Hola my sweeties! How is your weekend going? Ours is going very well. Which really translates into we have absolutely zero going on, and I'm just relaxing right now. As much as I love our busy weekends, I really love our semi-lazy, lay-around-the-house ones. I'm catching up on my stack of unread magazines. We have played some Uno with the kids. There's been some frisbee games. It's been great fun.
The other day though, Brian had the day off (while the kids were at school - yay!!) so we took the opportunity to go do some local sightseeing. And by local, I mean like 5 minutes down the road. Lol! We wanted to go grab lunch at a (new to us) pub, but didn't realize we got there like an hour before it opened so we started walking around. It was awesome. We found ducks!!
Aren't they soooo cute!! I really wish I could upload the videos I got, but they're too long. But we did get a couple videos of the babies. After staring at them for probably way longer than necessary we decided to go walk around the Ely Cathedral. (You may remember it from my Facebook days - I had a few pictures of it on there.) We've walked by it probably a dozen or so times but never gone inside. Now was our opportunity!!
It was AMAZING!! I think next time, when the kids are with us, we're going to do the whole tour. I can't wait!
The stained glass windows were gorgeous!! There's a stained glass window museum up in one of the towers that I really want to go in next time we're there. I just know the girls are going to love it as much as I do.
And after we left, on our way to the pub, I found a few more buildings that I thought were kind of awesome. I know I've said it before, but I love (like really love) how old everything is here - how much history there is. I can't get over it.
So that was pretty much our day. We're planning some more trips that I am uber excited about!! Like out to Stonehenge, and Bath. Plus, we found this place about an hour north of us that's a forest...but it's a park...I'm not sure how to describe it. It looks really awesome from the pictures though.
So anyway, I hope your weekend is going well. And that you are getting some relaxing time in too! I suppose (since it's after 5) I should go make my family some dinner though.
Much love! <3
