This weather, I can’t quite believe how beautiful it is. In fact I can’t ever remember a time a British heatwave lasted this long. I love the heat – yes it can be uncomfortable at times and working in it and dealing with the day to days routine can be hard, but I every year I long for hot sunshine and it is so nice to finally get it.
The only problem for us I suppose is that we have gone into holiday mode. Chores have been left, homework has been forgotten and we have been all staying up late to enjoy these warm evenings. The phrase ‘ we have to make the most of this sun as it won’t last for long’ has been muttered a lot!
After our weekend away in The Lake District and a bit of a stressful week we were looking forward to a chilled Saturday. BBQ, lolly ices, paddling pool and just playing in the garden. We finished the evening toasting marshmallows on our chiminea. It was actually far too late for our girls to be up but it was so much fun, and of course , we are on our holidays! (until Monday that is)
Sweet image, no pun intended. Routine has also gone out of the window here, although that’s because we moved house this weekend. Busy times!
I love the heat too – long may it last! #MySundayPhoto
I love it, keep up the holiday vibe and sod the chores, the weather won’t last forever!
We had a camp fire and toasted marshmallows this week too. Such a great activity even in the heat! Thank you for sharing on #CountryKids
Looks like great summer fun
The holiday mode is the worst (and the best!!). I have dry laundry piled up on a bed waiting to be put away (and I’m on holiday 😕).
Gorgeous photos, lots of Summer fun
Hope you had a good Sunday and thank you for linking up to #MySundayPhoto
We also switched to holiday mode a while back with this stunning weather. Thankfully school is now out for the summer! Love the photo of your girls toasting marshmallows in the chiminea.

It is lovely to have the sunshine and I agree with you about making the most of the nice weather while it lasts (although I am finding it a little too warm for my liking right now!) It is perfect weather for enjoying the paddling pool though and I love the sound of toasting marshmallows on the chiminea. Love how much fun your girls seem to be having with the slide in the paddling pool – that’s always a popular activity here too! 🙂 #countrykids
Love the photos of marshmallow toasting and using the slide to get in and out of the pool #countrykids

Looks lovely! And I thing you’re doing the right thing in treasuring these warm, sunny days and evenings, even if it does mean staying up late 😉x #pointshoot
