WELCOME TO MY BLOG

Hi and welcome to my or should I say our blog. I'm not very experienced at this so I may make a few mistakes along the way but hey hopefully I will get there in the end.

I started this blog as a way of keeping in contact with family and friends, especially those who live overseas. I have to especially thank Nikki who had she not sent me details of her wonderful blog you would not be viewing this now. So take a look and see how much my 2 beautiful boys are growing and have a little insight into my world!!

I HAVE BEEN LAZY WITH MY BLOG SO HERES AN UPDATE

Well we are settling into Derbyshire life and I think I can say we are getting there, obviously being away from family and old friends is still hard but it is a part of life that we are now adapting to instead of dwelling on. We have started to visit some of the surrounding area but can't wait for spring to arrive when we can get out and about in the beautiful Peak District. A selection of photos from our new life are shown here...


The boys first day at their new school and Jamies first day at school ever, we didn't have a home only a rental cottage and we had just moved them 130 miles away from everyone and everything they knew, how proud Martin and I were of them and how nervous we were...brings me to tears thinking of it even now.







Our new home in the Xmas Eve snow...



My oh so grown up Taylor



Little Jamie excited about Santas pending visit



Carsington Water - can't believe we went out on a rowing boat....








BAKEWELL - HOME OF THE BAKEWELL PUDDING/TART



Some beautiful old buildings in oh so quaint Bakewell



The original Bakwell Pudding/Tart cafe where we partook in a slice, can taste it now...
