Alton Towers

In the Easter Holidays we all went away for a few days to visit Alton Towers. First we went to the Water Park, which was great fun with water rides, lazy rivers and lots of things to turn and splash.

At Alton Towers the family mainly split in two with Daddy and Lucy going on the scary rollercoasters, while Hannah and Katie went on all the sedate (if a bit dull) rides, lucky Mummy !! Matin on Oblivion, he is the one on the far right hand side with his arms in the air. Hopefully the clip below works, although it was taken on my mobile phone !!

Legoland

Our first trip out to Legoland in the Easter holidays was with Grandma and Charlotte. We all had a lovely day.

Easter

Ok, so it's now May but hey it's better late than never.

On Easter Sunday the Easter bunny leaves a treasure hunt for the girls with clues to the final treasure. Lots of fun was has by all as always.

We then spent a lovely day at home mainly enjoying the lovely weather in the garden.

Daddy's Day Out

On a sunny March day Martin and James had a fun day out with a driving experience. The whole family went to watch them drive the cars and also watch the other cars driving around the tracks.

Firstly the were driven around in a Mini Cooper S to show them the track

Hannah's Parties

A little delayed but hey who cares !! So on Mothers Day Hannah had her birthday party with her friends at Whoosh. The had a great time playing on the soft play, then had lunch and a disco. Lots of fun was had by all. Then the family came round for tea to celebrate Mothers Day and Hannah's Birthday so lots more presents !!!

Hannah's Birthday

Yes it was my baby girl's 5th Birthday yesterday. We had a lovely morning opening all our exciting presents from Mummy and Daddy, and many of them went to school to be shown to our friends. Then just as much jumping up and down with excitement was after school when we found out that Mummy had changed Hannah's bedroom into a Disney Princess room so our new Cinderella dress from Auntie Val was then put on. More excitement to follow this weekend with a party with school friends on Sunday at Whoosh play centre and followed by tea with all the family.

World Book Day

Yet again we had to dress up as a character from a book to celebrate the end of Book Week. The kids had a great day finishing with a parade at the end of the day. Mummy on the other hand felt a total wally as she drove to school in her costume.

I was most impressed by my first attempt at face painting !!

Hannah went as Holly the Christmas Fairy

Katie went as Patch from 101 dalmatians

Lucy was the tiger who came to tea

And Mummy was a pirate from Peter Pan as the other staff in the preschool came as Peter Pan and Tinkerbell
