TT 2011

Mr & Mrs H and little Z went to watch some of the bike practise races on Weds night (which we haven't done for many years). The sidecars were our favourites.

























Bank Holiday Monday fun - May 2011

As the weather was so gorgeous over here on Bank Holiday Monday, we decided to make the most of it and spend the day in the garden. We got out the new hula hoop and AJ and little Z both managed really good hulas!!






Badminton tournament no 2 - May 2011

AJ took part in another tournament against Lothian and Yorkshire - this time in the Isle of Man. The age group was higher and it proved a really tough competition. At one point AJ was playing the u13 Scottish no 1 player but he managed to get a good number of points off him. The Isle of Man team played their hardest but the visitors were much stronger and won the tournament. Well done AJ.

Jersey holiday




After Mrs H returned from Gibraltar, it was straight to Jersey to visit Granny for a holiday. We had a lovely time and the weather was gorgeous.














Working in Gibraltar - Apr 2011



Mrs H spent most of the last week in April working in the Gibraltar office which was great. She also spent the weekend in Malaga with her friend S who was running a half marathon. She finished it faster than the previous year in sweltering conditions - at one point in the afternoon the temperature topped 32c. Mrs H came back with red bits!!!!!






Royal Wedding fever - Apr 2011

Little Z and Mummy joined in with the street party held at school the day before the Royal Wedding. The Reception and Year 1 children had made such a fab effort with all the bunting and decorations and the mummys all came dressed in their best dresses and hats (including Mrs H). A great time was had by all. Little Z particularly enjoyed the tiara decorating activity.









Badminton tournament - Apr 2011

AJ had a good time at the tournament in Yorkshire although it was tough competition. He did win some of his doubles matches and Grandma and Grandpa had even driven up to support him and the team which was really great of them.

Superheroes are us - April 2011

It was super hero day in school and AJ and little Z made use of various items in the house to go to school as Superboy and Supergirl (how handy was that??"!!!!!). Actually they look really good.














Back blogging again

I know it has been months since I last posted any updates on the blog but I am about to make up for it now!

Look out Yorkshire!

Mr & Mrs H are so proud. AJ has been picked to represent the Isle of Man at an under-12's badminton tournament in Yorkshire at the end of April.
