Sue Radford returns from holiday in time for daughter Katie’s baby shower
Missing the excitement of her eighth daughter’s baby shower wasn’t an option for Sue Radford.
The mum-of-22 had enjoyed a weekend away in the family caravan before racing home for Katie’s milestone event.
The Radford family, from Morecambe, Lancs, have amassed more than 535,000 followers on Instagramwhere they share a glimpse into their lives.
They decided to make the most of this weekend’s dry weather with an outing in their caravan.
The fun mini-trip included bowling and a meal at a restaurant before finishing with hot chocolate on Saturday evening.
Sue took to Instagram Stories and tagged her daughter Millie as she said she had a ‘lovely day’.

On Sunday morning, she shared an update for the rest of the weekend.
In one photo, the children were all seen smiling in the caravan as they ate bowls of cereal.
“Breakfast time before we go home. It’s a very exciting day today because it’s @katieeradfordd baby shower,” said Sue.
Katie, 21, is expecting Sue and Noel’s 15th grandchild.
Sue revealed that the baby shower had a Winnie-the-Pooh theme, with a photo of the party favor she received.
She held a miniature jar of honey with a spoon next to a baby toy with the featured Disney character.
After the baby shower, Katie also posted the party favor on her Instagram Stories in a collage next to the cake and her posing next to a balloon arch.
She captioned the post with four blue heart emojis.
Katie announced in May that she was expecting a baby boy with her long-term boyfriend Connor.
The couple beamed as blue smoke poured out at their gender reveal party.
“Baby Carter’s mommy and daddy can’t wait to meet you!” said Katie, posting a video of the action on Instagram.
