Cotswolds weekend with friends

This weekend was spent in the Cotswolds with Matt, El, Clare and little Livvy. We had a different cottage to previously which of course meant we got horribly lost trying to find it. (The GPS wasn't nearly accurate enough at the end.)
The weather was a bit miserable on Saturday so we went to Gloucester Quays and got some lunch.

Because we can.
Loves her pasta
A lot.
Livvy was quite happy feeding herself so we could also eat.


After lunch, the weather had cleared up enough to take a walk along the cannel before doing some shopping. Although you wouldn't think it from some of the photos. At least it stopped raining.

Day time, I promise.
It was a bit windy.
We had fun getting Livvy to walk in the wind. She loves it and giggled as much as we did. But she does only have little legs so went in the carrier.

The gang
After a walk we did a little shopping (I think I am completely finished with Christmas presents now) and Matt and I had fun putting hats on the kid. (We were left unsupervised!)

Not a fan. Though so cute.
We had a quiet night in, with snacks (no dinner needed after a giant lunch), DVDs and a fire when Livvy had gone to sleep. We really are party animals. 


After cleaning out of the cottage, we stopped at Stow-on-the-Wold as it was only a 10 min drive away and wondered around.
Our cottage.
Chilling.
We stopped in a cafe and got Livvy some lunch. She really enjoys looking at pictures of herself on the phone.
Waving at herself
Giggles. 
Not sure how this one happened.
Matching jumpers.
The trip back wasn't too bad though I hit some nasty traffic on the way back Clare's. Looking forward to the next catch up.
And today I managed to get my USA visa approved so looking forward to some travel next year. :)
