Get To Know us…

We’re at the end of a long week and everyone is ready for the holidays to begin. Everyone is exhausted and I think we all need a break to relax. We had the devastating news that my parents are now in tier 3 and whilst we’re not that far from them, we’re over the border […]

I wrote my last ‘My Little Snapshots’ post on the 13th March and reading it back, we were on the edge of lockdown and there was a lot of uncertainty about what was going to happen. We obviously all know what happened and what a strange 6 months it has been. I didn’t write these […]

What a week it’s been! I’ve felt overwhelmed with life this week. It feels like life has speeded up again and I wasn’t ready for it. Both the girls schools are now back to how it should be, with sending home homework and of course this is good that we are getting back to some […]

Why does September always flyby? Every year I feel like, I blink and we’re in October. We have three more weeks until half term is here and I know that those three weeks will whizz by too. I usually like October, as it is filled with Halloween fun, pumpkin picking, Halloween party and trick n […]

Autumn has definitely arrived, and it was time to get out the boots this week. We had another lazy weekend and it didn’t stop raining all weekend.

It feels like we’re on the edge of going back into lockdown, and this week I took the time to meet up with friends and family who I haven’t seen since before lockdown back in March. With the government announcement on Monday, we’re lucky to live in an area that is in tier 1 and […]

I have had a busy work week, trying to get as much done as I can before the girls finish for half term. They have an inset day today and then off for all of next week. Andy is off too, which is unusual for October half term. But because of lockdown, he has a […]

It’s been half term for us this week and we’ve had a lovely week together. Andy had half term off too, for the first time, as he had to use up holiday or loose it. I think we were already for a break and whilst its been a very wet week, its been nice to […]

Last week didn’t end that great, we got news from Alice’s school that she had to self isolate until today. It meant we had to cancel plans and we had to home school this week. Then with Saturdays announcement of a second lockdown, it was hard to hear. We weren’t able to see friends and […]
