So we went on a bear hunt. We managed to find a whole load of different animals but I'm afraid we still have not found it. We did get to take our shoes and socks off and get our feet wet in the river which possibly made up for it. Then there were the sticks and stones to fill our bucket and a pond to throw the stones into. The new favourite thing is the picnic because we usually get to eat some crisps and suddenly lunch time is fun again. I was just happy for the sunshine to enjoy it all in and there was a beautiful walk around the park while the wee man rested his wary head. Overall it's a bit run down at the seams but Dean Castle Country Park was worth the day out. (P.S. Anyone who can give tips for taking pictures in the forest will be much appreciated)
Amazing photos, love your little boys fascinated face :)
ReplyDeleteSarah from apartyofseven is an excellent photographer. She might be able to help with the forest question x
Thank you x
DeleteA gorgeous collection of photos from a great family day out. I can see by the photos that the wee man had such fun. My favourite is of the wee mans feet in the water, very sweet. Thanks for coming over and sharing with Country Kids.
ReplyDeleteYou know I'm a huge country kids fan. Could not miss the opportunity to do some paddling! It really was a great day!
DeleteWhat lovely pics, I particularly like the paddling feet!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you all had a great day out! I love those feet too! X.
ReplyDeleteIt was thanks x
Deletesorry you didnt find a bear (although safer of course!) but what a lovely family day out. Your boy looks so happy in the photos and the one of him holding his cap in the woods is very sweet. but my favourite pics are of him dipping his toes in the water - how wonderful for him x
ReplyDeleteI'm sure only friendly bears live in Scotland :) He was very excited to take his shoes and socks off. Unfortunately it was a bit slippery so could not venture too far.
DeleteWhat brilliant pictures, bad luck about the bear, we never seem to find them either! I love the picture of his wee feet in the river x
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what we will do when we actually find one :) I got daddy to hold him real still for the feet shot!
Deleteoh what beautiful photos - lookslike a perfect day outside :)

Deletelooks a wonderful place! I just try and find places were the light is coming through the trees. Or adjust afterwards on MacBook!
ReplyDeleteI'm trying not to rely too much on editing after :) The light coming through the trees makes lots of sense!
