I was sitting at the table with the kids tonight about to start our Saturday night games night when the moon caught my eye. It looked beautiful and all I wanted to do was get outside and take photos of it but we were just about to play Rapidough and the kids had been looking forward to taking on me and Mr Frugal all day. I thought I was going to have to miss out on the photo taking until the perfect solution came to me. ;-)Five minutes later we were all in the car with the dog (and my camera) heading to the beach to take photos play football. Every now and again, I kicked the ball … [Read more...]

It's not easy keeping up with the kids these days!I regularly get a text message from one of my two that honestly reads like a foreign language to me thanks to all of the abbreviations they use and we have some quite funny conversations with me trying to get to the bottom of what they wanted and them thinking it's hilarious!I do hate text speak most of the time but when I'm texting the kids, I feel like it's a case of if you can't beat em join em and a little while ago I even shared a few of the text speak abbreviations that I'd learned from my messaging my two.You'll be … [Read more...]

After our amazing holiday to Cyprus earlier this year, we've decided to make our little mother and daughter holiday into an annual event which means we have lots more trips together to look forward to.

Awesome conker crafts….
I might have mentioned on Facebook that we love getting out and collecting conkers at this time of year and that all we do with them is put them in a bowl so we can look at them and hope they really do keep spiders away.The very lovely Maggy from Red Ted Art was slightly horrified when she heard this as she pointed out there are so many conker crafts you can do with a plain old conker. Unconvinced,I asked her to give me some ideas and look at what she did - she wrote a whole list of conker crafts for me and has very kindly said I can share them with you all.I'll hand you over to … [Read more...]
