Sunday Summary (and a question)

Firstly, before I tell you about the weekend, a question for you all: how do you decide if you should blog about personal matters? Something happened this week that is pretty major but I'm unsure whether to share or not? How did you all feel about sharing the more personal aspects of your life? Do you ever regret posting about them or have you made the conscious decision not to?


Anyway, back to the weekend...


This morning we went to my friend Nadia's allotment to meet her ducks/ chickens:

{You'll notice Ben now has short hair after a second incident of him 'playing hairdresser' occurred at school! We had to take him for a severe chop.}

Ben is eager to go back again and spend some time there doing some digging and enjoying a picnic- sounds like a grand plan to me!

Afterwards we met with four other families from Ben's school and had a great day at Woodhorn Colliery- link! We had a great time playing football, finding out about coal mining, eating a picnic and enjoying a ride on the miniature steam train.

{Me, wind swept and enjoying the train ride}

{The beautiful modern structure juxtaposed with the traditional}

{A brilliant day!}

{Spot the ball- you won't spot the women as we were all stood chatting at this point!}

I'll try to post a bit more often this week, but as I said, we've been thrown a bit of a curve ball and 'normal life' has taken a bit of a back seat.

Can you believe next weekend I turn thirty? Happy weekend folks.x
