It’s been a fortnight of pure fun around here.
Not to be outdone, C(9) decided it was time to grab Mummy’s surfboard and hit the waves. (I have made it very clear that it is still my surfboard!)
We drove down to Wales to collect our new puppy…
Our older dog, Harvey, was a bit thrown when puppy left the breeder’s house with us.
C(9) is being a wonderful second time puppy-mummy. I hardly know we’ve got him which frees me up to lavish lots of fuss on Harvey, who in turn is shaping up to be a very good big brother.
And I celebrated a birthday…
Then a lovely dinner out and birthday cake at home with my gorgeous family.
It’s been a wonderful week. 🙂
Great post! Happy birthday…awesome family shots…it looks like a banner week in your home…lots of fun times!
be well and God bless!
Thanks, Chris. It was a wonderful week. God bless you too!
Aw, look at that sweet puppy! Water-skiing looks like so much fun! I’m not sure I would be brave (and coordinated) enough to try! LOL Beautiful dress!
Thank you!
Yes I’d love to try wakeboarding or waterskiing but I think I have to work on my upper body strength first!
What a wonderful time you’ve all been having, and Happy Birthday!
Thanks, Lucy 🙂
I hope you guys are all having a great summer too.
What a great birthday! You look wonderful. The puppy is so adorable.
Blessings, Dawn
Thank you so much, Dawn! You are very kind 🙂
Happy belated birthday! What an awesome fortnight! J(8) certainly looks like he’s having a great time on the wakeboard, and C(9) looks really professional on the surf board. And what an adorable new puppy! Harvey must be taking it all in in good stride. 🙂
Thank you Hwee! It has been a lovely few weeks 🙂
Happy birthday! What a beautiful new puppy 🙂
Thanks, Rebecca!
Happy birthday, my sweet bloggy friend. You look so beautiful in your birthday photos. I love the dress. A puppy and surfboarding, too…wow what a spectacular week.
Ahh thank you so much for your lovely birthday greeting, Phyllis – you are very sweet 🙂
I love your birthday hat, great pictures!
Thanks Ticia! It was a cool birthday hat, I thought!
Okay, ready for a very tuneless rendition of ‘happy birthday’? Here goes….’happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Lucinda’….and the great finale….’happy birthday to yooooooooouuu!!’
Cute puppy!
What do you mean? That was beautifully in tune! 😉 Thanks, Claire.
What a great couple of weeks! Happy Birthday!
They have been! Thank you 🙂
Happy birthday Lucinda! That sure is a beautiful birthday hat. You are a most fortunate mother! Looking so beautiful too.
Thank you so much, Sue! I am very blessed 🙂
Oh, sweet puppy tummies and puppy breath is the best! Looks like you had a very fun and happy birthday!
The puppy is super-cute 🙂
Ah, what a delightful collage! Happy belated birthday, Lucinda. Nice to know we’ve got another thing in common. We love surfing! Just got back from the famous surfing beaches of North Devon. Hope the rest of summer will be as wonderful for you. And thank you once again for sharing your ideas in this helpful blog.
Hi Elena! You leave the sweetest comments – thank you so much! I love that you like to surf too! We used to surf in North Devon, it’s beautiful there isn’t it? I hope the rest of your summer is wonderful too!
