Busy Easter Weekend

I’m a little late on this post as Easter was a good week ago now, but ehhh….
It was a busy long Easter weekend here at the Dixon’s. We got a visit to the Legoland Discovery Centre in Manchester. It was ok with a few things to do, but I’m afraid that after visiting Legoland in Windsor everything else falls short, but not a bad way to spend a few hours.

Next trip out was for a little ice skating. Ryan just loves it, couldn’t convince our eldest to come along so just the three of us. We all had a great time and I never hit the ice once!! 🙂

Was a little hard going for me as I haven't done much running in the last few year, but with my eldest son on my shoulder all the way talking about the latest game he is playing it wasn't long before we were on the way to the finish line. :) Ryan, mum and dog came in not long after at very reasonable times and I am proud of them all for doing it. Eldest Son: 30mins. Me: 34mins. Ryan: 47mins. Mum and Kylo: 50mins. So far we have raised almost £400 with still a few cash donations still to come in. The link is st...
