October recap | 2024

Image
This month has been CRAZY and one that I won't forget! It involved making so many memories and so many smiles! We started our month off with an impromptu car show that we found on a shopping trip, the girls loved it and the cars were so cute too. We also attend pur first and second bonfire this month with Hastings at the beginning and Staplecross one at the end. I love bonfire night as it makes me feel so cosy and happy.  The best day that we had was seeing Mcfly for the first time at the o2 arena, we managed to get tickets for their 21st birthday party concert and I honestly had the best night. Me and Lils were singing along and dancing and having the time of our life.  A couple of day trips included scotney castle and lime tree farm.

Lime tree farm was set up beautifully for pumpkin picking and we had a lovely time whilst there. One night we manag...

February recap | 2023

We started with a Mcdonalds breakfast and finished in the arcades at the 2p machines. Finally I am feeling better so I have taken the girls out more, on walks and to the park to make up for the past couple of months. The fresh air has done the world of good for my mental health and I feel the girls really appreciated the time too. We celebrated Valentines day with a few little gifts and Liam cooked me a love dinner, we had homemade burger and chips. During half term we visited  Scotney Castle  and hunted out some dinosaurs, we made cookies, visited family and went on a lovely walk to find some horses. The past week we have enjoyed some pancakes for pancake day, Olivia is not a fan of crep...

Yesterday we took a trip to Scotney Castle for a Halloween adventure we had a voucher for a family pass and thought that this was the perfect time to take the opportunity to have some family fun.  At Scotney castle they are running half term fun in the form of Scotney school of Sorcery, during your visit you will need to find words that are part of a spell and at the end if you need to use the spell and see its it's correct. This has a small charge of £3 for you spell sheet and a prize at the end of an insect gummy. The do encourage dress up too for this event. They have decorated the grounds, castle and house beautifully with pumpkins everywhere and the clues were very spooky and made the day extra fun. The grounds look beautiful right now with the autumn colours everywhere and leaves pathing the grass. The grounds are suitable for wheel and buggy but it does have so steep slopes. We headed down to the old caste first which is part ruin, part house which is surrounded ...
