Pictures!!

great to see more pictures, the area looks lovely. Not sure what you are doing Zach!
Busy day today, Henry has blocked and rendered the doorway you wouldn't believe the difference.I drove down and picked Jacob up for the day, he was so good. Asleep in the cot in 'childrens'room tonight! He's brill running everywhere.
Mae has not just been laughing today but chuckling!
New fridge/freezer coming this week, can't wait to get rid of the old one - council taking it Friday. Now i'm working on the dishwasher!
Keep enjoying - Zach don't surf alone! new Portuguese shoes Sarah?!
Lots of love xxx

Hi chaps
Love your last comments Zach. Clearly girls revenge after all that surf widowhood you've been putting Sarah through!!
Well, we've had a busy time getting back into school/work routine. Actually I am not coping even more than usual on the old domestic front. Muck and mess even getting me down, I, who usually turn a blind eye to the lived in look.
Will was delighted to receive your card Sarah and I'm sure has lots to tell you about school. I think he is enjoying it immensely - unlimited space to play footy, loads of new mates, and haven't heard too much about the actual lessons. Noticed he had two lots of homework already, but he says that can wait til weekend, ummm....
The end of the holiday almost caught me by surprise and I realized the day before that I hadn't actually sewn any name tapes into Will's uniform. I had a sudden pang as I laid out his trousers - elasticated waist pulled as tight as it would go due to will's dimensions being that of a pencil or an anorexic peg doll - and felt very uncontrollably tearful. Of course dad was full of sympathy - not! and told me to pull myself together and not be so ridiculous. Thankfully, motherly affection and fluffiness had evaporated this morning as William did his best to grind Alicia down over breakfast. So, all back to normal and the term is underway.
Work was not nearly as bad as I anticipated, and I feel a bit more in the swing of it all.
Still deliberating over new carpets and not quite finished decorating the bedroom yet but I've big hopes it will be done before Christmas after next.
Anyway, I hope you make the most of your final 3 weeks or so and dad looks forward to seeing you back at the Forge.
Big Love to you both.
