A Day in the Life, June 2015
So I missed out on April & May as far as a day in the life posts are concerned, but I’m back and I’ve made a note to do it. I’m super sad I was really wanting to do a day while we were in Florida! Maybe in September eh? This was another week day, another Wednesday actually but I’ve tried to photograph different things despite the routine being fairly similar! It’s another week day. Week days fall into two categories on how they play out, if LM is at pre-school in the morning we’re out the house by 8:40 and usually don’t return until 5pm. But this was a…

A Day in the Life, March 2015
This is my third month of doing my A Day in the Life series and for some reason it’s getting harder to remember to take the blooming photos! I ended up using my SLR and my phone as when I went out I left my camera at my mum’s, DOH! This month I documented a weekend day. It ended up being a slightly unusual weekend due to the fact my dad is working away so he didn’t come home as usual on Friday. Plus me mum was having a fundraiser for the pre-school is runs, so I guess it’s a little more interesting than it could have been! …

A Day in the Life, February 2015
Last month I started a new series on the blog (because I seem to fair better doing one that I only need to think about once a month) and this of course is my “A Day in the Life” series. For January I chose to do a regular day, but this month I chose to document a very special day.. going away to the cinema for Little Miss’ birthday. Her birthday was actually last month but due to one thing and another we didn’t get until last Tuesday. The photos are rubbish quality because I decided to give my dad’s point a shoot a test run and I just can’t…

A Day In The Life, January 2015
As I mentioned in my resolutions post I’m hoping to make my blog much more lifestyle, travel and personal style this year as these are the subjects that appeal to me most. So with that in mind I’m starting a new monthly series inspired by Becky & Leona, A Day In The Life. Every month I’ll take photos for a whole day and share it on my blog. This month I chose a Wednesday, a typical Wednesday. Morning. In the morning I get up and the first thing I do is make a large mug of ice coffee. It’s my one…

5 Ways to Make a Family Holiday Affordable This Summer*
In my adult life, I have become accustomed to going on holiday. I’ve given up all the extra luxuries like drinking, eating out, clothes shopping, and having a social life to be able to afford it, but it’s tough. People often ask me how I do it, and aside from sacrificing a lot of other aspects of my adult life, I shop around and make educated choices. Our next trip is to LA, I was flexible with my dates and I’m staying with friends. Yeah, it would be nice to fly direct from my closest airport and stay in a fancy hotel for a week, but in a choice between…
