After what felt like weeks of rain and gloomy weather we were all thrilled to see some sunshine this weekend. Charlie and I have tried to get outside as much as possible even in the rain, but it’s been so bad that one day we went for a walk and only managed to get from the back to the front door, it was SO awful! He has LOVED the puddles though. There’s an especially large one on our walk to school which tends to take over the whole path, twice he got his shoes so wet they took 2 days to dry out again ( he was only wearing shoes as his wellies were too wet to wear from earlier in the day ). Luckily the rain held off for our day at Little Welly though.
Our lovely sand tray turned into sandy soup that finally today dried out again ( yay for sunshine ) and everything has just felt a bit damp. I did start to panic mid week as our tumble drier stopped working, everyone was low on clothes and there was no other way to dry anything. I’m not generally one of those people who gets excited about hanging clothes out to dry, but I was so relieved to finally have a line full of dry clothes on Friday!
Rob is definitely ready for summer and holidays with his super smart new sunglasses from SmartBuyGlasses . There are lots of great brands available including Ray Ban and Oakley ( my personal favourite ) and all at great prices too!. They also sell normal glasses frames, so I might take a look next time I need a new pair.
That’s one thing to cross off my holiday list anyway, just several hundred more things to plan, research and purchase and I might finally get a break!
How are your summer holiday plans coming along? I can’t believe how fast time is zipping by at the moment, it’ll be the end of term before we know it.
I can’t believe it’s almost July, we’re half way to Christmas for goodness sake! My boys loved jumping in puddles, my youngest is in his teens and still does occasionally.
It’s been a bit up and down weatherwise here. I just broke my sunglasses so need to go in search of another one I like. Thanks for the recommendation x
Planning all our summer activities right now, most a free or really cheap, just the odd one that costs money
I’ve got a festival in a few weeks and then a trip to Wales so I’m hoping the weather stays nice for it as it won’t be fun if it rains x
Those sunglasses are fab! We haven’t got much planned for the summer hols yet.
I haven’t even started my summer holidays plans – really need to get cracking
The weather was very sad in the last few weeks indeed. We are looking forward to our holiday already!
I’m so ready for a permanent improvement to the weather!
The weather can be a pain at times and is all over the place. We are all planned up for the summer yay xx
We are off to Gran Canria so need to pack and find the sunglasses, I love oakley and Rayban too.
My kids would love that! Looks very interesting.. It looks really fun. Summer always bring happy activities in my family.
Summer is so short – we need to plan all the activities… we don’t want to miss the opportunity as it end so fast. I definitely should live in a warmer climate
Yes indeed – those sunglasses are amazing!
