365/148 Unfinished.

Unfinished.... is what my blog about this weekend is, but I'll give you a potted history now and put that right.

Friday we went out on the boat, hung around St Michael's Mount as it was a bit 'lumpy', but it was sunny and we had a few laughs, spent time together and best of all it was still not the weekend!

The girls had things to do so I left with them after a cream tea on the Mount and we battled a brisk wind across the causeway,while the lads waited on the tide and caught a few mackeral while waiting to moor the boat back up.


 Saturday Lisa and family came by for Zac's last,(Yes really the last) leaving 'do' so we enjoyed the girls in the garden (paddling pool and sand always help) and had some barbecue... and this week Lyla decided that walking is an option after being a prolific crawler..
Walking : age 14 & half months


Oh, what did we do before we had the big deck..?
Zac left this morning, sporting a hangover from a late night in 'Sound' with college friends, but putting on a brave face. He flies this evening to Sydney via Singapore but by all accounts the plane is only half full and there's plenty of space to rest up ahead of getting to the ship Wednesday.. the only thing is what to do with a day in Sydney when he and his pal arrive.. oh, such difficult decisions..x

Life is so normal when he's here, but the void just one person leaves in your house is palpable.. everyone feels it but we don't really discuss it.. and hey, 12 weeks til he is home is 3rd September.. so enjoy the summer everyone, it is shortlived !!
(but hey, with his and my birthday, sounds like another excuse for a party..!)

  1. What a great weekend. Yay for Lyla (pretty name) getting up and at it. Chasing toddlers round, there is nothing quite like it!

    Sad about Zac going, obviously brilliant for him though, what luck that the flight is quiet.

I am hoping that 'Anonymous' has stopped stalking me with his Spam now, but may have to put verification back on if it comes back.. I just can't buy any more over the counter drugs or Louis V handbags girls!! ;-)
