I'm back :)

Had a fabulous time with family over the weekend. It was cool to be together again - the 4 of us. And the first time I've visited Mum and Dad's since I helped them move in a year ago - so loads of changes! Really, really good to see them all. And Hazel and I sang a lot ... I'd forgotten how much I like singing. We like a lot of the same music so it helps.

Also: Mum and Hazel and I went blackberrying (well, we went out for a walk but it turned into blackberrying - luckily Mum had a suitable bag with her), and then I made an AMAZING blackberry crumble cake. It was the pioneer woman's blueberry crumble cake (I now follow the pioneer woman on facebook. This is a wonderful thing.), only with blackberries. And it was GORGEOUS.

So. Photos of that to follow. Probably on Thursday, because tomorrow Chris and I are going out to a water park thing to play in the pool and go down slides and stuff. Because slides are IMPORTANT. Yeah :D. Head on over to the other blog for a couple of posts if you haven't read them yet - and some nice photos of tea :) - and I'll be back as soon as I can.

(Since getting back from the parents' I've also been to work and back - 3 hour commute each way - and done a solid 10 hours' work whilst there (in 2 bits, Mon afternoon and this morning). Everything's going pretty smoothly so far, although I'm still finding it tiring, partly because things are still new and I'm learning a lot all the time and partly because I'm still getting used to the commute thing. But I'm enjoying it, and it's getting easier to handle)
