wonderful weather

We have had some wonderful summery weather. 

It has been gorgeous with us for over a week now. BBQ weather as they say! MrG insisted on a BBQ on Saturday evening - he is a real meat-eater so a BBQ is his idea of heaven. It's lovely to sit in the garden to have our evening meal even when it's not a BBQ. It's like being on holiday!

Talking of holidays I have managed to book a holiday cottage for a week in the summer holidays. It was quite a struggle to find something this year as so many cottages are already fully booked until the end of September! I left it until the last minute because I wasn't sure whether we should book one this year because we are so busy and have to work around so many dates - MrG and I will celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary at the beginning of August (an amazing achievement but boy does it make us feel old!) so I wanted to keep that week free to try and organise a romantic break together, the A'level results are announced on 18th August and the GCSE results on 25th so the boys will have to go into school to collect them. 

We have 6 family birthdays in July including Little MissG's 14th birthday and we will return from our summer holiday on Ben's 19th! I don't feel old enough to have a 19 year old son or to be celebrating our Silver Wedding Anniversary!  This age thing just creeps up on you doesn't it?
