On Saturday we spent the day at Chateau Howard , the home of our dear friends Paul and Ally ...as well as Matthew and Samantha .....oh and not forgetting the four dogs , 2 cats , 1 rabbit , 6 chickens , 2 horses ..tons of trout and one heron who wont leave them alone :-) ...As you can see they have a very big family .
We have known Paul and Al for nearly 18 years and in those years they have definately been our soul mates , we love them dearly and it was nice just to chill out with them for a day at their Derbyshire retreat ....In fact Laura loves them so much she stayed there , hopefully they will return her to us some time this week , after all school starts next week :-(
Yesterday was a good day , I preached at Wem in the morning and it was nice to have all of my family there , mum , dad as well as Gills mum and dad. Jane my sister and her family joined us for lunch ,so we had a full house .
Today ..I'll be spending some time in the study and then we will probably go for a walk ( cheapest option after an expensive holiday !!)
