What a hot and sunny filled week it has been! I only need to look at my home and see the lack of housework that has been done, to know that the boys and I have made the most of the glorious weather while it lasts!
Here is my week that was…….
Burton went to Ladybirds so Jenson and I stayed indoors because it was very hot outside. Burton ended up staying at his Granma’s tonight because his cousins were all having a sleepover so he was invited to go along too.
Jenson and I headed into town late this afternoon to get a few bits and grapes were shared on the way home to help cool us both down!
Burton was dropped back home after breakfast and I took him and Jenson to the park early before it got too hot and it was quite busy for 9.30am!
At lunchtime my Mum, Uncle and his wife came and after we ate lunch we took the boys to Instow beach which was lovely. We purposely didn’t head over until after 3pm so that it wouldn’t too hot. It was just lovely and we all the boys loved building sandcastles and collecting shells. Jenson did complain about having to wear his hat though!
The bath was full of sand when I bathed the boys at bedtime!
The boys and I headed over to Granma’s this morning for some paddling pool fun! It was Jenson’s first time in one and he loved it although he kept getting in and out, in and out and so on! Fidget boy! Daddy collected us after tea to take us home.
I made some mars bar muffins this morning to take with me to Ella’s this afternoon for a tweet up. Jenson didn’t come with us as he went to my Mum’s for a couple of hours (I collected him on the way home) but Burton did and he played with Ella’s children mostly in the sandpit and paddling pool. It was lovely to meet properly as although I have met her twice before (Blogcamp Bristol and a SW Mums tweet up last year), we have never actually chatted. She (and her children) is very lovely.
The boys and I didn’t get home until gone 6.30pm, so once we had eaten and I had bathed them and got them into bed it was 8pm and they both fell straight to sleep.
The boys and I went into town to buy some bits for our picnic lunch. When we got home and I got everything packed up, my Mum turned up to join us on our al fresco lunch. we had so much fun, playing with the ball, hiding under the weeping willow tree and the boys were making each other laugh!!
Afterwards, my Mum went and then the boys other Granma arrived to take the boys to hers for the night as Daddy and I are attending a 40th birthday bash tonight. The party was great and we were dirty stop outs as we didn’t arrive home until nearly 2am!!!
We went to collect the boys and were treated to a bacon butty by Granma – yum! Then we went to view a farmhouse which is up for sale – it would be an amazing place to live BUT needs a LOT of work doing to it (and money!) to make it suitable to live in.
After lunch Daddy and I took the boys to the park and took Burton’s car which he loved and lots of people commented on it and waved at him !!
We haven’t done much so far today, generally stayed indoors for some baking and cleaning (me), ironing and gaming (Daddy) and playing (boys). We are going to see some friends for a slice of birthday cake later on this afternoon. Still after a busy week and a day of sunshine and showers so far today, I don’t think it really matters.
And that concludes my week that was!

You with your sons in the sun! Love!
Loving your week that was with so many outdoor adventures. Best of all I love your approach to the house, I am now using the same one here, it is looking a school holiday tip so I think to myself, it shows I have been focusing my priorities in the right way! Thanks for linking up and sharing.
great

Sounds like a lovely week enjoying the sunshine! It’s lovely when you can meet up with the people behind the blogs you read. I’ve met a few people now and they are always just as lovely as you think. Plenty of cakes this week too, just what I like to see!
Well you’ve certainly excelled at baking! Send one of those Mars Bar muffins over here will you??
What a fab load of photos!
I love Js face in the Wednesday picture. He looks soo happy. Their beach outfits are really cute too. I think we need to invest in a paddling pool!
Awww, loving all the pictures of you and your boys enjoying all the lovely weather we’ve been having. And I absolutely love that picture of Jenson throwing a wobbly about his hat, such a precious little face, and so funny. And all your baking looks yummy as ever. X
What a lovely sunny week filled with outdoor play. loving all the photos as usual, especial the one where Jenson doesn’t want to wear his hat and the one of you with the boys. Those mars bar muffins looks amazing..making my big tummy rumble xxx
What a wonderful week you had. Lots of lovely pictures. Little Jensons face made me giggle when he didn’t want his hat on… my two used to hate having theirs on too! x
WOW! Busy, busy, busy! Looks like you had a great and busy week, that photo of Jenson crying about his hat is hysterical. I don’t normally like crying baby photos, but that one looks really fake and melodramatic.
Busy Busy week! What a lovely week too and it was lovely that the sun was shining wasnt it? Although it is raining here now. Those mars bar muffins look amazing! I wish I could cook and bake like you, although I would be the size of a house! x
What a fab week. I love the one of J not wanting his hat, reminds me of my little one xx
