Holiday Fun









Sorry it's been so long since I last updated the blog but it is always manic at the end of term -as I'm sure loads of you can appreciate and my excuse is I have been very busy. Any way the summer holidays are at long last here and it looks like the weather has decided to cheer itself up a bit so we can all enjoy the sun.
Elizabeth has finished at nursery and is already very excited about going into reception in September. She is in Mrs Proctors class (1JP) and has already bought her lunch box.
Eren has finished her first year at York sixth form college and received her sports certificate today with her pass for the first part of her course-she's ready to go back now and do part two plus a child care course.
Maisy our little blonde bomb-shell is enjoying seeing and learning to do lots of new things and recently loved our trip to Filey beach. Elizabeth and her thoroughly enjoyed playing in the sea and digging in the sand. It was a lovely beach and we will certainly be going back. It is a lot like Weymouth's beach but slightly bigger waves and less people on the beach-so you actually have room to move!!!!(see pictures above).
Denise and myself are looking forward to our conservatory being started this summer holiday so by the Autumn we should be able to sit out in it and chill-whilst enjoying the garden. We have started to harvest our first produce from the garden in the form of gooseberries, lettuce, herbs,land cress and french beans-with more to come.
We have a long list of places we want to explore while on holiday this year-Filey beach being one of the first but weather permitting the Yorkshire Dales, Castle Howard, Fountains Abbey, Lotherton Hall, Rowntrees park and Sundown childrens park. Plus revisiting beaches we've previously been to. Also looking forward to some of you popping up to visit us.
