Church & Park

The weather is certainly getting much warmer and I am kinda hoping it will stay that way through to the summer. We did not make it to church at all last month because of the weather with walking and no car. The boys were so excited to be back in bible class. So much so that Ronan wanted to take his brother to his class. I still escorted them to their right places to make sure they got where they were supposed to go. The singing was incredible again this morning and something I definitely missed. Just wish that Ryan did not have to work on Sunday mornings so I had someone to sit with in service. Afterwards the boys and I got some fresh bread and yogurt from the store for a morning snack and headed to the park in town for them to play. The love going to this park and with the sun out and the rain and mud kept at bay, we were able to stay quite a while. Here are some of the photographs taken this morning and I have to say I really do not miss taking horrid shots on my old iPhone.

Stained glass windows, stone arches, and the high ceiling beams at church. <3

Love the historical buildings in Lindfield.

The boys have the week off from school do to half term. I took a holiday from work today to watch the boys so we headed to the park. They had fun playing and then we headed back through the trail for lunch at home.

Maddox loved the yellow gold on the tree; his favourite colour!

Namaste.

Ready to play tag?

Hes got a very strong faith. He’s praying for a baby sister at this moment.

We figured out that the boys and I can play FIFA Football on Xbox with all three of us at one time. So we had some fun playing Napoli vs. Arsenal.

When Maddox and I got to school today, I found out I was in for a treat. They set up a class store and Maddox was playing the store owner. I got to choose items to ‘buy’ and let Maddox work out the change. It was really cute and we had fun doing the role play activity.

After getting to school I get to buy things from Maddox as he practices with money. So cute.

Football in the Park (and the rain!

It is just the boys and I for the rest of the week while Ryan is away on a trip with his classmates. Despite not having their dad here, I aim to keep life fun. Even though England is giving us some pretty miserable weather, I took the boys to the park straight from school. I did not really plan on the mud and right away we were all slipping and slidding. Or to be fair, I was the one slipping and almost biting it hard in the mud. To add to the theatrics, the boys afterwards were ready to take aim at my backside with the muddy football. It was lots of laughter and smiles and we had a whole bunch of fun.

I took the boys to the park after school to play football.

It was wet and muddy but we had quite a bit of fun never the less.

The rain really started to come down but frowns were nowhere in sight.

After homework we watched TRON from the 80’s with dinner.

Keeping the diet Ryan cooks we had Salmon for our meal.

Indiana Jones Birthday Party

Leave a reply

Today was the much awaited birthday party for my newly seven year old, Ronan. He loves Indiana Jones. We went to a leisure centre for his birthday party and all the kids got to play in the soft play area which had two stories. Afterwards we had an english tea with a lot of canapes and treats. At the parties in England you light the cake, but send pieces home instead with the guests. You also do not open presents until you get home. The boys had a great time!
