OMG Disneyland Paris

Firstly we went to Disneyland Paris and had a fab time shattering but fab we were on the parks for the best part of 12 / 13 hours a day and it was just brilliant. The look on Rebekah's face as she saw the Disney castle and then all the characters in the parades it was just fantastic. After Disney we came home for 2 days and then went off to Scotland for 10 days camping. We went to Lauder near Edinburgh for 3 nights and it was beautiful and we went all over Edinburgh we even took part in the sunrise ceremony for the scouting centenary celebrations and then we went to Oban for 5 nights, unfortunately although we had a brill time visiting oban , loch ness , fort william etc when we got back to the site there appeared to be a permanent black rain cloud and the site was very wet. We left Oban one day early and went to Haltwistle in Northumberland where the sun shone and we had a lovely time again visiting Hadrian's wall and even had a visit into Newcastle. Came home and think I need a holiday to recover lol

Will add some photographs later

Birthday Weekend and loads of surprises

Hi what a weekend we have had firstly on Saturday we went to the trafford centre with Rebekah and her friend Molly as part of her Birthday surprise and she went to the build a bear factory http://www.buildabear.co.uk/. It was a really good day and we had loads of fun.




On Sunday it was Rebekah's party and we went to http://www.chiquito.co.uk/ and had a pinata party everyone loved it all 16 of the children lol.




Today Monday 2nd July Rebekah's actual birthday and we let her into a surprise As part of her Birthday surprise we are off to Disney Land Paris for a 4 day break. My step children who live with us ( Long story ) are off with their mum this next week for 3 weeks to USA and we dedcided that it would be nice for us to do something special for her ( its been quite a year in all for her) To say she was pleased was an understatement. This morning she opened her presents and then I gave her a box with two tumbler glasses in with mickey and minnie mouse on them and there was also a letter inside explaining what we were doing. She read it out loud and when she read the bit that said we were going she shrieked and ran to hug me ( and yes i was crying ) So all in all a lovely day and now I can get excited cos I can actually talk about it now

takes me back
