On Friday evening, we hit the M1 and M6 towards Sarah, Rob and Lucy in Shropshire. We're getting quite good at this weekend travel lark, and we almost got Euan into the cot at Sarah & Rob's house without him waking Lucy. Tim had to dive into a nearby room so that Lucy wouldn't come stumbling out of her bedroom, bleary-eyed, to find a strange man standing in the hallway!
We had another fantastic weekend, especially seeing it had been so long since we'd met up with any of the Court family. A new addition to their family is due in October, and Lucy is growing up fast. She's a really articulate 2-yr-old, and polite, and loves a good story!
We took a trip to Attingham Park, Euan jumped into the rucksack and we walked through the woods and the walled gardens and played on the swings before heading to the courtyard for a packed lunch and a coffee. On Sunday morning, we exhausted Euan and Lucy (and Tim) in the Play Barn before having lunch at a the Battlefield 1403 farm shop and hitting the road for Harpenden.
... So thank goodness for Bank Holiday Mondays! The 3 of us popped off to the Stockwood Discovery Centre, just round the corner, for lunch and a wander round the gardens (it's freeee!) before an afternoon's recuperation and some preparations for the big wedding weekend. A 3 day week, and then it's upon us!
