Park life

Had a really great time at Center Parks this weekend. We had a lovely lodge in the middle of the forest, we saw baby deer, rabbits and ducks from our window every day. We're feeling fit now after cycling around on our bikes all weekend and doing lots of walking. I also managed to fit in an aerobics class so I felt very virtuous on my visits to the Spa. The children went to nursery for a few hours each day to give us a break and we had a babysitter two nights. Joe loved the nursery and came out each day with bundles of paintings that he'd done. I have to admit I wasn't expecting much but I had a really great time. They really do go out of their way to make it so easy for young families, everything you can possibly think of is there. We had such a good time that we've booked up again for next year!

On the garden front, Clive, the plant man, comes tomorrow to put some plants in the bed and the lawn goes down on Thursday. It's really looking good now and we're very pleased with it. Can't wait to get the deck chairs out there.
