Mum's visit

At the end of April we had a long anticipated visit of about 2 weeks by my Mum. The day after she arrived was beautiful and sunny so we decided to make the most of it and go out especially since it had been like winter back home for Mum and Dad. We went to Dartington Hall for a walk round the gardens then finished it off with hot chocolate and cake.
The second day of Mum’s holiday (if you can call it a holiday) was the Royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton. Maisie decided to wear her dress up wedding dress and wanted to arrange a Royal Wedding afternoon tea. Everyone was banished from the dining room while Maisie, with a little assistance from me, arranged the Royal Wedding tea. Paul woke up from his nightshift just in time for the tea but missed the wedding ……..hmm not sure if this was a coincidence.

We also managed to fit in some shopping with the occasional ice-cream and coconut ice pit stop.
