    • board games with A & M
    • bolognaise sauce simmering in the slow cooker for later
    •  
  • lots of fun at the Gincase
    • lunch in the barn
    • climbing through the playhouse and sliding down the pole
    • racing around the go-kart track
    • amazing coloured birds
    • Aidan fed them (from his hands!)
    • Megan fed Megan (the Shetland pony)
    • massive Clydesdale horse
    • the clever black pony racing from one end of the field to another in search of food
    • happy as pigs in mud!
    • and all finished off with tea and delicious cakes in the cafe
  • birthday presents
  • pink fizz to celebrate new godparenting
  • knitting and crocheting in the evening, while the men read
    • I've started some fingerless mitts... as a rest from the unending scarf
today:
  • lovely lunch at Merienda's before waving goodbye to our friends
  • relaxing afternoon at home
    • watching sparrows flitting in and out of the branches in the back yard

"Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.  Are you not much more valuable than they?  Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
...But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.  Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow with worry about itself.  Each day has enough trouble of its own"
          Matthew 6:26-27,33-34
