New Home, old and new friends

We spent some of the half term down at the new house. We were meant to be camping but decided better of it, having checked the weather report. The motto for the week was 'Glad we're not camping!'
The friends came to us instead and did an amazing job helping to clear some serious weeds and prep the rooms for painting.
The iris are from the garden we brought home to enjoy, rather that go back next week and find them all dead.

 
We also got to make new friends next door. They have 2 children, daughter aged 8, in the same year as Charlotte and a son aged 6 in the same year as Daniel. God is good. All I wanted for the kids was to have friends nearby that went to the same school.
They are now very excited to get to know them more and hopefully look forward to starting their new school.
