TWINKLE TWINKLE



If I could give you the stars, I'd gather them inside my heart,
I'd wrap them in love and brighten your day with starlight ..

My feet hurt ~ but boy did we have fun!!

Well ~ what a day we have had. There was a break in the wet weather, so we decided to make the most of it and head out to have some fun!! I will warn you now ~ there are lots of photos on this post (ha ha !!) ~ I am also still useless at uploading them in the right order ~ so I will apologise now that they are a bit muddled up!!

We have had such a fun day ~ packed full of laughter and great memories!! It was so nice to see my little stars laughing and just having a good time ~

We started off this afternoon on the pier ~ which is very long and my feet were already hurting from the walk there ~ that will teach me to forget my trainers!!!!

Here is lauren on the jumping jacks trampolines ~ she just bounced and bounced ~ I wish I had her energy!!

Daniel on the go kart track ~ he had several goes and it was a fight to get him off the things !!

My little sunshine ~ waiting to go on the hot air baloon ride!!
Yet more bouncing on the jumping jacks!

This time Dan joined in too!

Lauren on the hot air baloon ride ~ she loved it so much she had two goes!

More go kart racing for Daniel!!




Once we had finished on the pier ~ we headed off to the open top bus tours ~ and started our tour by looking at Conwy castle!!


This is where the tour starts ~ looking out over the beach front!! Most of the buildings long the front in this photo are hotels!!
A fishing boat in the bay!!

As you can see from the smile on her face ~ little miss Lauren just loved the wind in her hair on the open top bus!!



Scarey photo (ha ha ) ~ I quite liked the windy effect too!!
Daniel and Grandma seemed to be having a good time!!
The castle ~ AGAIN!!!!!




Daniel, Grandma and Lauren ~ waiting for the tour to start!!
me and my little stars!!
The view from the bus as we went past the beach!! You will notice the dark clouds in the distance ~ more rain to come I think!!
Lauren spotted this sea gull and took a photo ~ it was huge!!

Lauren took this one too ~ of the beach!!! We also had a portrait done while we were on the pier ~ it is one of the old western photos that they do ~ where you get all dressed up and they take it in sepia effect ~ we all looked like we were in the Old wild west (ha ha ). I will scan it into the computer when we get home ~ so you can all see!!!
I am in need of a long soak in the bath ~ and an early night I think ~ as all the walking and sea air has tired me out (I know ~ it is old age creeping up on me ha ha !!!).
The children don't seem to be bothered ~ while me and my Mum are sat here with our feet up ~ they are both out in the garden playing football!!! I don't know where they get the energy from!!
Tomorrow we have another busy day ~ we are going to see my sister and her family ~ hopefully if the weather improves a bit, the children will get to go on the beach. XXX

I love the picture of you and the kids: You look great and you appear to be having a blast!

Can't wait to see that Wild West picture! Kenneth and I have one of those too, taken at Portaventura in Spain when we were about 18-19 years old. I'll have to dig it up.

Love,
Tania
