Mom and Dick came over for a visit and to sight see so we went to many different places. Some places I took them too we have been and have blogged for example Knaresborough, some places in York, etc.
Here is a slide show of some places that we took them too.
Clifford's Tower-York
York Museum-York
Papa helping Liam walk through an old church that is now an art gallery.
York Minister-York Which is so huge that pictures can't even describe how big it is! It was so pretty and ornate it was unreal...
The landscape is near Darley Mill (which I took them to the old Mill and we looked around, it's not a shop and they serve tea there as well)
The kids are at The World of James Herriot author of All Things Great and Small. We toured his house, barn, clinic (he was a vet) and TV studio were they filmed the shows based on his books. It was a really great stops for the entire family.
St. Mary's Church where James Herriot was married.
Newby Hall and Gardens.
Liam being silly
Then we had lunch here at our house with Diana & Malcolm Parsons. Diana and my late Aunt Marcy were pen pals for over 40 years. They never met the entire time they wrote letters, so it was a real treat to meet her.
Then we went to Bolton Abbey. It was beautiful day and people were everywhere, in the grass, the river, all over.

Shelby, Great pictures - the kids are darling, the country is gorgeous, and I want to see Peter Rabbit and Thomas the train!!
Thanks for keeping the updates coming - I know it takes time and effort.
Any plans for Guy Fawkes night? :)
Take Care, Emily
Well, Emily it has been crazy around here for Guy Fawkes night. It has been going on for 3 days now!! They have been setting off fireworks all around our house, villages are having bon fires and special feasts (really just a little party for villagers). It's been interesting, too cold to take the kids out since Liam is sick...maybe next year. Hope you and the family are well.
Love to you all,
Shelby
