Alby painting outside.


 Cuddles with Mum while Dad is in Portugal filming.




It was early starts and long days working on the WRC for Don but it has always been a dream of his to work on this race so he was stoked! 




Rhododedron relocation...

 

Charlie is in charge of the watering.


Alby made sure the tree made it to it's new home without a hitch.



We had a lovely family dinner at a local fish restaurant


We dug out this large porcelin tub from under a bush to use as a herb garden.


Alby and Charlie doing laps. 


Our raised beds are starting to grow.



Alby the race car driver.


Charlie the gardener.


And some energy left over to have a noisy bath in the evening.

Lots of love from Copse Corner.

Gardening

Winter has nearly left us (it snowed again last week) and we are getting our new garden sorted with a little help from the boys.


Our landlord Mike kindly gave us a little garden shed which we rolled into place.



Alby was very helpful carrying tools around in his wheelbarrow.


Anna and I dug in a new garden bed at the back of our garden with help from Charlie Bear.


Even while taking important phone calls, Alby helped put in some veges.


And move some dirt.


Charlie got very dirty


And Dad finished the shed.


We had our friends Nate, Dan and Leigh over for an easter egg hunt.


 The wave of 2nd Birthday parties continues with feed of chicken and chips at Chloe's party...


Taking centre stage at Charlotte's party..


Diggers and firemen at Gabriel's party.. 



While Charlie was content sinking into the ball pool.


Alby loves dad's motor bike helmet


Charlie has 2 new teeth and is back to being a happy chappy.


Dad has been away for work a few times including filming this rally in Monaco.



While Dad is away Alby has stepped up to keep things ticking over nicely.


See you soon!
