Christmas 2015

It's been a busy few days, with quite a lot of entertaining. We had Liz's parents with us for a few days over last weekend, and her sister (and nephew) managed to come up for a bit. Some of our other mutual friends called round, and we enjoyed a day with a house-full. On 23rd, we had a day out in York, shopping and then a performance of Peter Pan on ice in the evening, which was good fun. Christmas day we spent at my parents' in Thirsk, which was a lovely relaxing day with lots of food. Today, Cath and her family were with us for the afternoon, with...yes, more food.

Tomorrow, David and Ann arrive: they're staying with us until the new year, and it should be a really relaxing few days.

Birthday

We've had Liz's parents with us for the weekend, and spent a day in Scarborough with grandparents, all to celebrate her birthday. It's been good to see them all, and we went out to the stained glass centre which we all like. Next weekend, we have my parents with us on Saturday, and then we're hosting the neighbours for Christmas drinks and nibbles—so we'll probably spend the whole weekend cooking, eating, and drinking...which I can scarcely complain about.
