A pocket of my life

Our December box 2023 is ready for Friday, I personally love creating these and have for years, I wanted to share what I have put in this year to hopefully give you some ideas if you wish to create one. I will always add their advent calenders at the back, ready for them to open in the morning. This year I have put in some Christmas crafts for them to enjoy through the whole of December, these include a nativity fizzy felt, some paper chains and a Rudolph ring toss.  I have also got a colouring book and new festive story for them to enjoy. We have some little racing toasties at the front, just something I picked up after Christmas last year, a magic flannel and some bath fizzers. Lastly I always include some new festive Pj's, this means that they can get a full month's wear out of them and make them feel really festive, me and Liam also have the same pj's this year which makes me very happy. I hope you enjoyed finding out what's in our December box, it certa

Cocoa Canopy drinking chocolate -  Being a hot chocolate loving family, apart from Liam we are eager to try these out, we have been sent the smooth milk and the rich dark with vanilla, both sound yummy and perfect for a rainy day. 4. Harringtons cat meat - We have 2 pouches for Jack to try, he used to be so fussy with his food but I am hoping he'll give this a go. 5. Firelli Hot sauce sample -  Las

Goodbye October, who have been fun (mostly), this month has been full of making memories and enjoying the better weather before winter rears it's head. We started off slow with a few park trips and dress up at school, a slow start was honestly what we needed after last month. We did have so car troubles later in the month but luckily nothing Liam couldn't fix.  We have had some lovely days out including a lovely trip to  Bodiam Castle  it was so nice to explore and enjoy the seasonal quest they had.  We also got around to decorating the girls bedrooms, a feature wall of sage green with the rest being white, they also have personalised LED lights for above there beds. Lastly comes Halloween, both my girls love it with the  Boo basket , trick or treating and dressing up too, we firstly did a hint in our local shopping centre with Lils being Wednesday and Olivia as a gothic bride. Halloween day was fun was a party and trick or treating in our local area, Olivia was a g
