Double whammy weekend

Sunday was my birthday as well as Mothers' Day, and here's how I celebrated my weekend:
 

Making 'easter egg scones' with the Kinder Boy on Friday (very yummy way of using up the last of this year's chocolate).


Breakfast in bed: pancakes, juice, roses fresh from the garden (complete with a spider!), handmade cards, presents and presents from the school stall.  The boys did an exceptional job of keeping everything a secret (the Kinderboy was practically bursting at the seams with excitement), and the Schoolboy's present choice was fantastic.  How do you like the card he made at school (it has a teabag inside!).



Puffing Billy (restored steam train): It was freezing in Belgrave, but we all had fun and there were a lot less people than when we tried to go on Easter Saturday.  On our return visit we got an enclosed half-cabin to ourselves just behind the guard, which was perfect in the rain.


Home to bed for a snooze (like one of my 'eight presents including cards' from the Schoolboy!)

Hope you had a grand family time on the weekend.
