Announcements.......



Yes, we have one of our regular announcements to make..........happens every year so none of you will be very suprised.........we are moving house again ( tee hee) (Thank heavens it's NOT the other regular announcement!) We found a place round the corner that has a fully fenced garden and a deck, so it will be a much safer place for the kids to play this summer. It is, however, possibly THE strangest house i have ever seen. It has , and i'm deadly serious, bathroom tiles on the walls in the lounge, carpet in the bathroom, a funny little mini-garden in between the lounge and the hallway and a rather fetching mustard and salmon pink colour scheme. Hmmmmmmmmm. I'm just focussing on the fences round the garden and the nice deck for now!

And oh, possibly the worstest thing of all - NO DISHWASHER!!!!!!!!!! How will i cope??? *sob*

I've had a couple of weekends doing my massage course and i'm really quite enjoying it now, especially since learning all the aromatherapy stuff; it's really interesting and i can't wait to get my table and oils and stuff so i can start practising on people.

The girls are all good, poor Leah just cut her lip open falling over on the way to school; it was very dramatic - blood everywhere, lots of tears, poor thing :( Heidi has taken to waving at everyone from the buggy in a most regal manner, rather reminiscent of HM The Queen - she puts a real snooty face on too - we were in fits watching her this morning. She's into everything now - she really loves the girls' big Fisher Price house, often we can hear them in the morning all playing together, it's very sweet :) She also knows the sound of the front door opening and crawls as fast as she can to try and escape the house; i think she's going to enjoy having a bit of freedom in our new place.

I think we may be moving next weekend, so i'll email you all my new address so you can send letters of adoration and other fanmail to the right place ;) Love to you all xxxx

Hi Jo
It's Emilie, Cathy's daughter from church. Mum has your blog in her favourites and she was showing it to me the other day (I'm currently in France for 2 weeks) and since then I have been hooked!! I love it! I know that our paths never really crossed when we were younger and all living in the same village but I really have enjoyed hearing all about your adventures with your beautiful girls in NZ.
I hope that you are all well and happy and that soon you will find your French Fancies. I am tempted to send you some over with the current issue of HEAT. (I too am obsessed with the mag and TOTALLY feel your pain!)

You really have made me laugh with some of comments and retells of adventures and mishaps. You have also made my mouth water on several occasions with your descriptions of all the delicious baking and cooking you do. (I'm afraid I am like my mother and 'We don't do cakes') We rely on good old M&S for our treats...
Well when I return back to the UK tomorrow I will most certainly look up your blog and save it to my favourites as I have so enjoyed reading it. It has been like reading a book.

Thank you Jo!

Best wishes and love to you all and to your 3 beautiful little girls

Emilie
