AM & PM
It’s been a hot day today, even at 8am you could feel the heat. Nice day for a picnic, luckily for us that’s what we had planned. A trip over to see Grandad and Granny, it’s what we’d originally planned for last week but because of the forecast we rearranged for today, which also meant Vikki could now come. Zack has been awake quite early, which worked out well as it meant he’d be ready for a sleep on the drive over and could have slightly longer. We arrived at Shibden Hall, with Grandad not that far behind us. We found a nice shaded bench and set up our picnic, when we’d finished and all pleasantly full we had a walk and headed up the hill towards the house. We stopped about half way up and took shelter in the shadow of the trees, we sat, chatted and played for while. Grandad showing Zack how to roll down the hill, Zack just likes running down it and then getting one of us to chase him, which we took in turns. There was then a ride on lawnmower coming past and cutting the grass at the top of the hill, so we all walked up with Zack to have a look. After a while and before we all passed out in the heat, we walked back down through the wooded area down to the cafe for an ice cream. We again found a shaded area by some trees and all enjoyed our ice creams. However Zack wanted Vikki’s Colippo so she swapped with him, but as she doesn’t like chocolate ice cream I swapped my salted caramel with her. He did then swab back with Vikki and he tried some of the the chocolate one I now had. We played for a while longer here, before it was time to head home. I don’t know if it was the heat, chasing Zack or both but I think by the end of the day we were all shattered. Zack had his tea not long after we got home, Vikki and I had ours once he was in bed.
