This weekend, inspired by Jen at My Mummy’s Pennies, and donned our Slugs and Snails (and 3 more layers!) and off we went to Delamere Forest to look for Gruffalos.
The boys LOVED squelching about in the mud…
…and Spud got stuck!
Before the cold got to us, we hid out in some dens then headed off to the cafe for cake. Perfect :)
Have you been anywhere fun this week and fancy sharing some photos? Just grab my badge and add your link to the comments and I’ll add it to the main body of this post
I’m linking up with Coombe Mill’s Country Kids linky this week too so please pop over and see who else has been enjoying the countryside.
And I might as well go all out and link up with Mummy Mishaps’ & Housewife of Suffolk County’s Flashback Friday (I know it’s Monday ;) ).
lots and lots of squelchy mud! the mud we found this weekend was rather more wet! Love the photos x
I’ve just seen the puddles on your walk! Less likely to get stuck but definitely wetter and messier. Love the pic of your dog going mad in the mud :) xxx
We have plenty of mud on the farm this week, hoping to clear it a little before half term or there will be some muddy bottoms on the slopes! Love the little dens too. Thank you for joining me on Country Kids
We had a couple of muddy bottoms this weekend :D I’ve been wanting to link up for ages so glad I did this week.
My wee man always gets covered in mud when we are out and about these day!
:D Wellies are THE best invention!
Mud’s fantastic, lovely squelchy noise! The den looks great fun and I love their suits!
Popping over from Flashback Friday
Hello! It did make the most delicious noise :)
My two adore mud too! The noise and the texture I guess makes it a wonderful source of fun and mess! Such a simple pleasure too.
Thanks for linking up – Mondays are a fine x
Lovely Linky idea. I will try and make an effort to put myself in the picture! x
Definitely do, I’m really enjoying it and will be so glad I did when the boys are older x
Right, after reading Jen’s post and now yours, I have to take the kids here! Looks fab!
xx
It is a lovely place to enjoy the outdoors. Let me know what you think if you go :) x
What glorious mud (Although I admit I am glad I’m not the one doing the washing). So much fun
:D Their snowsuits and wellies got the brunt of it thankfully so not too much washing for me.
