Happy New Year
Well...ok, so I'm a bit late at wishing a happy new year... We have been keeping fairly busy over the last month or so. We had a nice Christmas; Martin's cousin Jörn and his girlfriend Karin stayed with us over the holidays. Whad a nice visit and tried to do a bit of sightseeing with them, but both Jörn and Karin were quite sick with a bad cough & cold plus the weather here was appalling. Ok, so Wales in Winter isn't exactly known for being particularly sunny - but it's been worse than usual this year and I am downright sick of all this rain!
It's been about 3 months since Martin had his cycling accident and he is finally going in for keyhole surgery on his knee this Thursday - fingers crossed everything goes well and that he'll soon be on the mend!
Last weekend was quite an exciting one for Katia - last spring she started going to a children's drama club and last weekend was her first show with them. It was a Pantomine of Rapunzel. She had a non-speaking part (a bunny) - but was also in the chorus and had FOUR costume changes! She absolutely loved every minute of it and was a bit sad by the end of the last performance - though no doubt that will soon be replaced by excitement for the next!
We are all seriously looking forward to our trip to Canada and I can't believe I am saying it but I am almost looking forward to -20°C weather - for at least I might catch glimpse of the sun which is more than I can say for the weather around here lately!
I will post some photos later....
