A Bit of a Sad Day

Well Alfie's Aunt Danielle and Uncle Brattan left Bristol today for London and then on back to Asheville. He enjoyed their visit, especially their impressive rattle abilities. His Mom and Dad loved having them here, as well. The house seems a bit empty now that they are gone.
Whilst they were here, Alfie went with his aunt and uncle to Bath, a day which featured a trip to his Aunt's favourite fish and chip restaurant. He also took them to Oxford and into Bristol to sightsee and for a burger.
Danielle celebrated her 32nd birthday with us and so we all went bowling and to lunch. Alfie didn't particularly care for the noise of the bowling alley and the adults weren't too keen on the service during their lunch but on the whole it was a bang up day. Alfie cried most of the way to the train station to drop them off this morning. He obviously wanted a longer visit! Luckily, he doesn't have too long to wait as he flies out with his parents to stay with his aunt and uncle in Asheville this April. We appreciate that Danielle and Brattan made the effort to come and stay with us and can't wait to see them again.
