Girls weekend with Flo

Since Tryfan and Rhodri went away to Devon for the annual Rugby Tour, we invited dearest friend Flo to come visit us. Flo is Rhiannon's godmother and they haven't seen each other for a long time, so it seemed like a very good idea. And it was!
She arrived on Friday night and we collected her from Haywards Heath station, then came home to settle in.

Saturday was a bit busy, with Rhiannon and Sophie running their final Football Cafe of the season while Flo and I took Winnie on a walk up behind Tablehurst Farm, then we came back home for lunch before heading out to Brighton for the afternoon.

We did some clothes shopping for Rhiannon, treated ourselves to ice cream and a chocolate feast at ChoccyWoccyDooDah, then walked out on Brighton Pier. It was a beautiful day with dramatic skies. We did get caught by a sudden downpour and took the opportunity to invest in a new umbrella.

Us with a chocolate dog - literally made of chocolate!

Then on Saturday night we lounged on the blue couch and watched FLASHDANCE. Yes, we educated Rhiannon with this classic '80s movie and it was fabulous. So fun to sing along nice and loud during this girlfest night!

In the morning, we took Rhiannon to her horse riding lesson and walked around the forest with Winnie. Then we went for brunch at Trading Boundaries.

 

In the afternoon, we hung out at home relaxing, then cooked a nice meal for us 3 before taking Flo to catch her train at 5:11 pm. We are so happy that Flo was able to come stay with us and make this such a fun weekend.
