Somehow we are three-quarters of the way through September already. Autumn has most definitely set in and we’ve pretty much settled into our new school routine now I think. It’s not been a gentle start to the term though with homework and spellings and times tables galore, sports event and after school club permission slips…
These last couple of weeks have been a bit tougher than I anticipated, with the end of the summer holidays and the transition back to school. We’ve all had to get used to earlier mornings, a new routine and dealing with all the changes that come with the new school term. I think we’ve finally…

We’re halfway through the summer holidays now and it’s been a relatively simple couple of weeks with a mixture of work days, quiet days and adventure days. It’s hard to believe that in just three short weeks time the girls will be going back to school and a whole new chapter will be starting. As…

A mostly Italian edition of #projecthappy this time, following our adventure to Lake Maggiore during the first week of the summer holidays. It truly is an absolutely spectacular place with incredible scenery, a different pace of life and plenty of places to explore – we’ve each come home with a ton of new memories. In…
