What a busy couple of weeks we’ve had!
First week of June we went to the music man on Tuesday, on Wednesday we had a day at home where we played, baked and enjoyed songs. On Thursday we went to Drakes Den and had a lovely time challenging our physical abilities!

I had a day of work today and how lovely it’s been getting to know these two little puddings today 🥰 we had a morning of naps and playtime at home before lunch and then we headed off to to pick some beautiful strawberries 🍓
Have a lovely rest of your weekend and enjoy the sunshine 💚☀️

We had a lovely relaxed day on Thursday of pottering around at home playing in the lounge and garden. We also popped out to Endsleigh garden centre where we explored the jungle of house plants (it was incredibly hard to resist buying yet another one or two!!), we also had a wander through the aquarium area and then we bought some crickets for Dottie 🥰💚

Today was a first for Coombe View 💚☀️ We trekked up to Crazywell Pool where we enjoyed a picnic lunch, a splash (or in Rosie’s case a swim) and spotting lots of beautiful wildlife! I’m so incredibly proud of my little puddings for how well they walked! Once home, we enjoyed an ice cream/ ice lolly to cool off before it was home time ☀️

What an absolutely beautiful day we had! We ventured down to Mevagissey and had a beautiful boat tour on the Sea Scan…. Unfortunately we didn’t see any dolphins (Booooo!) but we did spot lots of jellyfish, seals, beautiful birds and it was great to see the fisherman hard at work (and maybe the cheeky birds trying to pinch some of their catch!). We then had a little play on the sandy beach to cool off a little before getting some chips and having a picnic in the shade. We got home quite late, but enjoyed an ice pole to help cool us down too then!

And another glorious day today! We started off with a morning of play at home before we then headed out to Radford park to feed the ducks. We were very lucky to have found some swans and their little cygnets 🦢, lots of geese and lots of ducks! We enjoyed play on the grass, chasing and popping bubbles, playing and then we had a picnic lunch 💚☀️
Have a lovely weekend everyone! X
