A teenager at last

Well Abi became a teenager on saturday


I cant believe that its already been 13 years, it seems like just yesterday.
She had a lovely day excepting the two visits to PC World to return her birthday present, not once but twice. She had a laptop and both had dead pixels on the screen.
The third one seemed okay, wont boot up properley and seems like somebody else had already used it has a password already installed on it. so they can have that one back as well on Tuesday & I will choose a completely different brand.
So she is practicing on the Wii fit
She did have a nice surprise last night to end her birthday a new kitten arrived.

Introducing our newest addition.

Talulah Mae

I have always wanted a grey cat, we already have two cats & a Yorkshire terrier dog, so Talulah Mae is the newest addition to our family.
She arrived last night on Abi's 13th birthday.
Someone we know told as a few weeks ago that her sisters cat had a litter of kittens and some of them were grey. Last night her son knocked and asked if we still wanted a grey kitten, 10 minutes later he was back with this tiny bundle in his arms. We had no kitten food, so paul had to go out & get some.
She has settled well with the dog & my tabby cat Bayleigh Boo, but my black cat Sassy keeps hissing at her.
The only problem is I think she was a bit young to leave home as she has a very runny bottom & is not yet cleaning herself properly, so i have spent the day wiping a runny bum, I thought those days were over!! I have now given her chicken & boiled rice.
She is so cute, I just hope everything settles back down soon.

East Anglian game & Country fair


Bradley in the show ring with the Quack pack, Dogs that herd geese.
The East Anglian game & country fair is a yearly event held at the Norfolk show ground which is about four miles from the house. We all went off Paul & I with Dan & Abi, Tina & Allan, Lynn, Roger & Kirsten, Dean, Gemma, Bradley & Kelsea.
The
weather looked nice, but became deceptively warmer throughout the day. There was plenty to do through the day & masses of food to try & buy.

Bradley all suited up for the wall climb

Bradley all suited up and half way up the wall.

Bradley with the baby chicks, he was so gentle

Alpacas, I never realised that they had such cute faces.


Bradley , Abi & kelsea all on the bumpy slide, poor Abi had to carry Kelsea up each time, look at kelsea's face she loves it.

Bouncy castles are everyones favourite, even Abi's


Bored with all these queues, even though the longest we waited for anything was 10 minutes.


Bradley loved the archery, the instuctor said that he had the power, he just needed to grow taller.
