Weekly round-up

A quiet week...

Our one special outing this week... since we've been listening to music by Elgar this term, and he was born not far from us... we went to visit the Elgar Birthplace Museum...



The trees laden with lovely apples.

Ah... yes, there he is! He's not looking at us though... he's gazing out at the Malverns... definitely a wonderful view from the cottage.


(The Malvern Hills)

The Cottage

We used the 'Audio Tour'... was a good way of finding out about the place, and listening to some music too.


Other random things from the week:

New calendar

Fun after shopping for wrapping paper

New display area for drawings.


Bubs' latest handicraft effort, and her most favoured to date - counted cross stitch.

Spike and his obsession with all things chocolate... chose to spend his 'stay up' night making a chocolate cake!

A visit to 'Our' newly re-vamped McDonalds... looks much nicer inside now.

Bubs' mini Advent Calendar creations!

'Team Building' exercise... we spent a bit of time playing this game on the Wii, and learning how to work together as a team... it was interesting to see the kids learning to work together. (a hugely frustrating game though... drove ME up the wall!!!)
