Three cows and a teeny tiny baby cow have appeared in the field at the end of our road so we went to have a little look . We had only taken a couple of steps into the field when 2 of the cows started trotting towards us with a menacing look on their faces ! my fear of cows kicked in ( was chased by a heard of cows in this exact same field when i was little ) so i told Ben and Daisy to go to the gate in a trying not to panic type voice, Ben went quickly but Daisy who is exploring all meanings of the word 'stubborn' wouldn't budge so i ran with her under my arm like a rugby ball just as the scary cows broke into a full on run ! eeeeek . took the above photo from the safety of the road . Don't think I'll be venturing anywhere near those cows again .
we found some more fields to explore instead.
feeling a bit naked without Molly on my front, after a wakeful night she fell asleep on the bed so i left her with my mum, so she missed out on the scary cows thankfully .
why open a gate when you can go under it !
Ben took this photo of me and Daisy.
sliding down hills
this is Hedgy the Hedgehog she belonged to me when i was little ,Ben loves her and has taken her everywhere since we found her in grandmas loft. she's eating a piece of dried sheep poo in this picture :) mmmmmmmmmm
In the afternoon grandma took us to Townley hall we first went to the playground which was packed with children and soon Daisy had disappeared in the crowds of children i spotted her being carried away from the playground in a Lady's arms so i ran faster than Ive ran in a long while and caught them up, the well meaning but annoyingly silly lady thought she was lost and was asking random people if Daisy was theirs ! anyone could of said 'yes she was their daughter' and taken her ! i was so shocked at her stupidity i just scooped Daisy up and we left the playground quickly ! don't you just hate the way places become stupidly busy in school holidays ugh!
This beautiful permaculture site was lovely and peaceful a little oasis among the craziness of the park.
exploring the Cob house .
the site runs free courses on growing veg which I'm defiantly going to sign up for when Molly is older .
That permaculture place looks amazing! have you seen 'Permaculture' magazine? It's always so inspiring, I could post you a back issue if you'd like to see it :)
ReplyDeleteYikes, to the scaey incident with Daisy, what a daft thing for somebody to do...
I love your family photos, they are always so joyful and your children are always doing the same things that mine do!!
Love Gina xx
Oh my, I love Townley, we used to go there so much when my older ones were little, I really must go back. I agree with Gina, your family photo's are so lovely.
ReplyDeleteOh and what a very silly person to do that with Daisy!!!
