Centre Parcs & Snowy Days

Hi Guys,

It's been a little while since I posted but I just wanted to update on a lovely little break we had last weekend at Centre Parcs.

Amy had a non-pupil day booked for Mon 2nd Feb so we thought we would take the opportunity to book a long weekend at Centre Parcs in Elvedon.

Auntie Ally came with us and we had a wonderful time. Ben really enjoyed it - this being the first time he was old enough to fully appreciate Centre Parcs.

We had an action packed weekend...

The kids did pony trekking, roller skating, arts & crafts & lots of swimming.

Amy enjoyed sampling hot chocolates in every food establishment she entered and I think the one with the Flake melted into it in the "country club" was her favourite.


Jointly, I think the kids enjoyed the swimming the most - Ben especially loved the Lazy River. Or "my river" as he called it and he got very cross if anyone else tried to swim in it!!


Or perhaps the highlight of the trip for Ben was the full-sized Henry hoover in the Villa - he was completely made up about it.


On Sunday afternoon the predicted snow descended and it made everything look picture perfect.





When we got home around lunchtime on Monday the whole street seemed to be out playing in the snow so we all joined in and had a lovely afternoon.




... In other news.....

It's about time I mentioned my charity weight loss challenge on here. I have pledged to lose 3 stone in 2009 and am trying to raise money for The Moebius Research Trust on the way. If I can get it to work I'll add my weight loss ticker onto here for all to keep track of my progress but if anyone feels compelled to sponsor me then please click here.
