We're back from our first ever family camping trip and I'm pleased to report that not only did we survive, we actually had a really, really good time and might even do it again sometime....We had a great time and I'm really sad that I can't share most of the pictures with you (we went with two other couples and four other kids and I don't like using pictures with other children in for obvious reasons) but if I could show you some of the 600+ pictures we took between us, you'd see rock climbing, dancing, laughing, singing, playing, water fights, picnics - basically good old fashioned family … [Read more...]

The Ginger Incident….
You might remember that a few weeks ago we had our first broken heart when Master Frugal was dumped by his girlfriend in favour of someone who's apparently cuter than him! He was most concerned that he was going to be single forever and had a whole day of being miserable before finding himself another girlfriend - as you do when you're seven.They had a lovely week or so together until yesterday, when his new girlfriend told him that she didn't want a boyfriend any more.
