Easter Weekend

Sam and I have had a fun weekend - however for me it started earlier as Wednesday was my day off and I took Thursday as holiday. This meant the house was tidy ready for Good Friday when Sam started her break.
We went to Denne Country Stores in Soulbury to by some dog and rabbit food and then popped to Costco to stock up on a few bits and pieces (mainly olives and toilet rolls - the essentials)!
When we drove past Tesco earlier in the day cars were queuing to get in so we decided to go shopping much later in the evening. That was a good move - it was very quiet and hassle free!

On Saturday we have a lazy morning with breakfast in bed. We then have a nice chat with Vickie and Jerry on Skype.
In the afternoon we take the dogs for a long walk up on Warden Hills. It was a lovely sunny day, a bit chilly but it was great to be out in the fresh air. The snow from last week had all melted at the foot of the hills - but on the top it came up to Sam's knee in places. The dogs had a great time running through it.

On Sunday morning Sam took Pixel for a walk with Kate and Harry. They had a good time and Pixel was very good about coming back. I took Casey out on her gentle leader for the first time - she walked really nicely on it.

Charlotte came over for Sunday dinner - roast beef and all the trimmings. Sam and I watched a film together in the evening.

On Bank Holiday Monday we had another lazy morning then took the dogs out again for a long walk - this time on Blows Downs. They had a fantastic time and were both very well behaved. Sam and I enjoyed it too. 

In the afternoon Sam and I went to visit Mum and Dad. Mum had made some delicious cheese nibbles and a lovely chocolate cake with a coffee filling. We had a nice chat and Sam sorted out Dad's computer and updated his satnav.
We spent the evening at home together, cosied up as it had turned chilly.
