During the August Bank Holiday weekend, Gramps and Nanny Helen took us all to Crealy near Wadebridge. We hadn’t been there for ages and this was the first time the boys had been. They both enjoyed it very much and went on several rides and played on lots of climbing frames and soft play areas. The weather was a bit chilly and cloudy but it wasn’t too bad. Surprisingly, it wasn’t very busy at all, but that was good as we could get on the rides fairly quickly, apart from the new rollercoaster, which took ages get on! We all had a lovely day!

Here are some pics of Aaron.

Aaron’s 2nd birthday didn’t quite go to plan unfortunately! Ben managed to get Chicken Pox at the time so our plan of going to Pennywell Farm on the day before his actual party was cancelled as we couldn’t take Ben anywhere. At this point, Aaron didn’t have Chicken Pox either so it was a bit of a shame really.

On his actual birthday, which was a Saturday, we had planned to have family over and to do a BBQ. But due to Ben being ill, not everyone came in fear of catching it as well or passing it on to those who had never had it, although some people did still come and we still did a BBQ.

We were up a good time that day and went down to the front room which was all decked out in birthday banners, birthday balloons and presents for Aaron. He was very excited to say the least, and Ben was also very excited! We gave him a new garage set, a pack of cars, clothes, a wooden jigsaw and a couple of other things. He is obsessed with cars so he loved those, and I had to put the 3 level garage together straight away! He also opened the cards that had arrived for him but he was more interested in the toys!! 😉

Just after 12pm, family members started to arrive and give the little man their presents for him. He had lots of other things such as a couple of electronic Dinosaurs that talk to each other, books and games, remote controlled car, clothes, a car track mat for their bedroom and some money. At this point he didn’t know what to play with first and didn’t really eat anything much all day apart from biscuits as he was too busy playing!

All in all it was a good day, but it was a shame not everyone could come due to Ben being ill.  The BBQ was good as well, as the boys always enjoy a BBQ, and Gramps got sunburnt even though he was wearing a jumper! Aaron had lots of nice presents and cards so thank you to everyone that gave him something! 😉

Here are some photographs from his birthday.  We still can’t believe he is 2 already!!
