Family Day January 14th: Part 1 The Frosts.

Yesterday was a great family day - a day of 2 parts and 2 branches of the family.

This is the first part.
There were 14 of us, all connected to the Frost family.
We sat down to a good lunch together. Ruth took some photos of the group, which I hope to see at some point.
I have portraits of people both at home and on our walk.

Niece Megan and her son on the left and my nephew - half nephew? I am not sure.
Families get complicated.







              




Our nephew, Simon and his, soon to be wife, Nicki.
On the right, my brother, Roger and his wife, Sue and Mike tuck into a pudding of apple pie, fruit salad and ice cream.
Mike is the only on not directly related to me - and yet the connection is there.

Bill and Otto. Otto is a nephew, half nephew or whatever!

Life is such fun for a 3 year old!



















People begin a short walk in the winter afternoon sunshine.













We have just left the family home and almost immediately opposite is the old family home.
This is the house I grew up in from 1949 to 1965.














Family in Rectory Lane.

St Margaret's Church, where Bill and I were married in 1965.


















 Originally farm buildings.
Now The Barn Theatre.















Walking between The Barn and the church.


We met up with half brother, Matt and his daughter, Anna at the playground.














Felix swings across the bars.























































Time to get back for tea and cake.






























We will all be together again in 5 weeks to celebrate Megan and Tom's wedding.
