Every year I seem to pack the whole kitchen sink but not this year. I realised there is just no need, when you can pre-order your picnic hampers and cheese hampers and visit the pop up bars along with the free water truck. The best feeling is when its time to leave there is nothing to carry back to the car other than the pram and kids.
This year I was more involved in the kids activities on the day as Roo is at an age where he wants to participate now, which meant the Captain and I spent time lining up for balloons and giant bubbles as well as attending the other (many!) activities for kids. Mum even managed to take some photos for us, an added bonus and we even have our heads in all the shots.
The only stress of the day was in the morning trying to find an adequate nursing friendly outfit that still fitted and a pair of shoes comfortable for my broken toe.
I’m looking forward to so much more summer fun and joie de vivre, so if you know of any more events that are family friendly, I would love to know about it!
