Final days in Herefordshire and home

Two weeks went by so quickly. The last few days went by at a slower pace, reading and pottering. We went back to The Cider Barn for a lovely evening meal and a rather nice cocktail.

We also went back to Croft Castle, which had a very different vibe than turning up in a heat wave the week before.

We also on our last full day found the village I want to live in, as well as the house within that village. We had a second viewing of the property the day we travelled home and I am hoping that my dreams of living on the country can finally come to fruition. 

Once home I was off again for two nights babysitting my sons new Red Fox Lab puppy. It's amazing how exhausting it is having a puppy again and how quickly you forget. She may look like butter wouldn't melt, but looks can be deceiving. she is very sweet though.

A new baby

When Bertie left us she left a huge hole in our hearts and in our lives. We picked up a new baby at the weekend to try and fill some of the gap left at Berties loss. 

Introducing Tuplip Tallulah, our 12 week old, black Miniature Schnauzer puppy. She's named Tulip for me and Tallulah for my husband, but she'll just be called Tulip in general day to day life.

We first met Tulip when she was 6 weeks old..

And then again at 9 weeks..

On pick up day she weighed a hefty 4.4 kilos and was the biggest puppy of the litter.

She's gorgeous but oh boy have I forgotten just how much hard work having a puppy is!
