A pocket of my life

We have just had the best day at the beach soaking in, what is hopefully the end of the heatwave in the UK. For the past week we have been struggling with 28°c which is hit for here.  Today we took the opportunity to make so last minute summer memories before Autumn hits, we packed a bag with towels, suncream, beach shoes and fresh clothes and headed to Camber Sands beach. Camber Sands is a beautiful beach with a huge amount of sand for the kids to enjoy, we have also loved cooling down in the sea by paddling and swimming. We also managed to see some crabs and fish while there. They were swimming around us when the tide was going out, it was great for Olivia to experience and learn from too. I hope to make many more memories with the girls at the beach next year but for now I am ready for Autumn to appear so we can hunt for chestnuts and make leaf garlands, and snuggle up in cosy jumpers. What has been your favourite summer 2023 memory? Victoria 

Wow, August flew by in a flash and has been a blast, the summer holidays are coming to an end but we have tried to cram as much as we can into the past month.  August started off with a few adventures, we found a new play park which the girls both loved, there was something for both the girls to enjoy and they even got me to join in. Me and Lilly also spent some time on the beach whilst Liam was busy, it was nice to have this time with her whilst Olivia was in nursery. On the rainy days we built a den that the girls could sleep in, Olivia's first one, we made it comfy and cosy and the girls loved it. It was something we used to do before having Olivia so it was nice to bring this sort of thing back into Lils world. Another thing me and Lilly enjoyed was an open air cinema , I had planned this a couple of months back with Liam so that I could have some one on one time with Lils. It was a brilliant night and we both came away smiling, I will definitely do it again. ...
