Our Sunday Photo 21/10/18

Last weekend we were lucky enough to have rink side seats to Disney On Ice, Dream Big. All I can say is 'wow'. It was an amazing show. I thought I would pop this on as a little teaser before our full review is posted this week.

This little monkey is absolutely loving football at the moment and has received player of the week. I love how much effort he gives every training session or match. He's having a ball and I love watching him play.

John knows just what to buy me when I'm having a tough time or a rough day. Obviously I love my Disney stuff but I love this mug and it is so true 'Tea Makes Everything Better'

First week back at school and little J has already been to a party. This week he celebrated one of his friend's 6th birthday. It's strange that some of his friends are already 6 or will be soon when little J was only 5 a few months ago. Here he is with PJ Masks Catboy and Gecko.

On the eve of back to school week this photo, this memory, our holiday seems like a million years ago however it was only two weeks. We can't complain because we have had a fun filled Summer doing lots of amazing things and meeting lots of new people. I am sad it's over but I have our fabulous photos to remind us of all the good times we had.

Our Sunday Photo #2 - Tightening The Purse Strings

January is my least favourite month because nothing good happens in January. Christmas has been and gone, you usually feel the need to diet after over indulging at Christmas and money is tight due to over spending. This month we definitely need to tighten our purse strings so we have been opting for winter walks and staying away from January sales. To be honest the last two weekends have been lovely we visited Tatton Park last week, and today we fed the ducks and little J rode his scooter around the park. Days like today don't cost anything but are so much fun. It's nice to cut back every now and then and it's good to remember that most children just need a large open space to run around in with their ball, bike or scooter and days like that usually come free.

Our Sunday Photo #1 - Christmas Is Over

Happy New Year Everyone. I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and New Year. A week ago our fireplace was covered in tinsel, twinkling lights, candles and lots of other festive decorations but now it is so bare and I don't like it. If I am honest I was desperate for the decorations to come down as after the toy explosion that was Christmas the house felt cluttered and dusty and in need of a big clean but now it just looks so miserable.

Yesterday we spent the day at Alton Towers for their annual Scarefest event. We have been going every year for as long as I can remember. It's such a great day and it's the first time all season you can experience the rides in the dark. I will pop a full post on soon about all the scary things you can get up to but for now here's our Sunday photo.

John bought me a new book this week - The Creakers by Tom Fletcher. I cannot wait to read it. Huge fan of Tom and his wife Giovanna's books and this was a bargain at just £6.49.

Last night we headed up to Blackpool to see the Blackpool lights. It's something we do every year but usually we have our winter coats on, hats, scarves, gloves etc but yesterday we just had our rain macs on. It wasn't very cold yesterday so it didn't really feel right seeing the lights on a warm day. We are so used to walking round Blackpool with the cold wind on our face. We might have to take another trip up before they finish. Anyone else been to see the lights yet?

Little J had his haircut this morning ready for starting school. His hair was so long and becoming messy. Now he's had it cut he looks so grown up and his face looks like it's completely changed.

September for us means the beginning of a school year. This year is a little special as I have one child who is going in to his final year in seniors and another child just beginning his school journey in reception.

I don't often think about the age gap between big and little J because they get on so well and do so much together but when we were buying school shoes it hit me. Big J can no longer fit in to the kids range at Clark's and went shopping in the men's section. Where does the time go?
