The Gallery 92 - Landscapes

This week's Gallery Prompt at from the lovely Tara over at Sticky Fingers is  Landscapes.

I had many pictures I could have used for this, but the one I chose to use was this one. This is the landscape from the edge of the beach at Whitely Bay. This was our last family holiday last year taken in August. Lucas had the chicken pox, so we didn't get out as much as we would have liked. However, the beach and the lighthouse was one of our favourite places to visit.

One Boy And His Love Of Pigs

Anyone who follows me on twitter will know how much my youngest Tyler, who turned 3 last month, is obsessed with pigs. He loves them, soft ones, toys, clothes, in books, the television, you name it he loves it. I have no idea where this obsession came from as his favourite toy from when he was a baby was a stuffed penguin he got at Edinburgh zoo. He still has it and it still goes to bed with him, but he is surrounded by his piggy entrouage. 

We tried to take him to Tollcross Farm which is quite close to us for his birthday as we were told they had some pigs. We went and they weren't out. He wasn't too upset but kept saying piggy over and over again. I felt so guilty and that I'd ruined his birthday, but explained we would go again soon. So on Saturday we decided to make the trip to see if the pigs were out. I made sure I pre-warned him that they might not be out as there was a lot of hail and some snow. He was ok with that but you could see his little face light up when we told him where we were going. 

I asked him what he would like to wear. Big mistake. He promptly went to the wardrobe and pulled out his piggy outfit. "Mummy I want to wear this to see the piggies." Ok, how can I argue with the cutness of this outfit.  His dad on the other hand didn't think we could leave the house with said dressing up outfit on. But was amazed when no one seemd to bat an eyelid at it.
