30th November

It was the church fair today. Oliver needed some space from all of the crowds so we went into church and he helped set the candles up!



29th November

Oliver still loves the bath so it’s an easy answer when he feels he’s missing out on Rainbows and Brownies on a Friday evening!

2nd November

A day out to Lightwater Valley with Jessica and the Brownies! It was very damp and cold. Jessica was very disappointed that she wasn’t tall enough for the Ultimate and for the big swings! Ended with an amazing firework display.
