I have decided to set myself some goals for 2016. There's A LOT I would love to achieve and I know I can do it if I put my mind to it. 1) To decorate my house. We moved into a new build in April (2015) and I was advised not to decorate or put shelves up as the house was still drying...
So Christmas has been... and gone. It always goes by so fast but this year it truly did fly by! The kids enjoyed Christmas but it was super stressful and I am so glad it's over. Everything went wrong, nothing went to plan and it was just... crap to be honest. But the main thing is, the kids had a good time and...
On the last day of term, before the kids broke up for Christmas, they had a Christmas carol church service as they go to a Church of England school. I always love watching there Christmas festivities but especially in the church at this time of year. It's truly lovely. They put in a lot of effort and the school choir even sang silent...
It's so hard to get a photo of all three kids looking at the camera, at the same time AND smiling! You would think with them being older (aged 12, 10 and 8) this would be easy but it isn't. I can't actually believe that the boys agreed to wear the same T.shirt, either. Mind you, Harry had no choice as it's the...
It's that time of year again, time to plan for Christmas and the meal plan is no exception. Here's our Family Christmas meal plan for this year. Christmas Eve. Lunch will be cold beef sandwiches with salad. There will also be some festive snacks out, too. For dinner we will have all day breakfast including: Sausages, bacon, scrambled egg, toast, baked beans and...
The kids asked if we could make some cupcakes, I said of course we could! I had Christmas cakes in mind, however, they had other ideas, haha. Ellie wanted to make Frozen cupcakes and the boys just wanted to decorate there cakes with whatever was on offer - a bit of everything! So that's what we did. I already had a cupboard full...
When I was a little girl, I remember many, many years of Santa visiting our village on his sleigh with his elves and helpers. There would be a donation bucket where people would put in whatever they could afford to donate money to charity, helping those in need during the festive season. I had actually totally forgot about this until last Friday. We...
I have got SO much to do before Christmas, I really need to write a list and set myself some goals. I find that when I set myself a list of things to achieve, things actually do get done and a lot faster, too. So here's my list of things to get done before Christmas. 1) Finish Christmas shopping 2) Wrap all presents....
Gosh, December is flying by so fast. Too fast! I am still not ready for Christmas. Nowhere even near. I have so many gifts to buy still. I know it'll all work out in the end and Christmas isn't just about gifts and what not but even so, it's stressful! I'll start off with the 'not so great' things that have been going...

The Insta Natural Dead Sea Mud Mask captures minerals from the dead sea waters along with organic minerals...
When we moved house back in April, a lot of my Christmas baubles got broke. It was my own fault for not wrapping them up properly. I decided to go with a copper/rose gold, silver and gold theme this year, for our Christmas tree. I was in desperate need for new baubles. Here are the ones I'e bought recently. First up this pack...
