Yesterday, The Mum Club Sevenoaks hosted a beautiful picnic at The Paddock which brought together 25 mums and their babies for a morning filled with laughter and fun!
The balcony was beautifully decorated with pink balloons and plenty of picnic blankets, setting the perfect atmosphere for a picnic! There were lots of snacks and drinks to keep everyone refreshed - from iced coffees to Shloer! It certainly was a great event!
