Enjoying the free things in life.

Engrossed in the piglets :)

Today Triston finally had a day off, so we took advantage of the nice weather and went out for the day.

Our first stop was the community farm. It's just across the fields by us so we took the pram, put on our wellies and ventured through the long grass.

The community farm is exactly that- run by the community. It is free to enter and is home to donkeys, pigs, sheep, cows, goats, chickens, bees, ferrets and lots of wildlife! 

Alyssa loved seeing the different animals and telling us all the animal noises!

We then walked down to the river and park. There's a nature trail through the woods which sits next to the river, and we spotted lots of fish, insects and giant dragonflies. We spent what felt like hours standing on the viewing platform looking at the bugs and insects surrounding the river. 

The park was our next stop and I took advantage of having no baby bump by sitting on the swings and playing with Alyssa! It felt so good to be able to do things with her again, whilst her baby sister slept in the pram beside us! (She was asleep for the whole trip- apparently farm animals bore her!)

Together we ate our picnic and watched the dog walkers go by.. it was so peaceful and calm, perfect after a hectic week of not having Triston home.

Sometimes in life, we pay for things.. extortionate things like days out to theme parks, cinema

s and soft play areas.. when in reality there are plenty of free things to do that are just as fun in the local community.

Overall it was a fantastic day, another day of memories made. Another day of positivity.

That's all for now, Tamar xox
