... a real friend sticks closer than a brother ...

We have so many good friends, and a great family. (I am close to my brother too....he's the best big brother there is!!!) But this week we have had the privilege to meet up with some very good friends -Beth, T and Hayley. Only Pat was missing to make the perfect reunion of the Parva Party People (from Covenant College 2001/02). Eden got to see our muched loved friends. ANd it's summer time in Brittain, so what is better then to enjoy a meal together outside in the sun!?!




I also thought my family would like to see pictures of Edens first 'boyfriend', Sam Hall.... hehehe.... look at them conversing with the proper distance!!! No close cuddles yet!!!



Lots of love to you all from us here in the Howes-house (also known as Peter and Heidi...)

Eden's Easter adventures in Norway

As you may have read previously, Eden had her 1st international trip this Easter, visiting Grandparents, aunties, uncle, great-grandmother et al.

Here are a few pics - have loads but you're probably at work now and shouldn't be taking the time to look at dozens of really gorgeous photos of our daughter!!

EASTER IN NORWAY

The Howes family are spending Easter in Norway with the Erlandsens and having a great time. Eden, as you might have guessed, is stealing the show and generally being centre of attention. Some great photos of her & Morfar (Silje's dad) to come when we get home and can upload them. Robert & Betty (mormor & morfar), plus aunts Eva & Sunniva & uncle Benny & auntie Anna, and great grandma are all enjoying seeing our gorgeous little lady.

Eden is doing great with the whole travel, new place, new faces experience. What a star. She's even been sleeping till 8am most mornings, so that's good for me & Silje. Also, we've had a few days where we've got up with her, fed her, then handed her over and gone back to bed. Can't be bad!

The rest of the family have all gone out to a meeting tonight and I've stayed in to put Eden to bed. It's me & great grandma (Oldemor) in the house - she doesn't speak any English so we've had good fun communicating. It's great way for me to learn more and put what little I do know into practice.

OK, that's all for now. We are back to home on Monday.
Lots of love to you all,

Nick
