Happy Fathers Day!


We wished Pete a happy fathers day over the phone this afternoon as he'd already left for Scotland on Friday so then it was the turn of MY dad. We popped round to see him and my step mum Liz this evening. The kids adore their grandad and each of them has a completely different relationship with him. Freya was the only grandchild for quite along time so she has a very strong bond with her grandparents anyway. My dad watched Emily being born which also gives their relationships a bit of a special twist and she really dotes on him. As for Natasha, well she runs (or rather stumbles) towards him whenever he holds his arms out.

It's always very difficult to get a shot with all the girls in it so i was pleased to get them all with my dad tonight, never ever thought they would look in the same direction though...that will NEVER happen!

I took quite a few snaps of the girls whilst i was there, still not understanding quite what i'm doing and without a tripod there were plenty of blurry shots but i did manage to get the one person who CAN sit still (but who HATES posing) do so for lots of photos. She was very reluctant...but now i have my DSLR she'll have to get used to it!
