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.
Happy Birthday Caroline! Sounds like you had a lovely day, especially the very large cake part! x

ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to you! I agree with Gillian, we had that still, muggy day here in Manchester too and the photos really do capture that. I love the one of your little girl on the hill with the big stick! Hope you had a happy day. Nick xx
