Scooters, spring and the sea!

Its a blue sky sunny Monday- first official day of spring. I had a magical weekend so am feeling really happy.
Friday night we caught up with my Sister and Paul. My little sis is a lovely cook and had been on a curry mission for 4 hours! We had a beautiful meal and a really chilled evening with a few glasses of vino. I feel like S and P are finding more common ground and had lots to chat about, always good as my family are my number 1.
Saturday morning we were woke early by whispering of little people giggling and arguing.. Two gorgeous little people came in to the bedroom to wish us good morning. Izzy got straight into bed for a snuggle. Joseph a bit too cool for this at age 6 asked for a snack and so I went to get fruit and set him up with cartoons.
When I got back Izzy and Stu had already started on the pillow fight. I later found out Stu started it!
We went down stairs pretty quickly, I made a rule for no play fighting before 9 and the kids and Stu played games and made a huge paper snake before breakfast.
We scooted down to the park about 10. Izzy has this amazingly cute style on her pink scooter where she gets going then kicks her leg up like she's in a movie! It's amazing the difference between girls and boys! We went by the river for a bit of a ramble and explore.
Before 1 we had run around playing football, done the play park and hide and seek a picnic and pooh sticks. The afternoon was building Mama's condo out of lego, toy story 3 and the shopping game. It was a lovely day, we were both shattered afterwards! Amazingly beautiful full moon in the evening!
Yesterday I had a magical day by the sea with a good friend for my birthday. Tynemouth market which I love! Got some beautiful painted wooden buttons, butterfly's for me, hearts with flowers for Emma. Had fish and chips looking at the sea. Found a rock in the sunshine and sent love to my mum across the sea, thought about how powerful the sea is! The sky looked super low either that or the tide was high. We had a big walk through the sands, and a pint and a half of Guinness looking at the sea!
Last night I went for a beautiful Persian feast at a lovely friends to celebrate Naw Ruiz.
Today sees me cracking on with applications, then a walk in the spring sunshine down to town for 2 interviews with agencies. Got to improve my working scenario with my enthusiasm and commitment..one woman I'm meeting in particular sounds lovely so fingers crossed, times are changing with the season. :)
