Life In 52: {Weeks 15 and 16}

At the start of January I began a new year-long photography project: Life In 52. The idea is simple – to take one photo a week for each week of the year. It’s a lifestyle photography project, documenting little snippets of my life that I want to remember. The project is being hosted by Sarah…

Project Happy {Year 5}: Days 31-40

It feels like a long time since my last Project Happy post – we’ve been away on holiday to our favourite place in Cornwall and come home again since then! It’s been a really lovely second half of the Easter holidays and exactly what we all needed – fresh air, lots of walks by the…

Project Happy {Year 5}: Days 21-30

April.  The start of the Easter holidays.  A much needed break from normal routine.  The weather has been rubbish but we’ve made the most of the pockets of dry in between the relentless rain, filling our days with simple and quiet things.  Everyone is tired.  I’m simultaneously craving adventures outdoors and downtime indoors.  It seems…

Adventures at Croome

“It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light and winter in the shade” ~ Charles Dickens Last week we had a completely unexpected day of sunshine and warmth after what has felt like weeks of snow, rain, wind and…

March 2018: The Moments In Between

I take hundreds of photos every month, and most of them don’t get shared with anyone, let alone online. And yet the moments in time that those photos capture are just as important a part of our story as the other images that I do choose to share. I created this blog as a way…

Little Loves: March 2018

March has felt like the longest month ever.  Today marks the start of the Easter holidays but honestly I thought they would never arrive – the days were passing by but the end of term just didn’t seem to be getting any closer, even though it’s only been a short half term.  It’s been quite…

Project Happy {Year 5}: Days 11-20

These last two weeks have felt weirdly never-ending, like the Easter holidays aren’t actually getting any closer.  We’re looking forward to two weeks of fun together and keeping everything crossed that the weather plays nicely so we can get outdoors as much as possible in between having time at home with friends round. There has…

High School Drama

Back in October, which seems forever ago now, we had to choose which three high schools we wanted to put down on Ella’s application for placement this coming September.  Firstly, I still can’t quite believe that my baby, the one who made me a mother, is going to high school in less than six months…
