Autumn Holidays

We had a very quiet family focused break from school and work - with a lot of time to grieve and also rest as we all managed to get quite ill.  The highlight for me was a trip for a night to the Pyrenees Mountains.

 

 This is the release of doves on the day we celebrated our special Granny's life.  We are thankful for the peace and joy she gave us all.  We miss her so much everyday.

In contrast to this is my children at the Shadbolts, when we took a couple hours out to be in the bush.  For me I need nature around me to get deep inside.  But my children took the opportunity to turn into bike bandits.

Grandma and Q - love his choice of cutlery!  Perfect for not eating too much Easter lunch to make sure there is plenty of room for the afternoon Easter egg hunt.





The moment before the hunt...



The girls with Easter clips I made - they were so good to wear them on the day - my heart was singing!  Below you will find more singing with some special friends who came to visit us on Easter Monday. Go Boys!




Good Friday evening was very chilly and we had a very relaxing time as a family in the Pyrenees - a time to reflect and rest.  This simply has been an exhausting and sad time in our family.  But perhaps this picture might just show you just how relaxing this time was!
