The Buckleys´ home (Part 2)

Dear Readers,

Long time ago, I posted a tour around The Buckleys´home.
As I promised,at last,I´m back with the second part.

Hope you like it.

💙🏡🏡🏡💙

Agatha and Rupert are in the living room. Rupert is marking Maths tests and Agatha is checking her agenda to see what´s on her schedule for tomorrow.

Maria and Freddie are doing their homework in their rooms.

Maria is very hard working and a very good student. She wants to be a teacher like her parents.

Freddie likes to study on his bed rather than at his desk but more than once he has fallen asleep with a book on his hands.

While Maria and Freddie are doing their homework, little Oscar plays in the living room.

He has a big basket filled with toys and books. 

but his favourite toy is his rocking horse.

"Give me a little push, Maria"

"Oscar, you´ve been rocking on your horse for an hour.Come with daddy"

Oscar also loves story books, especially when his sister Maria or his mum reads them to him.

 Getting into bed with mum to listen to a bedtime story is the best way to end the day for Oscar.

Before bedtime comes bathtime and Oscar and Freddie really enjoy having a bubble bath together.The more bubbles the better.

"Freddie! You did it again! I told you not to put too much bath gel!"

After Freddie´s and Oscar´s bathtime, Agatha changes out the wet towels and hangs up fresh and clean ones.

Maria prefers to have a quick bath in the morning just before going to school.Mum always helps her to put her favourite flower hairband. 

She looks very pretty! 

Once a week, after school, Agatha meets up with some of her friends for afternoon tea.Today she´ll be the host. Her friends Lucy Fenton and Holly Golightly will come for tea.

Agatha enjoys the company of good friends and, of course, being with her loved ones but she also likes to have some time just for herself. 

At the weekends, when her family is still in bed in the morning, she prefers to get up as soon as she wakes up, instead of lingering in bed, to enjoy some quiet and peaceful time.

The views from the balcony are absolutely beautiful.

This extra quiet time doesn´t last for a long time. Oscar is also an early bird. Rupert would have loved to stay in bed for a bit longer but Oscar wanted to get up and give mum a good morning kiss.

"Morning, mum!"

"Where is my kiss?"

"Good morning, love"

Agatha loves spending time with her family. Cooking is something they enjoy together,especially when they make something sweet.

Today they are making a raspberrie puff pastry tart.

"Here are the berries, mum!"

Oscar and Freddie made a bit of the mess with the sugar.

Here comes Rupert with the oven tray.

Rupert put the tart into the oven.Oscar and Freddie are looking forward to having a piece.

While the tart is baking in the oven all the family helps tidy up and clear the kitchen table.

"Oscar! Mind the eggs!" Maria warned her little brother who wanted to be of some help.

After all the work, they deserve to sit down to have a piece of their homemade berry puff pastry tart.

As you have just seen Oscar is very helpful in the kitchen. 

I wonder what is he up to now. Why are you pushing your high chair, Oscar?

I think I know.

I´m sure you can guess too.

Oops! He was caught red-handed!

"Do you want a cookie, mum?" Oscar whispered.

"Sure, I´ll have one" Agatha couldn´t resist the charm of Oscar´s guilty face.

Mmmm!

Just one more!I promise I´ll eat my peas and broccoli, mum!

When I  first showed you the Buckely´s home (part 1) I didn´t post any pictures of their garden.

They have a lovely garden where they love spending time especially in spring and summer.

The garden swing is everyone´s favourite and they have to take turns to swing on it.

"It´s my turn to sit on the swing" Freddie claimed.

"Maria, it´s your brother´s turn! Rupert insisted"

The children can also play in the front garden.

"Come on, Freddie, pass me the ball" Maria demanded.

Maria kicked the ball so high that it went up to the balcony. Rupert threw the ball down and it fell on one of the bushes.

"Can you reach the ball, Oscar?"

As you can see the Buckleys love spending time together and enjoy family life at home.

Rupert and Agatha are very proud of their family.  

A happy family!

💙🏡🏡🏡💙

It was high time I posted the second part! All the pictures were taken last summer (2018) Better late than never...

Hope you enjoyed getting to know a bit more about the Buckleys when they are at home.

A big hug!
