Well, it's no secret that I've been going through some issues lately and so when Lil Sis invited me to stay at their place this weekend, I jumped at the chance.
The weather over here has been incredible. High 20's C, which is high 70's F, (I'm so good doing the conversion for you!). I packed a bag, grabbed MTWD and headed off Saturday midday right after the Lil P's had gone to their Dad. I played Neil Diamond CD's the entire way and sang VERY loudly! MTWD doesn't mind my singing. Just being in the car, with the air-conditioning on, favourite tunes and singing was enough to make me feel better.
When I arrived The LN's were a little cross with me as I hadn't bought their cousins but they soon got over that and by this afternoon I was sitting in their paddling pool with them playing splashing games and generally acting like any other 4 year old!
Lil Sis's house from the back, the Wisteria and Dwarf Lilac are blooming and it's so beautiful!
We sunbathed, barbecued, drank wine and sat outside all evening way after dark. (The smell of barbecued chicken is my favourite in the entire world!) It felt like proper Summer! This was just what I needed and I feel so relaxed. I always feel like I've had a holiday when I go to stay with Lil Sis and Himself and this time, with the glorious weather, it really did feel like I was in Spain or somewhere non-English. Let's hope we can keep this for a bit longer, I know it will help to keep my spirits up.

I love this shot of the Lil Fella! He looks a little alarmed about something, doesn't he? He has grown so much! As you can see I'm working on my glow-in-the-dark white skin. So far so good, no sunburn!

Look at those thighs! Couldn't you just eat him up?!
I do hope you all had good weekends, I'm going to spend the next hour trying to get through my Google Reader, I only go away for 1 night and the thing explodes! Give me a chance to catch up before you write anything else please!

Last I heard, cannibalism was frowned upon in Britain. Maybe times have changed, but you may want to look into it before you continue down this current route.
Kevin - there is a little known bi-law that says it is absolutely allowed if it involves a doting Aunty and her edible nephews. I bet you didn't know that huh? ;o)
What a pretty house and garden they have! Looks so relaxing.
