Golden Acre Park

Sunday saw this family get wrapped up in our winter gear and head for the stunningly Autumnal Golden Acre Park in Leeds, where we met with my friend and fitness trainer, Caroline, and her three gorgeous boys, Barnaby, Ralph and Henry, for a walk around the lake.

I’ve known Caroline since we were 16, meeting many moons ago at Sixth Form and reconnecting when I moved back to Leeds from London six years ago. I can’t actually believe we’ve known each other for twenty years! I know what you’re thinking? We look so young huh 😉

The most wonderful thing about having old mates in your life is seeing your kids become close too and getting all our boys together on the weekend was such a treat. The crisp weather and fun in the fresh air feeding the ducks, left us feeling rather festive by the end of the day. Just look at those red berries and fir trees!

We watched wide-eyed as the eldest of the group, my son, Oliver, took charge, directing his little crew around the lake, even holding Barnaby’s hand at one point – bless…And then, Xander decided to adjust Ralph’s hat to make sure he didn’t get cold melting us all. Cuteness overload or what?!

The baby of the group, 18 month old Henry is just so adorable with his great big blue eyes and calm demeanour. That cherubic face saw everyone pass us by, stop to say ‘hello’.

Not before long, Henry felt hungry so feasted on The Super Yummies tomato and herb bread sticks and pear and berries and also apple and orange rice cakes and later enjoyed some strawberry, kiwi and banana squeeze.

Just look at his bunny-eared LittleLife backpack with reigns too which was perfect for stashing The Super Yummies snacks inside!

Jumping in puddles, wading through leaves, feeding the ducks, breathing in that lush, fresh air and all amidst, non-stop laughing, stroking the most adorable dog imaginable I wanted to take home with me, and laughing our little hearts out, I’d say this was one of my most favourite Sundays to date.
