On Boxing Day

Hello Folks! I hope you all had super duper Christmases! I must say, that ours was one of the nicest yet; very relaxed, just as it should be :) On Boxing Day, we made some Christmas leftovers sandwiches and took them onto the Heath to eat. It was so nice to be out in the crisp air, strolling under dark, moody skies - just what we needed. Bertie tried out his new tricycle (which as you can see, he takes very seriously - that’s our Bertie!). In fact, he is almost nodding off to sleep in this picture!

I think we’re going to make this our new Boxing Day tradition (along with 500000000 other Londoners!).

I hope you enjoyed yours.

(Info in case you’re interested, some people are - Maisie’s star top and knitted leggings are from Monki, and Bertie is wearing a wonderfully soft, striped Ada Ada scarf, a gift from Miriam. Thanks Miriam!)

  6. You learn something every day ... I did not know this term boxing day ... now it's done
    We do not have that tradition in Belgium. But it was Saint Nicolas :-)
    This must be a very foolish to enjoy the landscape ... I envy you!
    Happy holidays and good fresh air!

  9. Trikes, bikes, scooters... why do they always end up being carried at some point? Lovely photos, and a belated Happy Xmas!

  10. Lovely shots! Strangely enough, our Christmas looks pretty much the same with green grass. No snow yet.
    Kind regards,

  15. May I be so bold as to ask where you got the trike, or the brand? I'm struggling with the numerous nasty plastic options & Bertie's is just lovely...

  17. Looks like a wonderful outdoors day! Everything you eat out in nature tastes so much better I think.

    Happy New Year!

  18. Jade, I am so sorry for taking so long to respond. How rubbish of me - Bertie’s scooter was a second hand Ebay find, it’s a Zooky Classique, but I think you can still buy them. Notice they’re out of stock on Amazon, but I found on (in pink) here

    There is a picture of a red on too, so they may have it :) Hope you find something x

  19. Oooh, You're a marvel, thank you! And I'm in highbury with a 17 month old trike obsessive called Esme, so if you are ever passing through the fields & fancy a date at the swings we'd be happy to oblige...
