Jeff and I went to the Enchanted Walk again at Syon Park. Mulled wine, moonlight, lights, woodland and just the 2 of us - pretty damned near perfect :)
Finished the online course on Exploring Play.
Ben had a trial and a showcase couple of games for possible soccer scholarship in USA.
Joe visited for a week.
Been networking - how posh do I sound LOL!
Attended a workshop on the new EHC system which is replacing Statements - sounds good in principle, will delay final opinion once it's up and running.
Joy looked after Ella for the second all day foster care course. Christmas fair, lunch, cuddles and Frozen DVD, she had another lovely day with one of her aunties :)
Had a coffee with Ariane.
Coffee with Jane and Ann.
Pre-Christmas night out with Dawn and Julie - was actually yummy and generous portions. Sometimes when places are busy and they're mass producing the food can be a bit under par - but not in this case :)
Our Ella became a sweet 16 :)
Hi Suzanne .. sounds amazing - lovely walk through a winter wonderland ... Syon House is a place I want to visit sometime. The pub looks good and a fun evening out .. and am so pleased relatives and friends helped with Ella - she looks lovely ...
ReplyDeleteHave a very happy year end ... and good luck with the course ... cheers Hilary
Hi Hilary - happy new year to you too :) xx
DeleteHappy birthday to Ella!!! Those lights looked gorgeous. I wish I'd had a chance to see more lights but the season flew by and now we're both sick. I just want my decorations down and house back to normal.
ReplyDeleteYep, we've had sickness in our house too. Spent a week looking after everyone else, so of course now I've got it - always illnesses at Christmas! x
DeleteHappy birthday, Ella.
ReplyDeleteThat Enchanted walk looks amazing! Wish they had something like it here.
Thanks Alex, can't believe she's 16! The walk is lovely, found it mentioned in a magazine last year, and so pleased we gave it a try :) x
DeleteHappy Sweet Sixteen, Ella! The Enchanted Walk looks like it's right out of a fairytale! What a perfect place to spend a romantic evening! Wishing you and your family a very happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteJulie
It really is a beautiful place Julie :) What with the kids and Jeff working shifts we don't get many chances to have a romantic evening! Happy new year to you too :) xx
