Story time in the 'quiet room'
Scarborough beach rockpool finds
Emily was action girl; finding crabs, eels and fish.
Ben wasn't too sure about getting too close! Joseph neither!
Nathan had to retrieve an escapee crab from amongst the bags!
When asked what his favourite part of the day had been, Ben replied ' playing in the dirty sea' aka the puddle around the bottom of the steps!! Joseph invented the game, throw the bouncy ball up the steps and then try and catch it. The four of them loved it. I tried not to think about the grossness of the water!
Sarah had a nap under the parachute
Joseph played boules with Grandad and Uncle Dave - guess who threw the 'jack' in this picture!
Ben and Jack played catch or place the ball onto each others scratch pad!
Seth loves the ball on his pram toy
They sure love to run!
Recreating beach poses
..and then there were three bottoms!

Time for 'vendgers' aka adventures.
Joseph, are you coming on an adventure??
Thier adventure of choise was to go up a staircase at one side of the house, through the boys room which led to the unused bedroom at the top of the house and then down the staircase at the other side of the house and back round.
Talk about double trouble!
Dalby Forest -truly 'The Great Yorkshire Forest'

Amazing park, stunning scenery.

So handsome
Quite like the flat cap look!

A holiday highlight - hot tub time, indoors or out, take your pick!
Kids in bed and the adults relaxed even more if it involved an ice cream as well! Aunty Gemma was hot tub Queen - in every night!
Pile on Uncle Stuart time!
