Eggtastic Chatsworth

We headed off for another Chatsworth hit last week.  Everyone else was busy, so just me and the kids this time.  It is wonderful to share this pleasure, but the kids sometimes like to make all the choices, and that is what they get to do when it's just us.  There was an Easter trail in the gardens and house.  The playground and farm were super busy as some schools had already broken up for the holidays.  we had a short stay in the playground at the beginning of the day, thought we would have a quick Guinea cuddle and then head to the gardens, but after seeing the 50 people waiting to cuddle the little piggies we quickly decided that cuddling our own would have to do for today!!

Brodsworth gardens

We decided to go on a number of the home ed trips organised on SHYEC this year, to some really lovely places.  Our fabulous friends Becky, Oscar and Safia were there too, and we had a great time.  I love this first picture and this was a really memorable moment under the tree canopy. We ended up not getting into the hall as we spent so much time round the gardens and then a good while in the brilliant playground.
