Embracing A Sunny Winters Day - #CountryKids

How fantastic was the weather last Sunday? It was just what we needed after the days of rain we have seen. Our plan was to go for breakfast and take the monkeys bowling but I felt we had to make the most of the weather! 
So our day started with daddy going for a run, then we went to Frankie & Benny's for breakfast, as I'd won a voucher for breakfast for four. By the time we'd eaten the monkeys were keen to get bowling but I suggested we went to Hylands Park first for a run about and some fresh air. Ultimately I really wanted to be outside and embrace the somewhat elusive sun that had decided to grace us with it's presence. We all had a fab time playing on the wooden fort and I took the opportunity to get more pictures of the monkeys having fun.

We left there before 1pm to take the monkeys as promised, ten pin bowling. A great time was had, before I declared we were popping to Tesco for a few bits and returning to the fort at Hylands. This time, it was rather more crowed than earlier but non the less, a great place to be on such a lovely day. It was so mild and the wood chip under foot was mainly dry with the odd boggy patch. We bumped into a few people we know, who were also taking advantage of the glorious weather.

Our day wasn't yet over, as on driving home we past the duck pond, we like to visit in the summer months, and I rode my new bike around the village on our return home. I was determined to stay outside in that sun and fresh air for as long as I possibly could!
