Winter Solstice By The Sea

Image
Today we celebrated the winter solstice by spending some time on the beach, whilst visiting family in Northumberland.  It was freezing cold, but that didn't seem to matter as the boys ran around, climbed on the rocks and searched for interesting things on the sand that the tide had left behind.  I also managed to forget about the cold whilst taking photos of them and the beautiful surroundings. Watching the waves crashing together, the seagulls flying overhead and seeing the boys so happy made this special day even more special.

Christmas Preparations

Image
We've had a very busy, but lovely, week making preparations for Christmas.  On 1st December, we always put up the decorations.  This has been our family tradition since the boys were very small.  So we put on our favourite Christmas songs and had a lovely time making the house look magical. The result - two very happy boys!
