Last week, actually, bank holiday weekend we went to an air show! It was an hour away on the bus.
We missed the start of the red arrows airshow because the bus was stuck in traffic, luckily we did see some while waiting in the traffic!
We eventually got to the seafront and watched the rest of the red arrows display and it was AMAZING! There were so many people there and i was very loud but we really enjoyed watching the red arrows.
After we watched the red arrow display, we went and got some lunch. Sausage and chips from teh fish & chip shop. It was busy, I think next year, we'll take a picnic, hehe. We sat down in the one of the parks by the seafront and ate our lunch, while watching more of the airshow! It was great fun.
We took a long walk along the seafront and had a look around some of the stalls and what not! The kids got so many freebies, pens, paper, balloons etc. We also walked along the pier and had a god on the 2p machines! Ellie and the boys all won £5 each which is rare, because usually we don't win a thing, haha. Ellie and Charlie also had a go on the little car rides and Harry had a go at penalty kick, he won a multi coloured football! He was pleased with that.
On the way back to the bus stop the kids stopped off and spent some of there money that they had won on the 2p machines, bless 'em.
We were all exhausted by the time we got home. It was a fab day!

A couple of week ago, while the weather was actually quite warm and sunny, we decided to go for a walk in the woods! It was a really lovely, warm, summer evening so we thought we'd make the most of it! And I am really glad we did because the weather lately has been really wet and windy!
We really enjoy walking through the woodland! We're so fortunate to live in such a beautiful place in the countryside.
I of course tried to take a photo of all three "little's" together but that's easier said than done, haha. My eldest isn't keen on having his photo taken but I did manage to snap this shot.
The boys love playing football! I do hope we have some more lovely summer evenings before summer is over! Fingers crossed.

We trekked through the woods and walked down by the pond! We did finish our walk off with a game of football and some running around on the big field.

The weather has been really wet and windy lately but that hasn't stopped us from going out in the rain. The boys were playing around a friends house and Ellie had her friend around but they were so bored being stuck inside so we decided, we wouldn't let the rain beat us, no! We ventured out in welly boots and winter coats for a splash in the puddles and a walk in the rain.
Ellie told me how much she enjoyed splashing in puddles and "I like muddy puddles best. A bit like peppa pig" Haha, trust her to like muddy puddles best. It all comes out in the wash though!
Summertime might almost be over, it doesn't mean we can't still enjoy the weather, whatever that might be. Rain, sun, hot or cold! We can still have fun outdoors!
It's a shame the boys weren't with us because I know they would have really enjoyed it, too but there is always next time! They did have a lovely time playing around there friends house though.
And it doesn't look like the bad weather is letting up anytime soon, so maybe we'll be able to all go, sooner than we think!

One of my things to achieve on my 101 in 1001 days list, is to complete a whole 52 weeks of reasons to be cheerful and/or thankful. So I thought I would start this week and stick with it this time! It always makes me feel happier and more positive when I think of all the reasons to smile and be thankful, too! So here are the things that make me smile this week...
Firstly, I am so glad it's the summer holidays, I do like having the kids home with me and I also like the break from the school routine. I still can not believe that my eldest starts high school in a couple of weeks, that's just crazy.
I'm thankful that the kids have been really well behaved lately (Touch wood). They've had a lot of fun having picnics and playing outside in the fresh air! We've been to the park a few times and they've enjoyed some arts and crafts, too! I'm looking forward to enjoying (whats left of) summer with them.
I am also grateful that the weather has been a bit cooler recently. I am not a fan of the heat and I much prefer the cooler weather. I like it when I can wear a T.shirt and not be too hot or too cold. Perfect weather in my opinion! Lets make the most of it now before the cold weather comes :)
What's made you smile this week? Let me know in the comments, I'd love to hear your reasons to be cheerful and thankful.

We went to castle park for a picnic the other day. It's such a beautiful place to visit and one of our absolute favourite places to visit! I wish I had of taken my proper camera but phone photos are better than none! Enjoy :)
Aren't they all so beautiful? The flower displays and gardens in castle park truly are so pretty! Me and the little's loved the dragon flower beds!
We hope you've been enjoying the summer so far!
