Give Me Wings!

Of course the biggest event of the summer was my birthday on July 21st. I became three-years-old and immediately turned into a fairy!

All The Fun Of The Fete!

Back in May I went to the village fete. I rode a pony, went on a really high bouncy slide with mummy, had a lot of rides on a carousel, and I even won a football after shooting the ball into a goal.

I'm Back!

Wow! Summer just seemed to fly by this year - and I was just so, so busy that I didn't have time to sit down and update my blog. Sorry about that - but I was usually outside all day long doing all kinds of interesting things and to be honest I was just too tired in the evenings to sit down and write about it all.
Anyway, I'll try and post a few highlights of the summer over the next few days - so check back regularly and you might see something new. Here's a photo from early summer.

Beautiful Beaulieu...

Last Sunday we went to the UK's newest National Park, Beaulieu, in the heart of the New Forest. Beaulieu is also Britain's most visited stately home and hosts The National Motor Museum, Palace House - home of the Montagu family, the ancient ruins of Beaulieu Abbey, The World of Top Gear and a James Bond Exhibition. It also has wonderful grounds and flower gardens to walk amidst - and with the warm and sunny spring everything was awash with colour. I especially enjoyed the monorail ride and the Ice Cream Cottage but the old cars in the museum, while very interesting for dad, weren't really my thing so I found my own car to drive at the children's play area. Afterwards we drove into the New Forest where the ponies and cows roam free.

Pony Riding...

I went to Adventureland at Bournemouth last Sunday with my Nanny and Mike and Mummy and Daddy. The weather was beautiful and warm - 18 degrees! It felt like summer. The park has lots of rides to go on such as runaway trains, flying elephants, caterpillars, twirling cups and saucers, a petting zoo, and donkey and pony rides. I have always wanted to ride a pony and on Sunday I had two rides - on two different ponies. We had a wonderful day out together and I can't wait to go back again.  

Pretty In Pink...

Looking good on the dancefloor. Went to next-door neighbour Jenny's combined Birthday and Retirement Party last weekend. I wore my beautiful new pink party dress and dancing shoes that Nanny and Mike bought for me. It was hard work being the only Cinderella at the Ball and when dinner was served I sat down and had my food and drink all by myself on the floor.

Let's Go Fly a Kite...

...Up to the highest height. On a beautiful blue-sky day, a gentle breeze and with warm sunshine on the face, me, mummy and daddy went to the park to fly my new Princess kite. A simple thing to do but a lot of fun to see the kite swooping and diving before soaring back up again into the blue. This is something I am looking forward to doing on a windy day.
