Kirsty's Graduation!

My beautiful, clever daughter Kirsty who graduated from Manchester Metropolitan University on Wednesday. She is know a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology! We are so proud of her and are excited for what the future will hold for Kirsty on her new journey. Well done, we love you lots x

Bit of a waffle.

I supose I felt I should kind of explain a little of the reasons why this blog is called 'charlie and us' even though I have 5 wonderful children. It's because my older children are mostly adults and Lucy who is 16 going on 21 lol certainly would be mortified if I went rambling on about her life on here. Like any family (and step family) we go through our ups and downs but on the whole life is quite grand :)
I'm so very proud of all my babies, big and small and only wish I had a blog/keepsake for all of them but as our everyday life and routines seem to evolve round Charlie and every now and then I catch a quick glimpse, give a lift, hand out money, etc to my older offspring, then I'l continue to share our life as it is.
Oh and just wanted to say, thank you so very much for reading our humble blog enties, it's so nice to share with other like minded folk.

Camping is fun.

Ok, this photo makes my heart skip a beat!!

Charlies first ever pony ride, he was so brave and went for a little walk around the paddock without me or daddy but you can see he was a little nervous.

Me and my boy.

My beautiful smiley adventure boys.

Lots of room for our camping party of 3. For some strange reason the older children gladly stay at home and wave us off.....wonder why lol.

Our tent in all its lovely glory.

Very happy campers.
