Dog walking and model village

We popped over to mum's yesterday.  She's going away and needed to show me how her door works as I'll be dog sitting for a weekend.

It was a gorgeous morning so we took her dog Freda for a walk.  Mum lives in quite rural area, within 3 or 4 minutes of leaving the house we were walking through a meadow.



Fred loves walking Freda.  He would make a great dog owner.

We walked past a beautiful farmhouse.  It has a wooden horse sculpture in the garden.


Meg got tired - I'd anticipated this and brought the wrap, and she was happy to be carried (yay!).


Betsy picked wildflowers along the way, and had a turn with Freda.


Then the kids had a quick stop at the playground, and Meg walked the dog back to mum's.







Today we had a visit to Bekonscot model village.  Fred has loved this place over the years, but now I think it's lost it's charm.  I'm not surprised, and a tiny bit sad for the end of an era.





Betsy did this cool chalk picture when we got home.
