Project 52 - 34/52


Slightly unconventional again this week. 

I wanted to post some pictures with some of my favourite people in the world. We were very lucky to spend some time with them at the weekend and show off the boys.

Robert and Marion were the founders of the church I grew up in, the church my parents still go to. Even though we have moved and go to a new church which has a great family, even though the building the used to use has been demolished and a new building in it's place, even though there is a new pastor, the Staplehurst Free Church will always feel like my home. Robert and Marion moved away a long long time ago now, we don't get to see them nearly enough, they are such special people and I miss them dearly.


Debs is Robert and Marion's daughter. I was a teeny tiny bridesmaid when her and Pete got married.Pete works at the oh so fancy Stowe school and we were very privileged to get to stay over night in the dorms so we could spend more time with them. Debs and Pete have 3 beautiful and talented and all grown up children. I still picture them as little kids which shows just how little we see them these days. 


Thank you so much for having us to stay and for being the most amazing family.

Project 52 - 20/52


Let me just begin with; HOW ARE WE 20 WEEKS INTO THIS YEAR ALREADY! Now I've got that out the way...... I've gone to go slightly off topic for this week's photo. My children are in it (just), but it actually shows my whole family. We went to Kew Gardens at the weekend to celebrate a few birthdays. I love this picture because it's exciting. Our family is rapidly growing, this picture shows how we have gone from a family of 5 to a family of 10! I have added Thomas, Noah and Judah, my sister Jessica is getting married in July to Ben and my other sister Joelle brought her boyfriend Aurelien. It's so much fun getting to know these new people and spend time all together. 



In december Joelle put this as her Facebook status:
" I got to spend a lovely day with my two amazing big sisters, Rebecca Green and Jess Laming! One pregnant and the other engaged, its all so exciting and I am looking forward to seeing where we will be next time we go in 2015!"

My mum responded:
"One pregnant, one engaged ...... and one too busy looking after 2 small children?"

I'm excited to see if her predictions are right!
