Happy Anniversary

Today is our wedding anniversary and it's been a lovely day.

Adam and Imogen gave us cards and bought me a lovely bouquet of flowers and Andy a box of beers... we were both equally thrilled with our presents, but I think mine will last much longer  :)

We sat on the patio last night with lots of candles flickering and stars twinkling (there were a lot of stars visible last night, and Andy nearly went in to fetch his telescope) and toasted our wedding anniversary. It was so nice to be able to sit outside even though it was gone midnight, though I did end up nipping in to fetch my throw to wrap over my shoulders. It's made us look forward even more to the conservatory being finished and being able to sit with the doors open enjoying the fresh air.

As the sun was shining we decided to jump in the car and head to the beach again (it only takes 20 to 25 minutes depending on traffic). We had chips for lunch and sat on the sand soaking up the sun as Imogen had a fantastic time playing in the sea.


Look at those waves, I'd have loved to get in there with her and jump them!



I just managed to catch this picture!


After a lovely time on the beach, we went up to the paddling pool and had Imogen had a paddle and we all had drinks and ice creams before heading off to the park.








Then home for a lovely tea followed by a few games of trumps (I taught Imogen yesterday how to play) with smarties as prizes for the winners.

Brilliant day!

Take care
