Cousin Fun!!

We have had a very busy, but fun week visiting my family in England!!

It is quite amazing how we managed to squeeze so much into each day.  

On our first evening we attended a concert at my nephew's school. B is an amazing musician who plays several instruments and has an great voice too. He was part of the warm up act for the singer Edwina Hayes. I was very proud of him!! Here he is on stage.

Next along was a day out to an amusement park with Tim and his cousin T. We left Tae in the capable hands of Nana and Grandad. The day involved running from one ride to the next and only stopping for food and drink when needed! 

Tig deserves a medal for being the star who went on all the rides with the boys that needed an adult if you were under 140cm. This involved some very scary looking roller coasters. However, I had to step up and do the lying down ride with the boys as we really didnt think Tig would fit into the tiny cages that you lay in!!The worst part was that Id just eaten a yummy chocolate pancake before realising Id have to do this ride:(

Next on the fun days list includied visiting the summer fair at my sisters school. There were lots of fun stalls and activites for the children to do. Tim obviusly loved the football shoot where he won a football and Tae really enjoyed the donkey ride.

Talking about the donkeys. While we were waiting for Tae and cousin H to finish another ride, the donkey man approached cousin C and asked if he could just hold the donkeys for him as he had to do a quick errand.  It was very funny to see C's face as he stood there holding the three donkeys for five minutes. He thought someone was filming him for a laugh!!!

Finally a photo of the lovely H and Tae enjoying the 'very fast and bouncy' ride they went on together. H was very sweet and insisted on holding onto Tae to make sure he was safe the whole way around. It was so 'fast' I could have walked along the side if needed;)
