Bank holiday madness

It's been a busy week with the bank holiday last weekend... smallest has been really unsettled and not been sleeping well at all, so I think we are all a bit unhinged just now.

We began the weekend with a picnic in Williamson's Park in Lancaster. Smallest hung out with her friend Harker, sang some songs and mostly ate grass. Saturday we headed over to Manchester to see some old friends. Pretty Mark was turning 30, something he has been fearing for a while, so really we went for moral support. It was smallests first BBQ - I think she liked the halloumi best.

Sam was most productive on Sunday and Monday, with some help from his folks we finally filled in the muddy hole in the back garden and began laying the patio.... I never thought I would be so excited about being able to get to the washing line!! 'The life I lead!!'

Smallest and I also saw a hedgehog! That was the best....
