There'll Be A Welcome.....

On Sunday, Mr Fink, Nelly and I joined my sis-in-law (Big Sis), her hubby Hatter, Ivy (their daughter), Ell (their son), Scrappy (Ivy's hyperactive boxing husband), Chip, Berry (Ivy and Scrappy's son and daughter),
Silver Surfer (my father in law), Coral, Padraig and Cupid (Silver Surfer's daughter, her husband and their blond curly haired son).
We had all gathered to meet and welcome into our family, Silver Surfer's fiancĂ©e, Bonnie.
Apparently she was really nervous about meeting us all - can't think why?! Anyway Bonnie, and Silver Surfer were soon in the bosom of the clan, being climbed on by the children, fed by Big Sis and entertained by Scrappy. We spent a lovely afternoon playing with the children and reading stories, chasing Thomas the rabbit around the garden and eating lovely lasagna.
As we were sitting yarning in the living room, Bonnie asked about the tattoo on my foot, Silver Surfer looked at my foot with an odd expression. "How long have you had that?" he asked. "Since last August Bank Holiday." I said. he stood up to take a picture of it when i said, "You already took a photo, at Big Sis's wedding last year."
There was a light-bulb moment and he said,
"I was looking through the wedding pics the other day and I came across this picture of a tattooed foot and I couldn't work out why it was there or who it belonged to?!" Mystery solved, although I did advise Bonnie it might be worth checking through the rest of his pics to see what else he's forgotten!

All in all, another wonderful day with the family I love, welcome Bonnie - don't be a stranger.
