Hi everyone

Muppets I had been wondering where you were?
I'm great have really enjoyed the sun the last 2 days, we haven't had much and def don't get as much as England

Got my planting done but that is it as we had the PLUMBUM family sports day today, it was very funny, although we got abit carried away and forgot about the suncream ,

so feel like a bad mummy this evening
all dcs showered in clean jammies and in bed, dd2 turned brown but ds is abit red he is lighter skined, dd1 not too bad,

dh sat out on patio with a beer (before dinner) we are blessed with a brilliant view the only advantage to living at the top of a mountain!

good luck tomorrow HMHB, are you going to find out the sex?

Waves to CWWM & JKS

going to go do dishes
possibly make pack lunches before tomorrow
make bed

Supposed to be dh & I sat out with a beer, we pretend we're on hols watching the planes take off

Plum - love the sound of your view. love where we live in lots of ways, but 'consist' of fences and other houses....
