A Family Update
Right! I haven't posted anything for a week so I thought I'd just update you on what's been going on in the Doggrell house!
Andy continues to be busy at work, trying very hard to keep up with all of the demands from the 87 schools he has to look after. I'm sure he does an excellent job but it does stress him out sometimes! But, with the economic situation being what it is I'm sure lots of people are finding things a little tougher than before and we have much to be thankful for.
I'm still enjoying being a housewife and looking after our little flat! We would love to have a house but we are blessed in having this place which is our own home after all. It's plenty big enough for us and it's nice to have a spare room for guests (or anyone else that might come along!) I've settled into Hemel now and can find my way around most places now! I do miss Shrewsbury sometimes and my friends and family there, but this has become home and I am enjoying being here!
This weekend it was good to see Paul and Ruth and family (minister at SEC and family). They came down for a friends wedding and stayed at Andy's mum's house. It was nice to spend time with them and we helped to look after the boys when the others went to the wedding. I'm a bit out of practice with children and we were both exahusted by the end of the day! But it was good fun! And good practice!
Apart from all that there isn't much else going on really! So that's about it form me for now!

Knebworth
Hope you all had a good break over Easter? (However long it was!) We had a really good weekend seeing friends and family.
Sunday was pretty much as normal and then on Monday Andy took me to Knebworth where they had a jousting exhibition. There are some really lovely grounds and house as well. The family that own the place still live there and one of them was even joining in the jousting!
On Friday we had a visit from our friends Stefan and Rachel and their new baby, Caleb. They were staying in London with his parents, which is where Emma and Jo were as well so they came too! It was nice to see everyone and I got a cuddle with Caleb which was nice!
Then on Saturday went went over to Northampton to see my Grandparents and spend the day with them. Andy and Grandad managed to beat Grandma and me at Sequence and I think Andy has picked Rumikub up far to quickly! He was doing far too well! (I lost Rumikub in case you were wondering!)

My Alarm Clock!
The past couple of mornings I've been woken up early by the sound of a bird singing just outside our window! Then this morning I noticed a pair of starlings busy building a nest in the roof, so it looks like it's going to be happening a lot! Hopefully I'll just learn to sleep through it!
