More often than not our monthly Me and Mine pics are literally just me and my three lovely boys. Taken — with alarming regularity — at the last minute. Often with a phone/ without makeup (me, not the boys)/ sometimes on the sofa because we can’t actually be bothered to move from the house.
But this month it’s all change! Oh yes.
We’re bucking the trend and our September Me and Mine pics and — similar to the July ones — are marking a family get-together. And not only that — this month (hallelujah) I’m on time!!
Last weekend, it was my little niece’s 4th birthday.
Her actual party was held at a local soft play centre but afterwards, we hotfooted it down to a village pub and settled in for the afternoon, for a late lunch/early tea.
So as well as being the boys and me, there was my sister and her little family. Our mum and dad, plus my brother-in-law’s mum and step-father.
Lots of delicious food, much wine and good company made for a very lovely afternoon indeed.
And the perfect setting for this month’s photos.

haha!! Thanks lovely xx
Beautiful photos as always. You are do good at keeping up with this. We keep saying we’ll take more family photos (more than the one a year we currently manage). Maybe we should join in with #meandmine. That might make us do it.

It’s SO worth doing. I spoke to someone the other day who said they’d only got a couple of family photos — they will definitely be the ones I’ll treasure in later life xx
