Musical Week
Kate Rusby at Lincoln Castle and Seth Lakeman at Conkers Waterside Centre, all in one week ... both fantastic concerts but the best was yet to come.
K's first performance with Silver Sounds Brass Band at the annual Twinning Duck Races held in the next village to us, Dunston.The bands version of The Great Escape was fantastic .. one very proud Mama.
And one very proud little brother, O rushed the stage to give his sister a hug.
Time for chilling with Grandad by the river watching those ducks.

At the Show
Our annual visit to the Lincolnshire Show was short on numbers this year due to L & K being away with my parents.
So the day belonged to O.
Those ducks were slippery customers but with Daddy's help, O managed to hook 3 and won a prize.
Meeting the sheep was an experience that O wasn't that sure of !
Planting seeds and getting stickers.
My prize for the day goes to this Mama, who got all her babes to take a nap at the same time ... wonderful.

Our family favourite drink over the Summer ... Lemon Balm Lemonade from Jane Newdicks's Book of Herbs.
Easy to make and so freshing.Into a bowl - zest of 4 lemons, huge handfuls of lemon balm leaves - torn to release flavour, sugar to suit your taste.
Pour in enough hot water to cover and then leave to infuse.
Juice the lemons and add when you feel ready.
Use as a cordial, making up with fizzy water and sprigs of lemon balm.

Book Sharing Monday - Summer Solstice by Ellen Jackson
It had to be really, didn't it ?A book full of facts, stories and lovely artwork.
I love sharing this with the children reminding ourselves that celebrating this day connects us back with our ancestors in honouring the Earth.
