Sharing Family Life and Travel
For Christmas, we decided to take the kids to Paris! I'm a big fan of making memories rather than buying things they don't really need that just becomes clutter. Why Paris? Freckled Face number 4 has had a little obsession with the Eiffel Tower since she was about 18 months old and Paris was on [...]
With Mothers Day coming up it's got me to thinking about my motherhood journey. It's been a bumpy journey, with ups and downs, but a journey that I am very happy to stay on and keep experiencing. I have learnt a lot, changed a lot, messed up lot and questioned what I'm doing...a lot! As [...]
Yet again Christmas is going to be different this year and plans have been cancelled due to Covid. As we tried to figure this years Christmas out, we couldn't help but think of our Christmas in Canada. 2 years ago we were lucky enough to spend 2 and a half weeks in Canada with most [...]
Paphos (or Pafos) is a fun and beautiful place to visit. It's great for visiting as a couple, with friends or as a family. After a recent visit to Paphos Cyprus, we thought we'd share a few 'Must See' places. Archaeological Park An absolute must! Not only is the history cool and interesting, but the [...]
This week is Children's Mental Health Week. With all the craziness of the past year, I think this years acknowledgment of it is even more important than ever! Children, like adults, have had a year of not knowing when normality will resume, being teased with a little normality - for it to be taken away [...]
We got SNOW!!! This made the last few days of 2020 lots of fun! 4 days of playing in the snow! We are very happy and had lots of fun! On the first day of snow, there was a lot of snow, but it was still exciting to see and be out it in. We [...]
A couple of years ago we went to Dunham Massey at Christmas and we were SO impressed! We absolutely LOVED it! Last year we spent Christmas time and New Years in Canada, so we didn't go to see the display. This year, with all the madness of Covid-19, we were unsure if we were going [...]
Usually, we would spend our Halloween at a Trunk n Treat activity at church, with friends. Thanks to COVID19, this year, that wasn't allowed. So here is what we did instead. PAINTED PUMPKINS Which one is your favourite?? The kids really enjoyed doing these! They were limited to what they could chose to do, because [...]
We were fortunate enough to be invited to a media event at Waterworld, in Stoke-on-Trent. What a place!! There was something for everyone, and we all really enjoyed our time there. After we parked and got in the queue, we had our temperatures taken before entering the building. Everyone was encouraged to keep 2m apart, [...]
These are just a few of the things our 4 Freckled Faces have said over the years that have tickled us. Oh how I WISH I had remembered to write them all down! Which ones have you heard before too? Which one gets you laughing most? Mum, if a cheetah gets old...will they need [...]
