Loving the sunshine

I woke up this morning, to a beautiful blue sky -YAY!!

Seeing the sunshine makes everyone so much happier, all that Vitamin D being created by my skin is so good for me, my bones and it is also claimed to help prevent the onset of diabetes (just made sure I put my SPF tinted moisturiser on first - of course!).  Our skin feels much better in good weather too - just avoid sunburn :-)

A walk with Cookie (my dog) in the sunshine is always fun, the rabbits and the guinea pig enjoy the fresh green grass in their run, even the children seemed to get up in a better mood.

So here's one of the reasons
Sunshine boosts levels of the body's serotonin - our natural happy hormone. That's why we tend to feel happier and more energetic when the sun shines. Regular sun can help stave off moderate depression, particularly if combined with exercise, such as a walk in the park especially with a dopey dog. It's also been shown that exercising outdoors creates more endorphins in the body than exercising indoors.


Cookie loves the pond and mud too


 Off to enjoy another walk in the sun and pick my little girl up from school.

Enjoy our lovely spring day everyone
