    5 ideas for a weekend away in the UK

    25 January, 20165 January, 2017

    At this time of year I would usually be spending my evenings on lonely planet, Pinterest and flicking through glossy travel brochures, looking for inspiration for our next travel adventure. However, this year is going to be different. As we are having lots of work done on our house, we are looking to save as

    Travel Inspiration for 2016

    27 November, 20155 January, 2017

      At the moment I’m ‘up north’ for work and today has been cold, rainy and grey in Manchester. For me, that only leaves one option…. it is time to start dreaming about my next holiday. I can’t believe that after we go to Egypt for Christmas we have no more holidays booked (shock horror!)

    TRAVEL: 5 ways to improve your travel photography via Instagram

    25 October, 20157 December, 2017

    The way we take photos on holiday has changed so much over the last few years. When I was little, we would take our photos and have to wait until the end of the holiday to get the rolls of films developed, oh the excitement of getting the holiday snaps back was unreal – let

    TRAVEL: 5 Alternative Cruise Destinations that look out of this world!

    2 October, 20155 January, 2017

    For some reason, although I’ve travelled to many places around the world – I’ve never been on a cruise! I have to say I had a bit of a funny impression of cruises, I think the fact that you have to dress up for dinner and that you only stop for a short time at

    Travel Guides: Thailand

    6 February, 20145 January, 2017

    I was always going to grow up with a deep rooted love for travel, at an early age I travelled around France in my parents old style VW campervan and never looked back. Over the years my desire for exploration grew. As soon as I was old enough my childhood dream came true and I

    Yesterday I shared that getting these two dressed Yesterday I shared that getting these two dressed in the morning is becoming IMPOSSIBLE. They are driving me INSANE. Why won't they get dressed? I mean, how hard could it be to dress a small child?! I felt like I must be doing something so wrong - I can't dress my own children without a battle! But no, it turns out toddlers are just beasts when it comes to getting dressed (even when a trip to the park or a chocolate Santa is offered!) Trust me, trying to get tiny pants on a small child rolling around on their back and bicycle kicking their legs is near on impossible and I honestly, give up. 

 Anyway, when I mentioned this - my DM's EXPLODED. Turns out toddlers everywhere are refusing to get dressed. Who knew this was such a problem?! It wasn't until I started talking about I realised so many of us are in the same boat. I wonder what other moments in our day are all suffering but nothing is really said about it? Have you ever felt like that? Maybe these small moments are some of the hardest.... So, I just wanted to say if you feel like it's all going wrong, it's not. It's just really hard. Toddlers really test you, they are testing their own boindaries too. Can anyone relate? ❤️
    Happy Sunday ✨ It's been a challenging week, but Happy Sunday ✨
It's been a challenging week, but we made it - even if the highlight of the weekend was going through the car wash (highly recommend this toddler approved activity 😆) 
What did you get up to this weekend? ☕
    ....And these are the views that keep me going whe ....And these are the views that keep me going when I run 🏃🏼‍♀️🥰. 

I'm really not a natural runner, in fact, exercise in general has never come naturally to me. It all feels like a slog, but the more I try, the easier it's getting - even when I'm huffing, puffing, sweating and running like Phoebe from Friends. I'm currently doing the #RedJanuary challenge which is getting me through the month, it's given me the kick up the bum I need to put my running shoes on when it's icy cold outside, or get on the bike when I'm feeling exhausted. Knowing me and my team have raised nearly £400 for @SportinMind brings me so much joy too! 🙌🏻

As we go into the second part of the month I'm feeling like the next couple of weeks is going to be quite a slog, it is EXHAUSTING -  but I'm trying to remember that things are tough out there, but just getting a couple of minutes for some fresh air or to take in a beautiful sunset has boosted my mood more than I can tell you. It's the little things we need to look for in these challenging times, right? 😍 

16 days to go.........💪🏻

What has been getting you through the month? ❤️
    AD GIVEAWAY 🥰 So, here we find ourselves in an AD GIVEAWAY 🥰  So, here we find ourselves in another lockdown….only this one seems more challenging with the cold weather, right?

This spring the collection is filled with everything my girls just LOVE - we made Unicorn fairy doors, fairy suncatchers, wooden fairy doors and beautiful fairy flying puppets too. The range is so varied, plus there are other lovely Springtime themed products like Pom Pom Sheep and Easter bunnies too, all things to look forward to in the year ahead - oh I just long for the warmer weather and the first signs of spring blossom, don’t you? 🌸

Lockdown life is tricky but I feel like we are getting back in our groove now. Just taking each day as it comes and trying not to think too far ahead. 

How was your day?

We've had a stressful day, lockdown chaos at home, overtired toddlers, plus trying to get Pearl to see a Dr, who ended up examining her in a tent outside, breezy ☃️. She was fine though so that's all that matters.

    Just a girl and her mermaid tank! 🧜🏼‍♀️🥰

FINALLY... after weeks of preparation and secret squirrel-ing about, Christmas morning was MADE by the gift Violet had asked about since June, a mermaid fish tank.

She couldn't believe it was hers and after unwrapping it asked to have one to keep one day... ❤️ I can't quite believe I managed to keep it hidden behind a stack of boxes so long 😂😂

The tank project has also grown, when we first bought it we decided to get two goldfish... Which, obviously didn't happen...🙈 Soon we were buying temperate fish, then lured in by the pretty colours we upped our game to tropical, added a heater...and more fish 😂 And now we've got 12 tropical fish, we have Zebra Danios, Platys, Guppies, Loaches and today we added our final fish - Neon Tetra. And we are done! I'm now banned from the aquatic shop as I just want them All!

I didn't know buying a fish tank would be so addictive. Not sure who is enjoying it the most. They are so fun and relaxing to watch.

Have you ever kept fish? 🐠
