This is Lucy my youngest grandchild, she's just 3 years old and is over from South Africa with her sister and Mum and Dad for a short visit to attend a conference. Yesterday afternoon Steve brought the girls over and we went to Longshaw to enjoy the sunshine. Sadly Hannah wasn't feeling well so she stayed at her Mum's while we were gallivanting.
The visit was arranged at fairly short notice so Grandad missed the first week as he is still in the West Indies and I shall miss the second week as I'm off to Ireland on Saturday morning to meet up with my American friend and her family! I shall be back just in time to say 'Goodbye' to them but they'll be here again in July so not long to wait. This will probably be my last post until I get back from Ireland as Steve & Co will be over twice more this week and I have to somehow get all DH's washing and ironing done when he gets back on Wednesday before packing my own case. I'm just hoping this weather will last through next week!

A busy time for you! I am glad you got the chance for this rather impromptu meeting, though. The photos look like the stuff happy memories are made of!
How wonderful to have a surprise visit from the grandchildren! My youngest goes to South Africa in May for three weeks -- he's beyond excited. I hope you have a great time in Ireland!
Isn't it lovely when grandchildren come to visit, but even more so when they come all that way. Enjoy your time with your family and have a great time in Ireland.

Even a quick surprise visit beats no visit at all--what a treat for all of you! Have fun in Ireland :)
How wonderful for you, kids visiting, then you off to Ireland! I envy you your grandchildren!
What a wonderful treat for you to see them when they live so far away. Every moment is special whent there is a great distance between family.

Neat logs and grandchildren go together. We've had a few fallen trees here over the years that have provided enjoyment for the little ones and like there...grownups too!
