Last week was just shit from the word go and it got to the point where I literally didn't want to get out of bed because I was so miserable.
BUT, yesterday was one of my best friends, Paige's 18th birthday. Luckily it was bea-u-tiful weather, so we all road-tripped to our local country park and spent the day sleeping in the sunshine [I have some pretty horrendous tan lines as you can imagine >], getting a little too competitive at rounders, wondering around a market, climbing trees and the boys terrorising geese.
Honestly, it was one of the best days I've had in a long time and there's something so simple but cool about sitting in a field in the sunshine that'll make everything feel a whole load better.
I've actually been to this country-park for a festival back in 2012 and I honestly had no idea how beautiful it was. It was enormous and there were so many different things to look at and see.
Half of us stayed and slept in the sun and half of us came to explore the little market area, it had a second hand bookshop which caused the boys much amusement when they found a copy of '50 Shades of Grey' [mature bunch of 18 yr olds], then they weren't too sure if they were happy about touching it considering it was second hand...then we found some stables, no horses just straw.
We also had a look at the massive house in the centre of the grounds and spoke to some lovely old people about the weather...great stuff.
Honestly, I can't think of a better way to spend a sunny Sunday. Sometimes its good to get out of towns/cities and just go back to nature.
So, happy 18th Paige! Thanks for a lovely day x x
