The first photo was at Hughenden Manor's halloween weekend with Emma Dawson. It's the second year we've been and it's been a great day out both times.

Second photo is at Sarita's house for a halloween party.

As usual we went to the firework display in Twyford that is always on the weekend the clocks change. It did the job of keeping Elizabeth up a bit later, but Jonathan didn't last. At least he didn't cry!

We couldn't find the gold though.

We spent the weekend in Wales and went to Rhys and Alfie's combined party at a really good play barn place in Barry. Unfortunately didn't get very good pictures!

Back to Hughenden manor again, this time for their 1940s weekend with Jon and Amy, and the Dawson family. It was a beautiful day, and the entertainment and activities were great. We especially enjoyed Punch and Judy vs Hitler.

Elizabeth's school had a victorian day, and we foolishly decided to sew an outfit (using our almost victorian sewing machine). Once it was finished we were glad we'd made one rather than buying a cheap outfit of the internet, but it took us quite a while! (with Anne Marie helping too)

The O2O 10k in Reading, the week after the gorilla run. I had a bit of pain in my thigh but finished in a time I was happy with. Elizabeth had great fun giving out medals at the end, and started a small army of child volunteers!
