Our weekend in photos

enjoying the sunshine!

Hello! Hope you all had a good Easter weekend! Ours was a fun, relaxing weekend – perfect after a hectic week. My Mum came over on Thursday, it’s always good to have family visit. We enjoyed the sunshine, played in the park, planted some seeds, bought new dolls, played in a different park, ate lots of chocolate, hunted for the Easter eggs that the Easter Bunny hid in our garden, skyped with Uncle Andrew in America, watched Frozen {again}, did two more easter egg hunts, saw lambs, chicks, goats and bunnies and played outdoors lots! It was the perfect weekend!

Easter Bunny brought us all lots of yummy chocolates, I’m not sure the kiddos have much of theirs left…. Easter Sunday I made a huge roast dinner, followed by yummy easter themed desert – half chocolate eggs, filled with ice-cream and topped with chocolate dipped fruit. I think it’s time for a juice fest now after all that chocolate!

The girlies always like it when Gramsie is here, someone new to show off their newly learnt skills, to read books to them and to play with! Living far from family, it’s extra special to be able to spend holidays with them

    Aww looks like you had a lovely Easter! Our household has all been ill over the Easter weekend so we’ve had to postpone any Easter activities until today unfortunately – and of course, the weather is awful!

    Little lamb, so gorgeous. It was good that the weather was alright over the weekend too, for a change. I do like that climbing frame creature, I thought it was a dragonfly at first.

    I love the way that Grandmas have the patience to feign interest in all the things us mummies just don’t have time for on a day to day basis! Looks like you’ve had a lovely weekend :) x

    Ach, looks lovely, I had my mum over too for the past two months, it’s been wonderful to see her bond with the kids and enjoy them so! Grannies are the best!

    What a great Easter. I particularly like the sound of your dessert – what a great idea! I’d never think to fill the egg halves with ice cream but I love it – definitely going to try that!

    Looks like a great weekend. We went away and didn’t get much sleep on Sat night so J spent all day Sunday crying!! It was nice to see my family though. I def need to do an egg hunt for the kids next year, I didn’t even get them an egg this year, luckily they are too young to notice! x
