Our Summer Holiday - Week One

Week One - Saturday 18th-Friday 24th July 2015

A beautiful sunny morning at the Nurture Barn in Essex where Henry rode his first ever horse. He LOVED it so much. The barn itself was gorgeous too and we had a yummy lunch together.

We went to the Splash Park in Maldon with our friends. Henry loved running in and out of the water with his little friend Jess and then we had an ice lolly by the sea while the little ones threw pebbles in to the water. A really lovely afternoon.

A day at the zoo. We went to Colchester zoo for the whole day with my sister in law and Henry's three cousins. He particularly loved feeding the birdies and has talked about it ever since.

Some science fun at The Discovery Museum in Newcastle. He was particularly impressed with the mirror room, he was absolutely fascinated!!

Wednesday was all about coffee and cake. We met one of my friends in Durham and then met Marmar at the garden centre for a walk then play inside with coffee and cake. A lovely midweek treat.

So many gorgeous lazy mornings this week just snuggling up and watching cartoons.

A trip to Broomhouse Farm for tea, bacon sandwiches and cake with Marmar and Parpar. And to feed the goats and chickens, of course! 

A picnic in the park, just the two of us.

And some strawberry and raspberry picking at Brocksbushes. Henry just plonked himself next to the basket and tucked in, I couldn't pick as fast as he was eating which was a struggle! 

Rhubarb sorbet at Wheelbirks. A lovely Friday treat.

My beautiful big boy with his new horsie t shirt. 

We did some baking and made Bing Bunny's favourites - carroty muffins!

Our first ever Friday night family pizza and film night. Hopefully the start of a new tradition.
