Michael's Birthday

We were set to meet up with Jenny & Ed Bardsley tonight in Walmley but Jenny's dad Tom seemed to be close to dying and  then....rallied so we had a call saying could we meet at TGI Fridays in Binley Coventry. This was just around the corner from where I worked at Orbit. We headed to Coventry and made good time.
We had a lovely evening and a great meal. So lovely to spend time together. Michael got a bag of chocolates from Jenny and she gave us a lovely plaque which I intend to place in our bedroom.
The children all got gifts to their dad as well he had quite a booty

GOODIES FOR THE BIRTHDAY BOY AND CAKE!

I LOVE THIS

Black Country Museum

So after somewhat disturbed night because Ruby got up we all survived. Daniel had a great sleep and really liked the quilt and the big blow up bed! Even suggested he could take the quilt home as he liked the quilt cover as well....
After breakfast we all met up and headed off to the Black Country Museum, and after a bit of a detour as Spaghetti Junction was closed we made it to the park. The weather was good but there was a bit of a que.
We had a really good day and the children really enjoyed it especially seeing the small houses where people lived.

It got a bit hot and I was glad of a seat!

Waiting for lunch

Waiting for lunch, it had become too much for Daniel

Not sure who was taking who for a walk!

Family Visitors- Malachowski's

So Emma & Richard brought the children to stay! during half term. They came to the office to check out where we worked and then we headed to the flat. They loved running around checking out the flat.
When they arrived Michael was still out with the AP's and Genevieve was running around asking where her granddad was and as soon as she and Bethany saw him they ran at him!
Tonight Daniel & Ruby are staying with us and the rest are in the Premier Inn at Whitehouse Common.
Tomorrow we are going to the Black Country Museum.
