Tuesday: Kids went to Dads' Group and we picked plums & blackberries at Water's Edge.
Wednesday: Picnic and play at Normanby Hall.
Thursday: Nerf gun war at Playtowers in Cleethorpes (Lewis's party).
Friday: Baked cookies with Noelle. Butterfly and bear ones with pink, purple, yellow and turquoise blue icing!
Saturday: Nothing, and it was really nice!
I'm going to be happy to have Dylan back at school just so I don't have to be the activities co-ordinator any more. I need some good ideas!
Next week (please help me fill in the blanks):
Monday: Either Sutton or Cleethorpes beach or Doncaster Dome (weather dependent).
Tuesday: Iceskating for Dylan and swimming for Edith in Sheffield.
Wednesday:
Thursday: A ramble throughTwigmoore woods.
Friday: Feeding the animals and playing on the playground at the Pink Pig Farm.
Saturday:
I don't know how my U.S. family do it, with three months of summer. I'm struggling to fill 6 weeks! Of course, we could always stay home. But I feel so guilty if I don't take the kids somewhere to do something fun--like I'm wasting Dylan's summer holiday. Plus, Dylan starts to go a little bit stir-crazy and then he picks on his sister.
I really need a bigger back garden.
Having said that, I'm still enjoying having the time with my son. Just 4 more weeks until he is at school all day long. My baby, gone for 6 1/2 hours a day. It's gonna be weird with just me and Edith rattling around in this big old house. Weird, but nice.
Now, some more pictures of our summer fun:
Doing a bit of baking at Eureka!
We got to see how a toilet works!
Craft time.
In a giant honeycomb--couple of busy bees!

With 3 months of summer we get to go out and play AND stay home sometimes and not feel guilty about it:) The best of both worlds! We only have two weeks left and the summer has flown as always! Hope the rest of yours is fun!
