A Week Off

Last week Peter and I took a weeks holiday...initially we were going to go away but we ended up staying at home and having a few days out with Sunshine and doing stuff around the house. Sunshine will tell you all about the fun stuff we did!

As the weather was so lovely, we finally erected the gazebo and table we purchased at the end of last summer....Hmm...the gazebo is rather grand (i.e. probably a little too big for the garden) but houses the table nicely...so whilst the weather was lovely we enjoyed some al fresco dining!

Tuesday was a fun day for us because we had the day to ourselves...so after dropping Sunshine off with her child-minder, we had a round (9 holes) of golf at Windlemere. This was quite a momentous occasion as it has been well over 2.5 years since I picked up my clubs, what with being pregnant then out of commission with my back! Anyhow I managed to bag a couple of bogies and actually one a hole from Peter....who incidentally seemed to be playing down to my level and had the most disgraceful of scores (he said) since we first started playing! Now we just need to find time to go play again....

After that we had lunch out which was a nice unhurried, relaxed affair at Pizza Express. Whilst we were in town, the Early Learning Centre did very well...and so did Sunshine! I felt a bit like a mean Mummy as she didn't have many outside type toys...so her birthday came early! We spent the afternoon assembling stuff and Peter had fun destroying the 'clutter table' which used to hog the conservatory...Sunshine has more room to play in now and an inside place to paint!
