Summer holidays part 2!

The summer holidays continued in much the same fashion.
We went to stay with my mum and dad for a few days. We were able to meet up with my cousin and her two children who were over from Australia. During the same visit we also met up with my aunt and another cousin and her children. It was great to get all the children together and this was the first time that all six were together! During the visit we also had a picnic with my godparents, one of their sons and his wife and new baby. The boys had lots of fun playing with all the men in the park and Douglas enjoyed climbing trees!
One of the days we surprised the boys with a visit to Legoland. They had a great day despite how busy the place was. It was a very long day! We followed this up with a trip to the Lego shop in Brighton. Wow I think was the most used word in the shop as they had lots of models up!
Another day trip out was to cattle country. That was a really good day too. The boys enjoyed playing on all the climbing equipment and in the play barns. They also had a great time in the paddling pool. We were glad that we had looked on line first so that we knew to take their trunks and towels. We also had a round of crazy golf and went on a canoe! Poor Harry had a bit of an accident though when he fell over on the big slide, giving himself a black eye and getting friction burn on his cheek and both hands! A quick go on the digger (£2 later for mummy and daddy) and the day ended on a happy note.
Finally it was time to get prepared for returning to school and getting up in the morning........
I hope everyone else had a good summer too.
