What a morning, we had a look at all the different ingredients that went into making bread hedgehog rolls 🦔 we watched the dough grow as it done its 1st prove, we had a play outside in between the hail & rainbows 🌈 then back to thump & bash the dough again, pull into hedgehog shapes and snip little spiky spikes, then had to wait again for the second prove .. patience's was definitely needed for this bake 🙈 but well worth it 🦔🦔🦔🦔

Ok we've not had Halloween yet, and then there's fireworks night too, we love them all ... but Bookings open next week, weekends sell out really quickly 🎅 Santa Paws will be returning too 🐾 so I need to see if I can convince Mick & Hayden that Riley needs to go 😂 .. but I'll be back working with Santa from November 22nd ❤️ I've had a peek at the plans and it looks magical already, the team of elves that are working so hard to get this years journey to see Santa, are truly amazing ❤️

I was sat in the garden watching and cheering on each child, as they took turns in a game they have made up, they told each other who's turn it was to pass the ball to someone else, who has to kick it, and who's turn it was to sit and cheer the players on ❤️ they played this for far longer than most of the activities I make up 😂 I sat there and took moment to just enjoy my job, school holidays started today, and I'm so glad I work the extra day, as much as I really can't wait for the summer break 😉 I know I will miss them all .... that's it for us until September 2nd and we move into the 'Ber' months and the sun will probably return too 😉!!

Have a brilliant summer 🍹
