Reasons to be Cheerful: Siblings, Cumbria and Roses #R2BC

Thank you again Michelle for hosting the linky its great to be able to share the happy things with our little community. Here are my reasons to be cheerful this week:

1) Proud Mum

My son took place in his school's fell race morning this week. Over 200 children took part in both competitive and non competitive races around the Castle hill. In a tough race he was 5th in his category and oh so close to 4th. Good lad:

2) Sibling Love

As any parent of more than one child knows, siblings argue a lot! However mine do actually care for each other very much and sometimes they even do this:

 3) Roses

Some of my roses are still looking absolutely stunning:

4) Operation House

With help from family the saggy, too big sofa has now gone from the lounge. Instead we now each have our own Poang which are preloved but still in great condition:

5) Cumbrian Life

This week it was one of the idyllic fell training nights up on The Helm. Who wouldn't want to be up on the hill side on an evening like this:
