Easter

The Easter Holiday has whizzed by in a flash. Despite snow in Derbyshire delaying Rob and Claire's journey by a day, we were all together for 5 hectic days. (six children and two dogs - not to mention seven adults - are always going to create a bit of mayhem).

While it wasn't as hot and sunny as a couple of weeks ago, it was mainly fine and we could get out in the garden, fields and wood or farther away. In between a few hours off each day, work continued (milking, feeding and mucking out of course, plus the last of the rolling, mole catching and painting the new Toilet Block).


Yesterday we hired a vibrating roller and finished off the new car park (all we need now are the gates).




But there was still time for plenty of fun and games with the East Bunny, who not only organised the Easter Egg Hunt on Sunday (complete with Treasure Map and rhyming clues), but also a quiz at night (though we're still arguing about some of the answers). So Thank You Elliot.

When it was too cold to play outside the boys still got their Football Fix.


And of course much food and drink was enjoyed. Many many thanks to Michelle who created a seemingly endless supply of "puddings"
