Our Summer Bucket List*
Today is the first day of the six weeks summer holidays. I have been both dreading and feeling incredibly excited about this holiday. It’s LM’s first time ever being off for the whole lot since the past two years we’ve paid for her to attend pre-school but now because she’s on funding she doesn’t get anything towards her time there. The first two weeks are especially daunting because my parents are out of the country and I rely on my mum a lot, even just for adult company. So, to keep us going I’ve put together a bucket list for the summer with things we can do together (not including…

Our Summer 2016 Bucket List
For almost a week we’ve seen the sun and it’s been wonderful. My mum says we’re back to rain and freezing weather by the end of the week, which is a little heart breaking but in the mean time, I’m looking to summer and what I’d like to do this year. Inspired by Louise’s Summer Listings post, I’ve put together my own bucket list for the summer. Spend more time outside. Teach Little Miss to ride a bike. Make use of the beach on our doorstep. Have playdates for Little Miss. Take more photos. Buy garden toys as LM outgrew all hers last year. See more friends. Spend the boyfriend’s…

I travelled from London to Washington DC to New York to Niagara Falls to New Jersey then back to London. In 10 days. I stayed in lovely hotels, ate good food, spent time with some awesome…
