Back from Our Devon Castle


We just spent the last four days in the heart of Devon- at Tiverton Castle. My parents joined us and it was a pure joy. Several of the memories will make separate posts, so here are some things to set the scene.

Easter service at St. Peters in Tiverton.

Catching up with family- both parents and people on Bella's side.
