Anyway we've had a fabulous weekend and had lots and lots of fun in the sun.
Friday
We all went to the shop and I bought us a Cornetto each, then went to the park which is also across the road from us. It's lucky that we were all slathered in factor 50 as there was a lovely breeze which masked the fact that it was actually scorching. The Darlings loved just running round on the grass while I sat down snapping away.
Saturday
Another beautiful day. We met my sister and my nieces for breakfast then went to my mum and dad's house. After lunch, swimsuits were donned and the paddling pool was filled up. Oliver, Lydia and their cousin Amelia had a ball playing and splashing. After a while my dad brought out half a bottle of shower gel, which he squirted into the water causing an absolute mountain of bubbles! Needless to say the kids loved it.
Sunday
Hubby was working in the morning so I decided to make the most of another day of sunshine by going to our local park, Greenhead Park. In my humble opinion it is the best park in the world! But I might be a bit biased as I lived very close as a child and spent a lot of time there. So I have a special attachment to it and feel so happy to now be watching my children playing there and enjoying the park. It's recently undergone a huge restoration project and is beautiful {I feel an idea for a new post coming on all about Greenhead Park!}
Wow what a lovely weekend you had, how cool is your Dad making the bubbles.

DeleteJealous of your warm weather. Its hot water bottle weather here in the aussie winter...
ReplyDeleteOh Gina please don't be jealous! The English weather is so unreliable, it's torrential rain now! I'll be very jealous come October when it's getting cold and dark here and all you lovely Aussies are getting ready for Summer. Thanks for visiting xx
