This weekend we went camping at Green Hill Farm in Wiltshire, with our friends Tom and Becca, to celebrate Sam’s birthday weekend (his actual birthday is Monday). The weather wasn’t the greatest – cold, wet, windy – but we still had a great time. In the field next to our site, there were lots of cows and donkeys; the donkeys are really friendly and come right up to the fence to let you pet them!
The showers were a BIG improvement on last year; they’ve been completely re-done so don’t have the resident spiders anymore, and the water temperature is a constant warm instead of alternating between scalding and freezing.
Sam acted as head-chef, cooking breakfast on his new camping stove:

On Saturday we went into Salisbury, which was nearby, and spent the day there. We had a quick visit of Salisbury cathedral, which was really beautiful, and had a coffee in their cafe – it was gorgeous because it had a glass ceiling and you could look up and see a lot of the great architecture of the cathedral.

In other news, Baby has been kicking away! Lara is getting really big and is starting to feel a bit uncomfortable… camping while 6-months pregnant was interesting 
We can’t believe we are only three months away from meeting our daughter!
Lots of people have been buying her some great presents, but recently Amy, Matt and Levi sent over a bunch of great clothes from Old Navy! Here is Lara’s favorite (modeled by Sam’s bear):
the pink tutu
Lara’s mom put her in a blue tutu when she was little, so it’s fun to carry on the tutu tradition!
