New Year, New Adventures, Renewed Hope

Happy New Year my dear sweet Ariya Starr.

I thought it would be nice to start the new year by showing you what we all got up to over the festive period, We all dressed up as Christmas elves and your Nana and Grandad were Mr & Mrs Clause! even your Great Grandad and Nana got in on the act. we played lots of games and ate lots of food it was a really nice Christmas and everyone had a merry time as you can see below.

(Clockwise from top left) Great Grandad Elf, Great Nana Elf & Roxy Doggy, Grandad Clause & your Cousins Baby Noah & Leo the Elf, Nana Clause enjoying a well deserved cocktail, Daddy, Grandad, Great Grandad & Uncle Nath playing a game.

Also, I and your Grandad Paul debuted are Christmas Surprise, we have been busy working away on it in the weeks to Christmas and it was finally ready to take on its first passengers.

We are really happy with how it turned out and I think everyone was super impressed with the what we had created. It put smiles on faces so it did its job wonderfully, I hope you like it little one. Right, its a new year so its onwards and upwards, it's going to be a great year I'm super excited about what the future holds. Our whole family sends its love to you and mummy, take care and ill have more for you soon I promise.

Family Matters - Nana, Grandad & Roxy Dog

Hello, again dear little one.

Daddy is back from his adventures and as promised has taken lots of nice pictures for you, I'm going to collect them into a short story for you and then I hope mummy will be able to read it to you at bedtimes to help you get to sleep, it will take me a little more time to get that already for you so, for now, I'm going to introduce your family to you, starting with your Nana, Grandad and there naughty little doggy who is called Roxy.

Nana Julie, Grandad Paul, & Roxy Dog.

So this is my Mummy & Daddy, they are your Nana & Grandad and this is their caravan by the sea. Nana Julie is super strong, hardworking and kind, she is the best footballer and loves growing things in her garden or greenhouse. She is a nurse and works at the hospital looking after people, Grandad Paul is very wise, gives big cuddles and loves playing and being silly with his grandchildren, he's a big soft teddy bear. They are the best grandparents and I am so very lucky to have them as my mum and dad, they are the best people I have ever known, I'm so proud to call them mum and dad, And then we get to Roxy Dog, a cheeky little doggy who loves belly rubs, running on the beach and swimming!

Nana & Grandad love it at the caravan its such a beautiful place and we go on lots of walks and adventures together, through windswept sand dunes, rolling waves and lush forests full of beauty and life.

Adventures in the Wild.

Its a dogs life at the caravan and at the end of the day it seems all the excitement is a little too much for someone.....
