YOUR FIRST WEDDING

Today the three of you got to attend your very first wedding and what a wedding it was.  We were so privileged and honoured to be part of what was such a beautiful and touching occasion and I am so grateful to Alex and Claire for allowing us to share their day with them.

*Argh!! I don't understand why my black and white photos have recently started to look sepia on Blogger.

STICK INSECT

D - 365

You are usually a little more reluctant that your sister to hold the animals, but not today.  Today you could not wait to hold them and were maybe a little too eager at times.  Bless you my sweet boy.

A TREASURE TROVE

A - 365

Here you with your brother next to a gorgeous old vehicle stored at Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery's Collection Centre.  I had never really thought about what museums do with all of the things that they own that is not on display, but today we found out.  Daddy and I took you and your brothers to a (free) open day at the Collections Centre and I can only describe it as a treasure trove.  As well as all of  the amazing collections which are stored there they also had a falconry display and animals from Animalmania and the Minibeast Roadshow as well as a visit from the Lord Mayor. 

We all had a really lovely afternoon, but your particular favourites were the animals and the collections comprising of pretty things and of toys like these ones.

SNAKE CHARMER

Last time we went to the museum to see the Minibeast Roadshow you were very wary of the snakes, but not today; today you were the snake charmer!
