Our weekend . . .

Hiya all,

This weekend has been very different to the pass few weekends we have had, over the last few weekends we have spent the majority of our time in the house, painting decorating putting together flat pack furniture, going to IKEA and visiting family. Nothing that exciting really.

This weekend we went to the seaside!!

Living smack bang in the middle of the country in the West Midlands, one of the many downfalls about this is that we are the furthest away from the coast you can get! So after hearing that Sunday was going to be decent weather, we planned to make the 2.5hr trip to Llandudno.

All ready to leave!
At 6am, me Gareth Harry, and my Mom & Dad set off for the beach. Followed by my Sister her husband and my 2 nieces in there car.
 When we got there Gareth took harry onto the sand and then Dad too him to look for shells and the can across a huge jellyfish!
lovely views!
We met up with my sister and had a lovely day (even if there was ALOT of walking which resulted in alot of moaning from me!), We walked all along the pier and they went on a few rides ate ice cream, then Harry got to experience the beach and sea for the 1st time, they had a great time and me and Gareth went on a speed boat.

see the fear on my face!!





Harry was a little scared of the sea at 1st, but when he had his jelly shoes on he was fine, i don't think he liked the feeling of it under his feet.
on our way home
We didn't realise how strong the sun was and although we had sun cream on my mom and dad still ended up like this - Mr & Mrs Lobster!!

And here's Mr Tomato!!

Lets just say were all fighting for the bottle of aloe after sun!!

How was your weekend?

Love Lucy x
