Last week was half term. We had some amazing weather, which we  thoroughly enjoyed! The sun was shining and it was quite hot, I'm not a huge fan of really hot weather so finding some shade seemed like a good idea to me! We went for a lovely picnic to a fairly local park with plenty of shade but also lots of sunshine, too! The kids enjoyed playing in the sun (they were smothered in sun screen) whilst I sat in the sun and watched!


We packed egg and ham sandwiches, mini sausages, scotch eggs sausage rolls, cakes, cookies and some fruit etc! We spent a couple of hours at the park eating and playing and just chatting, enjoying the weather before walking along the river to get a well needed ice cream!
(My memory card has literally just broke on me, and I can't retrieve the photos NOOOOO!!! - along with many others - so I'll have to just post the photos I took on my phone. I'm trying to figure it out. WHY didn't I back them up straight away?!)








We're hoping to get out for an after school picnic sometime this week, we'll see how the weather goes though! Not long until the summer holidays, who's excited?! We are!!

How have you been enjoying the weather lately?

It's finally half term, a very welcome break from the school routine. Ellie was lucky and had a non pupil day. The boys were a little bit disappointed because they didn't have a non pupil day (They had there non pupil day last term when Ellie didn't). We decided to make the most of the weather because here in the U.K we're never sure how long the warm, sunny weather will last! So we went for a lovely walk down the lane and a long the river. We ate our lunch a long the river and I treated Ellie to a 'Monster Chocolate Cookie' which she thoroughly enjoyed.


We saw all kinds of wildlife, cows, squirrels, chickens and horses, swans and ducks. (I didn't manage to snap pics of all the animals we spotted).








I'm not a huge fan of very hot weather but there was a lovely breeze and plenty of shade along the river, which was more than welcome!


We had a fantastic time! This week coming up, we'll be sure to have lots of fun in the sun (hopefully there will be some sun!) with the boys,  too!
Have you been enjoying the weather?
