World Cup Friendlies

Mum, Dad and The Boy stayed in for most of the day due to thunderstorms and heavy showers.  After a lovely dinner which involved some very tasty prawns in a garlic sauce, the sun came out and everyone thought it was worth venturing out for a bit of fresh air.  They decided to go for a walk along the river at St Asaph, since it's not too far from home and quick enough to get back if the weather took a turn for the worse.


The river was high and the current fast in places.  There were lots of 'fairies' floating in the air which made it all very pretty indeed.


So this is where all of the greenfly live!  When The Boy got too close to a tree, they all dropped down.  Freaky!


There is no Boy and River without Stick.


Mum, Dad and The Boy got caught in a light, refreshing shower which didn't last long at all.  It was nice to see the raindrops in the sunshine.


The Boy was walking and suddenly his shoe fell in the river.  At least that's the story Mum and Dad were told.  Mum went and rescued it before it got swept away.


Dad found an Iron Age pencil.


Bless my barnacles, Mum found this fossil!


N'awwww.


After walking alongside the river and playing on the pebbled beach, Mum, Dad and The Boy had a kick around on the field with their new Brazil football.


Mum takes a shot.  She wasn't very good.


Dad and The Boy.  Hmm, isn't The Boy growing tall!

The Boy and his adorable cheeky face.

Once they got home, Double Deckers were greedily scoffed and the family settled down to watch the last England friendly before the World Cup starts next week.  The match was stopped and delayed for forty minutes due to a severe thunderstorm but Mum and Dad let The Boy stay up late until the game finished.


Glued.
