A day out in London with Em for my birthday treat. We had such a great day and packed so much in. We did all the touristy stuff... even got a tour on an open top bus and a boat trip along the Thames.

I cant believe there are only 2 weeks left of the summer holidays already and Elizabeth will be starting 'big girl school' soon. Its just gone crazy fast!

I have really noticed the evenings getting darker the last couple of nights and lots of creepy crawlies appearing. Autumn is on its way! We have been trying to make the most of the remaining hols, spending time outside at the beach and in the garden whenever the weather is nice enough.

 
Thank you so much for all your lovely birthday messages on my last post. We are going to London for the day on Friday, as a birthday treat from Em. He has had it planned for months, but only recently let slip where we are actually going. I'm very excited, it'll be the most time we've spent together alone since before the kids I think!

My birthday today. We went to the beach early this morning, to a beach I hadn't been to before. The sea was so calm and there was just enough sand for building castles. A bit too much seaweed for my liking though!

We then drove out to some woods for a walk. We just made it back to the car before there where huge rumbles of thunder followed by the biggest rain drops. Elizabeth took a few leaves and bits home with her so she could draw them using her new crayons.

The rest of the afternoon was spent at home in the garden with a very large chocolate cake.
