Well here we are at the start of 2012, lots of exciting things to look forward too…Omar, Hannah, Adam, Robby and Kemela are due to arrive on 1st April, please don’t let it be an April fool! Ha! To say I am excited is an understatement, when we started planning our new home we knew it would have to have 4 bedrooms so that one day…. all our youngsters could visit us together! We have lots to celebrate; Hannah and Robby’s marriage with the family, Adam and Kemela’s recent engagement, Omar’s 30th, KC’s 60th, Hannah will celebrate her birthday en route most of it at Heathrow airport, Adam flies home 3 days before his ….so it will most definitely be PARTY TIME!
We have house exchange plans for Cheltenham in the summer and London for Christmas…so watch this space!
2011 was good to us, we had a lovely 3 months at home, Glos. will always be home. Thank you to Paul for his great hospitality. It is always good to spend quality time with family and friends… Hannah and Robby came over from California and we had two wonderful weeks out there with them. We enjoyed a trip up to Manchester to visit Omar, helped Adam and Kemela move into their new home and a house exchange in Nailsworth, where I grew up, lots of walking and catching up with friends. In August I spent a few weeks at home, Omar and I flew out to Poland for Joseph and Kasia’s wedding and a family celebration in Wales. Adam and Kemela let me have their home for two weeks, which was lovely for entertaining friends and family in Cheltenham.
We had four lots of exchangers out here during 2011 and all enjoyed their visits and we got to spend some time with them all. And last but definitely not least we had a lovely visit with Christine and Robyn.
Happy New Year Everybody!!
