A Day In The Life - My Weekend | Lifestyle.

For Christmas last year my partner, Alex and I bought his father a ticket to go Gliding at Lasham airfield. It was always something I had heard him mention he would love to do so Alex and I made it happen! Luckily, the ticket could be used at any point within a year of purchase. He decided to wait until our 4 month travels had come to an end as he wanted us to be there with him on the day so we could all enjoy it together. 
The weekend commencing the 23rd of July just so happened to be the first weekend Alex and I had off work together (yay-such a rare occurance) so it was done, booked and ready to go.

Saturday, July 23rd.

Alarm set for 9am I was up and ready to go by 10am. We got there nice and early and it was such a beautiful day- timed just perfectly. Being that his flight didn't take off until 11am we sat in the beautiful sunshine with ice creams watching everyone else take off. Then, came his turn. Alex, his mother and myself were invited along with to the runway so we could watch him take off. It was such a cool experience for him and we thoroughly enjoyed watching the gliders in the air.

After the flight, we headed back to their home for a yummy lunch and we all enjoyed an iced coffee sat outside in the beautiful sunshine. It was honestly such a wonderful day, and it was just so lovely to all have a nice time together.

Sunday July 24th.

'One day you'll wake up at 11:30AM on a Sunday morning with the love of your life and you'll make some coffee and pancakes and it'll be alright'. This was an ecard I read on Instagram on my Monday morning commute to work. I loved it so much because on this very Sunday Alex and I did just that. We got to enjoy a much needed lye in and then enjoy a coffee and some pancakes sat in the garden. We spent the entire day together just the two of us and it was wonderful. The recipe we used for the pancakes was one of Jamie Oliver's. If there is one thing we love, it's a good pancake and we have spent many years trying to perfect them. However, it seems Jamie Oliver got there first and we would totally recommend his recipe as we use it every time.



I hope you've had a short but sweet, good read now I'll let you enjoy a select few photos from Saturday.


Really enjoying the buggy!



There were so many gliders!
