A pocket of my life

May, what can I say? You were a blast and I wish we could live it over again! The month started with a trip to the travelling fun fair, the girls have never been to one before but they had an amazing time.  We also celebrated May day the only way people for our area know, with Jack in the green and the May day bike run, this honestly sets the month off in such a lovely way, everyone seems happy and its just so much fun.  Most of the month we have been finalising the plans for mine and Liams wedding, we have been crafting, organising and just generally getting ready. I took a day off work to enjoy some time with him, we had lunch together and had a mooch around our local town. The weekend before we got married I went and got my nails done, and then I got to celebrate one of my friends hen do's. We went for a bottomless brunch of pizza and prosecco, it was honestly such a blast with some amazing people.  The day before the wedding I found a baby bird which had f...

Where did May go? It has been and gone within a flash but we have managed to get so much done in just one month! May started off with the end of half term and May day, Hastings celebrates May day in a different way to many people with an event called Jack in the Green . This is a day that I really enjoy, the atmosphere and the mood is so positive and fresh and then you get the added bonus of the bike run too. Its one day that we try not to miss and Lils got to be in the parade too. We have spent lots of time enjoying the garden, cycling and getting out in the sunshine while it lasted. We have planted the sunflowers and started to grow some strawberries too. Still can't believe that we actually have a garden. The next half term was here in a flash, it started with mine and Liam's 17th anniversary, we enjoyed fish and chips on the beach with the girls and just had a really chill day. During the holidays we took a trip to the playpark with Grandad, granny and Lils cous...

May has been a wild one and one that has had a lot of smiles and memories made. The highlight of this month was that Liam has got himself a job which he is loving. It seems so odd to have him out the house but we are all so happy for him. The start of May me and Lils went to Eastbourne to see  Everybody's talking about Jamie  which was incredible, we also managed to get to stage door and meet some of the cast too, something I have never done before. Lils also competed for there school that week and smashed the 75m sprint coming in 2nd. A few days later we got to experience seeing the Northern lights, well kind of, We were able to see them through a photo we we took them but sadly not with our eyes.  Lils has also taken part in her SAT's exams and she did so well, there was so much pressure on them for these, more from themselves than anyone else but she honestly did us so proud getting through them with a smile on her face. The sun has shown its face a few tim...

Wow! We are just about to make it half way though 2023, how is that possible? We have had a pretty full on month but its been a good one full of making memories. We started off the month with Jack in the green, this is a local event that happens every May day and is a celebration of Spring/Summer. This is probably one of my favourite events that our local town put on as its such a positive and fun atmosphere. The same week we also took a trip to Circus Zyair  with Liam's Mum and watched King Charles Coronation.  The weather this month has been beautiful and we have tried to take full advantage of it and enjoy the sun while we can, we have been over Nannies garden, going on walks and generally being outside in the fresh air (I do wish we had a garden though). On the 25th of this month Liam and I celebrated our 15th anniversary, I can't believe we have made it this far, he has honestly been my rock through some of the hardest times and we have laughed until we have c...
