Welcome to my end of the week wrap up, Sunday Post hosted by Caffeinated Book Reviewer and Sunday Salon hosted by Deb at Readerbuzz!
It has been a busy week this week trying to fit in my normal posts, my end of the month bits and pieces and being out and about for the school holidays!
This week has consisted of shopping at various places, visiting a couple of National Trust properties and attending a Duck Race.
In terms of reading, I did manage to get a couple of short books read towards the end of the week whilst my eldest son went to soft play and my 10 month old caught up on his nap time!

I can see from your photos and your list of blog posts that this has been a busy week for you. Those outdoor photos are beautiful.
Love in Provence would be a good book to look for during Paris in July, I think.

So busy! Thank you. The camera on my phone is pretty good.
Of course! I don’t know if I will have enough time to do Paris in July this year, unless I can find some really short books 😂

Is a Duck Race really ducks racing, or something else? 🙂 Your photos are lovely. What beautiful places to visit!

It is little plastic ducks along a stream. The ducks have numbers on and people buy a number. I just watch 😂
Thank you. We are very lucky where we live

It sounds like you had a busy week, Emily. Was the Duck Race fun? I am glad you were able to get in some reading time. Have a great week!

It was. It was good but we got there at the time when they were having a break so it took ages for the race to happen. There are a number of races then the winners from them race against each other. When I say race it’s just luck. If your plastic duck hits the right current then you are in luck!
Thank you. You too 😊

How awesome you have a 10 month old. They are sweet and learning, wanting to get places and into more. I’d like to do the napping but I’ve never been good at that.

😊 he is certainly curious. He watches his brother all the time (who is 5 years old).
I have to literally fall asleep otherwise I will feel worse after the nap than before!
