So, What has been happening?

So people are starting to say – their website is out of date, they do not update is any more, they don’t care ……. NO, NO, NO – not true, life has just been absolutely manic and loads has been going on. So let us start by apologising to everybody that has dropped by to find no change.

From going to watch South Africa play England in a polo test match, to Sarah’s weekly extramural activity regime that would make any timetable scheduler be proud – everybody has just been really busy.  So right now the task at hand is to start catching up on what has been happening – and this is the first update – check back over the weekend for some more.

Isabella has started school

Well – it is one of those milestones that everybody reaches and Isabella has crossed the threshold! She is over the moon and is already settled in and really looks forward to going in each day.

Strangely enough, it seemed to us that she was more excited to go to school, than she was for Christmas. It seems that she is a natural and loves the challenges. What has taken me a little by surprise is that at her age – homework has already kicked in! But she thinks that it is a best thing since sliced bread! She said that the best part of the week was “doing sport”.

Ruby is really proud of her big sister as well.

Well done Nix!
