Son of a Nutcracker Its Christmas again already!
As some of you are aware, Vicky (our Social Media manager, and my long suffering wife) and I are Foster Carers, and its been a fun year for us Mahons, with Babies coming into our care and what an adrenaline shot they have been… As a Dad to the two most epically awesome children on the planet (we all think we have the best kids, and NONE of us are wrong) I had quite forgotten how entertaining, and hilarious babies can be… and its been some of the most rewarding times in our fostering career to take these newborns in, and watch them flourish, before sadly (for us) leaving to go to a forever family…
This year alone, we have looked after and in some cases still are, seven different children.. the Mahon house is always loud, sometimes chaotic, sometimes tearful, but always HAPPY!... and watching my mini-Mahons embrace new arrivals and sharing their Mum & Dad, without a seconds pause reminds me daily just how special my children are, and a glimpse into the wonderful people they could become.
So, from My family, to you, your family, your friends, your nearest & dearest (yes, that includes the cat) have a most peaceful holiday season, and the very best wishes, for an excellent New Year.
See you in 2024!

Three Peaks Challenge!
So I will start with a little background. My younger sister Ellie has been very interested in basketball since she was five years old. At six she was signed up to a local basketball club, Redditch Basketball, run by Dave Bradshaw in our local area, he accepted Ellie joining the team however she was much younger and smaller than anyone else. This didn’t stop Ellie she worked hard and attended many training sessions and games, to begin with she may only have played a few minutes when it came to match days, as you can imagine as a little female six year old she was playing with older boys who towered over her. But it didn’t take long before basketball became much more than fun. ..

Why Didn’t I Think About That?
Howdy from East Texas where the weather is unusual to say the least. Here it is late May going into June and we have yet to cross 90f yet and as I type this, it is raining yet again and the temperature on the porch is a mild 66f. Yes, we Texans always like to talk about the weather because if you don’t like what it is now just wait an hour and it will be totally different.
