  1. I’m sure your boys will have lots of great memories & your blog will help jog them when they’re older. I remember spending our 2p locker money on highland toffee bars or tomato flavour Snaps after swimming!

  2. Your boys will be so proud to not only look at this blog but to show it off, to show just what an amazing mum you were (are). Looks like another great week.

    I didn’t realise a flashback could be to yesterday – going to cheeky link up my yesterdays post, hope it counts.

    • awww you say the nicest things 🙂 thank you
      and yes a flashback can be from yesterday to yesteryear – a memory can be what you want it to be lol x x

  3. This is why I started my blog – it was me that couldn’t remember anything about anything we did together and I’m really glad I did it. Lovely photos!

  4. Lovely as always Jenny & never fear, you are creating amazing memories whether you have proof through the blog or not. Love the tree photo & the one in the tyre swing. Hope you’ll add this to the link up as well. Thanks Kierna

  5. My memory is terrible, I can never remember what I do yesterday never mind many years ago. I fear when my little one asks me questions when I’m older and I’ll not be able to tell her. I’m sure your boys will remember many of the things you’ve done and it’s great that you do so much together. Lovely post and photos x

  6. It’s one of the reasons I love blogging as even looking back a year or so I’ve forgotten things. I was very lucky in that my parents took loads of photos (well, not by todays’ standards but for the 70s and 80s it was loads!) and Mum always took great care to put them all in albums so I ‘remember’ lots about my childhood even if I only remember from the photo if you know what I mean!

  7. Such gorgeous photos. Jenson is getting so big. I love taking photos. The idea of not having photos of our memories as the kids grow up is a bit scary! x

  8. Lovely post Jenny. I often think about the memories I had and take the kiddies to the same places to create similar memories for them – obviously I have no control on what they actually remember but we are having a great time along the way! x

  9. Making memories, & recording them, is so important isn’t it? I’d’ve loved it if there was digital photography when I was youngl It just allows so many more photos – & videos to be taken. Great post, great photos 🙂

  10. I started my blog to capture all the memories we missed. I am loving the fact we record so much of our life for the kids when they are older 🙂

    Your pictures this week look fantastic it looks like you have all had a massive amount of fun x

  11. That seems so sad to not have memories from your childhood. I can remember quite a lot, the earliest being when i was 3 which is the age my eldest is now. I hope we are starting to make some lovely ones for him 🙂

  12. I’m sure the boys will remember their happy childhood but it will be nice for them to see the photographs of all the great fun they had making those wonderful memories. Thanks for sharing all your outdoor fun with Country Kids.

  13. I have fond memories of going to a outdoor pool with friends, all summer long.

    I started my blog for the same reasons. I wanted to remember the things we do and places we go. Even now, when a question comes up about when we did something, the children will tell me to check my blog!

Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment, a virtual cup of tea and slice of cake awaits you x
