We made our way to the Henley Cricket Club (right across the Henley bridge) for the first birthday party of the weekend. It was lots of fun for the kids and Stegen and I managed to make a few adult dates too!
As we left the party, we took a little walk along the other side of the river (away from the rowing museum) and got to see some rowers at work. There's no crossfit gym here...maybe I just need to join the rowing team?
Stegen also found a house that he loves...with a tiny door!
Today's birthday party turned out to be geared towards the little guys, so Stegen took off with Dorian by train and Audrey and I went around town for the "Henley-on-Christmas" scavenger hunt.
On our way home (in the rain), we randomly came upon a group of people caroling in the maketplace.
for the next two years you will still find yourself asking the same things. stegen is starting to look a bit brit there with the scarf and all join crew...that will get you in shape real quick. even more than just doing the concept 2 rower.
ReplyDeleteHeck yeah, definitely join a rowing crew! Not just for your own benefit, but also as an example to Audrey & Dorian about taking time to exercise. Think about what an example you set for Audrey - "My mum competes!" That is a far better role model then any celebrity could ever be for a young girl.
ReplyDeleteAnother plus, I'm pretty sure the rowing team has access to more than just row boats for training - weights perhaps?
Just think, you could return both talking funny and in awesome shape!
