We had a trip to Rob's parents house in Warwickshire today to say our goodbyes to his family. Rob's brother and his family were there too. It was lovely to see them all, and sad to say goodbye as we probably aren't going to them until we come back next summer. Rob's school friend, who shares the same surname (they were seated alphabetically at school) and his wife also popped around to see us.
Rob's Mum gave us a series of plates depicting the colonisation and settlement of north America, to take with us to Texas. They are a family heirloom that had belonged to Rob's paternal grandmother, and she thought they would be apt for our move. A lovely surprise, we will take good care of them.
