We have had a pretty chilled one this week with a lot of time spent at home and with friends, I have also done a lot of things for me this week which has been lovely. The boys have been a lot more settled this week and we seem to be getting into a nice routine in the new house.
1. Watching Mamma Mia. On Saturday I had a child free day and spent the day with my Mum & Nan watching Mamma Mia at the theatre. I had such a lovely day and we even squeezed in lunch at a lovely pub on the way. The show was brilliant and I found myself singing the songs all the way home.
2. Cinema date. I went to the cinema and watched The Jungle Book with my oldest friend and it was lovely to have a catch up and eat sweets.
3. Meeting the animals. Our best friends invited us to a local garden centre on Sunday where they had a meet the animals event. The boys got to see rabbit, guinea pigs, a pony, birds and a lot more. After seeing the animals we had a stroll around the garden centre and the kids got to play on the park, it was lovely to spend time with them.
4. Shopping & lunch out. I can't remember the last time I went shopping for a lengthy period and not rush in and out of shops. Well on Monday I went shopping with my best friend and our littlests. We shopped for about 4 hours and had a lovely lunch, we had a good old shopping spree! It was so lovely and after, once we had picked Finley up from preschool, we had a little playdate while we drank tea and chilled after our busy day lol.
5. Girls night in. We had wine, pizza and cheese - perfect!
6. Playing in the garden. The weather has been seriously hit and miss but we have managed to get out in the garden, be it very cold though.
7. Running club. I joined my local running club and went to my first session on Wednesday. I loved it. It was lovely to meet other people with the same interest as me and also I was able to find out about some local 10k's and half marathons that they are doing.
8. More park dates. We have enjoyed more days at the park, it so lovely to just get out!
Looks like you've had a lovely week. What's the Jungle Book like? My oldest is nearly 8 and she'd like to see it...but can be a bit of a wimp! #justanotherlinky

Ooh, let us know how you get on with the running club. I would love to get back into running and would like to join one, but time is of the essence as I try to spend all my weekends with Piglet as working full time I don't get much chance to do that during the week. Looks like you've had a fab week! #justanotherlinky
ReplyDeletelooks like a great week. We are thinking about seeing The Jungle Book next weekend. Thoughts on appropriate age?
ReplyDeleteI loved Mamma Mia! We saw it in New York for out 10th Wedding Anniversary (without kids). The only thing was, we were a bit jet-lagged and fought to keep our eyes open. Jungle Book is on our list over the next few weeks. Glad you had a time packed with family and friends. Hope the running club goes well! #justanotherlinky
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderful weekend! How was the Jungle Book? I have seen the previews and am pretty excited to go see it. #justanotherlinky

ReplyDeleteI'm so envious of all your dates. Although we did manage to sneak out for a meal this week. It really does sound like you had a busy week, there's nothing better than having things to do and look forward to though x thanks for hosting x
ReplyDeleteSounds like the perfect week to me, busy though! :) Great you've joined a new running group.... I actually went for my first outdoors run in a very very long time yesterday and discovered how unfit I really am, going to work at it though!
