Grandpa Laurie visiting

This weekend we had the pleasure of a visit from Bear's Dad, (and Sean's Grandpa) - Laurie. Sean refers to him as 'The giant' as he is 198cm(!) tall and just loved spening time with his farfar :-) 

We spent the weekend eating out at various restaurants such as Ishtar and Summerhouse  and after a traditional Swedish breakfast that I prepared at home. Bear also took his Dad and Sean for a lovely al freso lunch on the lawn at Stoke Park.

It was lovely for us to have the three generations together and we agreed that we must do it more often.. 

Oh, and here is my favourite pic that was simply too good to shrink for the collage:

Father and son, with the envious genes..
Pretty unbelievable to think that these two handsome men are 48 and 73 years old! Now that, you wouldn't have guessed, right?!

Snippets of our Bank Holiday Weekend

Our packed weekend, from top to bottom: A day at leisure at our country club Stoke Park,  local lunch in Marylebone at Briciole (not to be recommended as it's overpriced with very small portions!),  Dinner and drinks at newly opened hotel Melia that has one of best rooftop terraces, with the most incredible views over London's skyline, lunch on the canal in Little Venice during the canalway festival, and last but not least; barbecue at our friends' house, with several generations and plenty of vino flowing - Needless to say there was lot's to talk about over the sizzling steaks :-)

(Swedish) Mother's Day @ Stoke Park

Yesterday we treated my Mum to a day at leisure at our country club 

Sunny Sunday @ Stoke Park

Cool l'il dude in the Winter sunshine, very excited to be going swimming with Daddy at our country club!

Delicious lunch was served  - always top class at Stoke Park! (veal in this case)

Today Sean first enjoyed splash time in the pool, followed by chicken nuggets for lunch, and then a session in the outdoor playground.

Sean stopped his midday nap quite a while back, but he was obviously a little tired after all the activities, and had a doze on the way home!

Sunday at Stoke Park

Today was spent at leisure at Stoke Park, where we also had a gorgeous lunch (grilled cod wrapped in parma ham with sweet potatoes, spinach and saffron). It's so good for both the body and soul to get out of the city from time to time!
