England 2010: Part 8

During our last week in England, Steve was off from work and the girls were on a special "vacation" from school, so we got to see them every day! On Monday, we went to their house in the morning to play and to see all the renovations they'd been doing, which look really great. I stayed in the car for a while with Maddie as she napped in her carseat, but from what I hear, the kids played "grocery shopping/cashier" inside for ages! For a few days after that, Ollie had a pocketful of plastic pence and pound coins. Around midday we all headed out to Cheshire Ice Cream Farm where we had lunch in the cafe and then super yummy ice cream - you have to look at their list of flavors, it's insane! I had toffee fudge. With tummies full, we spent a couple of hours in their big "play barn," which had a big-kid section, and a toddler section. It was here that Maddie, a couple of weeks shy of her 18-month birthday, first walked about 5 steps on her own! We were all very excited! Yay, Maddie!
