Bank holiday week! Very busy!

Bank holiday Monday saw me driving to wales with Martha, it was a miserable day and the sort of weather I hate driving in, oh well nevermind, I took it steady and both Martha and I arrived in one piece! That Monday was fairly quite and was spent planning out the week.
Tuesday saw Martha, my Mum and Dad and myself going down West (Wales) to visit my Gran, it was a lovely day and we spent most of the afternoon in the conservatory. We also spent a bit if time in my grans garden, its huge and it makes Liam extremely jealous every time he sees it, luckily he wasn't there this time. I know that one day both Liam and I want to move somewhere that has a fairly big garden, somewhere we can grow our fruit and veg and also where there is space for Martha to run around.
Wednesday saw Martha and myself head West again, this time we saw my friend Nic and her little boy Jac. When I arrived Nic had to pop out and get some milk so it was me, Martha and Jac. It really put into perspective how difficult twins must be, at one point I had both children on my knees and wasn't sure how I was ever going to move, especially when they seemed to be setting each other off. Anyway Nic came back soon enough and my crisis was over! We had a lovely afternoon and a good catch up.
Thursday was a bit more relaxed and I think it was good for Martha as she had a cold and needed the break from travelling. I also woke up that day with a very sore throat and needed to take it easy.
Friday was spent getting sorted for Saturday, first we went to Swansea, I had some bits I wanted to go back and Mam needed a few things. We then ended up in tescos getting food for Saturdays do.
Anna had been around most of the day and had spent the day with my Dad looking at bathrooms as she is looking to getting a new one.
Friday night Liam and David came down and it was really nice to see Liam after a week away. It was nice to see David too of course.
Saturday morning Liam and I went to view a couple of houses in Pembrey, not sure whether this was a stupid thing to do or not but we did it anyway and fell in love with one house, unfortunately when it came down to looking at figures etc it ended up being a little out of our league.
Anyway onto the exciting bit, back in December it was my Dads 65th birthday and in Jan it was my 30th and both my Dad and I had decided we wanted to celebrate with our family. However when it came to it back in Jan, Martha was stil very small and we just had a low key meal with immediate family and said we would have a bbq in the summer, well summer is here so thats what we did- well almost.
We decided that a bbq would mean someone cooking all day so though better of it and just had a buffet. We had nearly all my dads side of the family and then quite a few of my mums side. The weather was dry which meant people could sit outside, it wasn't too hot either which was nice. It was really good to see everyone and catch up with everyones news. Also a big thank you to those of you that made it, it was a truly lovely day.
So Sunday was time to come back to London and we had a nice packed car with Liam, David, Sarah, myself and of course Martha and all her gear. The journey wasn't too bad and I wasn't as squashed as I thought I would be, not something to do very often though I must say but once in awhile is fine.
Well feels like I have written an essay rather than just some short news so will leave it at that for now and catch up later with last weeks news and some pics too.
