Birthday bliss

What a wonderful weekend my loved ones arranged for me to celebrate my birthday! Saturday at the seaside enjoying the first sunny and warm spring day, building sand castles, eating icescream and admiring both the beauty of the natural reserve, as well as the close-by luxorius villas. It is always a debate, weather the 3h a day is worth it, but at the end of the day it always turns out to be. We ended the day sipping a glass of cava at a relaxed lounge bar while kids were playing at the playground. These moments really fill and stay in my heart❤ My birthday started with a toilet session with my toddler, but fortunately I just made it back to bed eyes closed, before the door opened with the birthday ceremonies, a happy birthday song, group hugs and a mountain of presents! They are SO CUTE my bunch of smaller and bigger babies!!Of course, by group pressure, I had to start opening my gifts from the Neuhouse chocolate box and share a tour with each little party goer. My 8 and 11 year old girls had picked me two sweet pink bottles from Rituals described as "crackling shower gel sensation" and something else that resembled 1st of May celebration foam flying around my shower cabine when on test drive. They smelled as sweet as my little girls. (In parenthesis, I learned these two angels had managed to bargain a tube of mascara each from dad during the shopping fare, sneaky ones.) I also got a portable coffee thermos, that resembled a huge camera zoom "to the photographer of life", as well as a XL size tea cup, which stated in French: Avant mon cafe du matin, je suis a) gentille b) fresch c) de bonne humour d) ta gueule. The last one was selected. The kids looked worried about my expression, as I actually am a morning person always greeting them with a cheery smile, hug and good morning breakfast served. Apparently it was the only mug in store. The fabulous moms was sold-out To compensate the lazy Saturday strolling, today was the sporty day. We packed the car again, 5 bikes up and headed towards the Lakes (Lac de l'eau de l'heure) an hour away. It was so refreshing again o change the scenery from the city dust. We arrived at noon to this holiday district with every possible water sport activity available . The biking trail was beautiful,by the lake side waterfront. No crowds, just the nature and shimmering lake. The whole family enjoyed greatly and 20 Km went flying. Definitely worth a return visit!
To finish the day a glass of cava and Roland Garros, as a new tennis enthousiast I am. Thank you my loved ones for being in my life. Happy and grateful mama.
