Our Last Summer Picnic

We had our last picnic of the summer just ten minutes drive from home at the beautiful Gortletteragh Waterfall. 

I have really loved being at home during the summer holidays with the children and having our little days out. 

After the older two had a lie in we packed our picnic of sandwiches and juice before we set off. On the way there we decided to stop off at the village cafe for some homemade chips to have with the rest of our food - not very healthy I know but totally delicious and well worth the stop.

After eating we did some exploring. 
Our Little Fella loves being outdoors and being pushed about in his buggy. When we were climbing up to the viewing point though I must confess I put him in the sling because I wasn't feeling fit enough to push him up the steep hill.

There is lots to see here, we couldn't resist throwing in a few pennies to make a wish in the Wishing Well and our Teen and Inbetweener took a great interest in the Murder Hole and Priest's Rock which date back to medieval times.

We had a great time just chatting, eating and laughing. The best things in life really are for free.
 It is such a lovely quite place to spend an afternoon and it's days like these that you just don't want to end.

Photo of the Week


It's the weekend and I'm really looking forward to it. 

We are celebrating two very special birthdays this weekend as my aunt and godmother turns 60 and my mother in law turns 70.

Tomorrow our Teen and myself are having afternoon tea at the beautiful Castlemurray Hotel with my auntie and some family and friends, a girl only afternoon.

I do love a good afternoon tea, what a great way to spoil ourselves on a Saturday afternoon.

My husband is taking the boys to watch some football and spend some time with them.

Then on Sunday we are having dinner with my husband's family to celebrate his mum's birthday.

The weather here has been totally amazing all week and today the tar on the road was completely melted. 

It feels like we are on holiday. 

We have been out and about during the week making the most of this beautiful sunshine and I have a few posts to finish about those days but in the meantime this photo was taken on Monday with my favourite people at a little picnic area and waterfall not far from our home.

I hope your weekend is great whatever you are doing xxx
