Sunshine & Ice Cream


We've had a beautiful weekend here in Derbyshire and we celebrated with a BBQ, a gorgeous walk in the Peak District, ice creams and pints of shandy, heaven!
Bertie had his very first swimming lesson too in the little stream below Burbage Edge. Very entertaining, I'm not sure if he likes water or not as he was a bit of a wimp after a few minutes.
But he's a very natural swimmer and I was bursting with pride when he took to the water for the first time on Sunday.
He was totally spoilt by the ice cream man with his very own free ice cream cone! Watching him tuck into this ice cream was one of the highlights of the year so far. He actually ate the whole thing! What a greedy boy.  Love this photo of him, which totally captured the moment.
