Summertime Reasons to be Cheerful #R2BC

Time just seems to have been escaping me recently. The easing of lockdown has meant that the centre where I live is slowly re-opening and this means I've been busy helping my husband get things ready and also doing the social media. Add that to my regular work, looking after the house and trying to keep the kids interested in their education and I've been a busy girl. Here is my home looking really beautiful as I drove back in at sunset the other day -


I've had some great walks out in our grounds with my kids over the last few months. Sunset is a popular time, once dinner and tidying up is done, we head off and wander. The girls go on the swing, they teach me tik tok dances and they laugh at me, it's bliss!



We even had the cat accompany us one night, following us the whole way around one fo the lakes. The girls want to get him a collar and lead but I don't think he'll like that.


I only really noticed how busy I've been when I was looking at my blog and realised I hadn't posted an #R2BC post for ages. 12th June was my last one, so it seems as if I am managing one a month right now. There hasn't been anything majorly interesting going on, but I've been enjoying at least one day out each week to a National Trust site with my husband.  We're making sure our membership pays for itself. 

We feed the deer at Knole House in Sevenoaks -


We picnicked with all the kids at Ightham Moat in Kent -


We walked the Seven Sisters with some friends who live in our community with us -


My hubby and I explored the wider estate at Scotney Castle -


JJ and I had a good long walk in the area surrounding Bodiam Castle, and enjoyed a coffee and feeding the ducks there.


I also had a first go at making elderflower cordial with Miss E. We did a really good job if I do say so myself!


So, amongst the busyness of everyday life and working, there has been plenty of great things to be grateful for. Thank you Jesus.
