A sociable weekend

A few pics from the weekend, all spent with good friends in glorious sunshine...yippee!

Spent yesterday with Lisa, Megan and Lauren in the morning then we all went to Seiont to meet Marion, Grace and Alex in the afternoon for ice cream, playing on the park and coffee. The kids played so well together. For the most part, Sonny, as usual, shunned the option of boy-of-his-own-age (Alex) to play with and went for the big boys on the campsite. Found them playing planets in the willow stand; some big kid was the sun, Anya was Mars, Sonny was Pluto etc... the game smelt distinctly of Anya but they were all very happy running around this boy at varying speeds depending on whether Anya thought their orbits were fast enough!

Today was spent with Tamsin and Mabli, or Mabsin as Sonny calls them both. I've never has friends with a collective name before! Had a lovely picnic in the sun by the lagoons, then a bike ride and an ice cream trip. Was really nice to see them, they both (but especially Anya) really appreciate spending time with Mabli, she's just like a big sister to them. It's also so nice that they are now of the age where Tam and I can sit and talk and eat while they all play - they're getting very good at tree climbing and the lagoons it just the perfect place to do it as the trees, for some reason, all have really good low branches so the kids can get started. Few pics below, all from today as I was camera and phone-less yesterday...

Big cuddles...

Poor Mabli had to do lots of these!

I love this picture.

Sonny emerged from his dressing gown this morning (it was his chrysalis) and turned into a butterfly, hence the wings - which he wore all day - and got very cross with random strangers who asked if he was a fairy!
