Despite the fact we’re almost at the end of half term already I’m not going to write about what we got up to this week in this post – I’m going to save that for my next one… Instead this week’s photos are from my birthday on Saturday.

We had a busy week at school last week. Luckily the rain held off for Sports Day on Thursday and then our Jubilee celebrations on Friday. I think this might be the first year since the boys have had sports days that I’ve not used photos of them competing for my Living Arrows post, but as I now work at their school it was a bit tricky to take pictures this year!

It’s been a quiet week here. Barry and I have both had covid so other than dropping the boys at the school gate and picking them up at the end of the day we haven’t been anywhere or done anything! Thankfully Toby and Gabe seem to have avoided catching it again after they had it at Christmas and hopefully that’ll be it for us for a while now at least!

If you read last week’s post you’ll know we went away camping at the weekend. It wasn’t looking great when the rain started on Friday afternoon, and it was still raining when we packed the car and set off after tea. But by the time we arrived at our campsite at 7 pm the rain had stopped and we had a glorious weekend of sunshine and fun with friends.

It’s 11 o’clock on Thursday night, and I really should be in bed, but I just realised I hadn’t written this post yet and we’re going away camping this weekend. If I don’t write this now it’s not going to get done… so here we are!

I’m back to my old ways this week, waiting until the end of the week to write my Living Arrows post. I actually took these pictures last week but then never got round to posting them!

After our stay in Yorkshire in the first week of our Easter holiday the second week was a bit more chilled. We had a few pyjama days at home as well as a couple of days out. Sometimes the school holidays seem to fly by but it actually feels like we’ve had a decent break this time, and it helps to know we’ve got a few four day weeks coming up in the next half term too!

If you read last week’s post, you’ll know we were on holiday in Yorkshire last week. We got back on Friday ready for a busy weekend with Toby at a birthday party on Saturday and then the boys’ usual Street Monkeys yesterday.

This is just going to be a quick one from me as I try to get myself back on schedule. We’re away in Yorkshire at the moment, enjoying a bit of peace and quiet in the forest. On our way here yesterday though we decided to break up the journey with a stop at the National Science and Media Museum in Bradford.

Here I am, last minute as usual! I even took these photos last weekend but then just never got round to writing the post to go with them. Not much has happened in the last week though – we made it through the last week of term and now we’ve got a quite weekend before we go on holiday on Monday.
