Woke up to another beautiful, sunny day. We're getting spoiled with all this sunshine, not that I'm complaining! We packed up the cars and headed into Exeter which is about a 30-45 minute drive from Dale & Lauren's. We parked the cars and walked along the Quay checking out the small market and browsing the antique shops. 
Next we headed to a neat grassy area nestled between a cathedral and shops. It's quite a large area and obviously very popular as it was packed with people laying on the grass, hanging out with friends, and picnicking. We brought a lunch with us so we rolled out the blankets and enjoyed our sandwiches in the sunshine. Once finished the boys and Olivia threw around the football. Olivia looked like she was playing monkey in the middle because she just ran back and forth between the boys.
We arrived back home around 4pm and started getting ready for the BBQ and Keith put Olivia's trike together. Lauren's parents and brother arrived over and Olivia had no shortage of attention or gifts. Terry & Jane had bought Olivia a trike as well so now she has one of home and at their place. She was in her element. Dale cooked up an excellent feast then we got stuffed on the black forest cake he made for Olivia. It was fantastic. We sat around and chatted, Olivia opened her gifts, and we played a game of pass the parcel - she loved it.
