I am pretty sure everyone this week has been smiling about this gorgeous weather, but a photo to capture it? I have gone for one of my gorgeous little man on the beach yesterday. We had a lovely hour down there in the afternoon and then went for a sneaky ice cream at our favourite fancy ice cream parlour!

I posted last week about
our moment of history and it was definitely one of the things that made me smile this week. Getting to hold the olympic torch was a great experience and we had a wonderful morning watching the procession

And last but not least was watching the carnival on Sunday. I remember the weight of the bag of pennies I held in anticipation as a child, the sound of the ice cream vans selling their goodies and the smells of the sea by which we stood waiting for the colour and excitement. Dylan experienced his first carnival yesterday and the noise and colour made his little toes wiggle in excitement. I love how every experience becomes more magical with a child as you see it from a whole new perspective so here is a carnival picture.
So there are my three smiles, what are yours?
Awww, you've picked lovely things this week. Definitely all worthy of big smiles. X
