Happy New Year

To all the wonderful people who stop by Shells & Beans - I would lilke to wish you all a wonderful and healthy 2009.

We had a lovely Christmas, a very Merry New Years Eve and then a few days camping at the beach which was wonderful.
After two weeks and one day of the other two children not being infected/infested with the chicken pox - they arrived. Within an hour the two kids had spots popping up in all manner of places. Zoe being older was pretty flat for a whole day and had about a million more spots. However sea water and a hot tent seemed to send the spots crusting up after only a couple of days. We are off camping again in a couple of days so the car is still half packed and a few boxes are lying around my kitchen that i am not going to pack away and then repack.




Some more shots of my beach loving children - for the grandparents overseas!

Ah, fun times at the beach - that's life!
Sorry to hear about the poxy chickens ... we had them visit us last year and it's an awful time of smelly creams and whingey kids.
Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Shells and family. Your poor little poxy chickens, as Surfing Free says. Hope you are all better and having a fabulous holiday.
