Number 9 Dream

So the mister and I recently marked our ninth wedding anniversary.  I know I know, I look too young right?! So it was off to the Lake District, one of my happy places, for a child free night in a hotel and some beauty chasing.  Here are a few quick snaps


 We visited Hawkshead for a spot of lunch and a walk about.  I love Hawkshead.  It's like a little Tudor rabbit warren.  I've blogged about it before here.  




There was a cafe with the biggest cakes I have ever seen


And the usual touristy Beatrix Potter gubbins


Of course I had ice cream.  I always have ice cream.  

Dress: Asos
Leggings: goodness knows
Shoes: Office
Jacket: Ebay
Scarf: charity shop
Bag:  gift from Ilaria

I know nine is one of those awkward inbetween numbers that doesn't constitute a particular milestone but, I'm firmly of the belief that a happy marriage is a huge achievement in this day and age and something to be celebrated.  I also quite like presents.  It didn't take me long to start missing the kids though.  By the second day I was starting to go cold turkey from that velvet soft skin and baby smell.

Such is life

  2. Well, that looks lovely, Lucy! The wonderful Lake District, cake and ice cream, and a hotel with your man, what could be better? Happy anniversary - of course nine years is as worthy of celebration as any other number, I don't believe the nonsense about the only numbers worth noticing ending in 5 or 0!
    Love your frock, and your cheeky ice cream-fuelled grin! I must be a horrendous mother - I never miss the kids when I go away, I even forget to ring them. Bad Mummy! xxx
