    Weekend in the Peak District

    August 5, 2016 /

    Last weekend it was my other halves birthday so we packed up his car and headed to the Peak District, just the two of us. Long distance relationships are are so hard and I’m not the greatest at them, in fact, I’m the worst. So three days alone with him away from it all was nothing short of bliss. I’m sure no one wants to know the mundane things we got up to just talking and enjoying each other’s company, so instead I’m just sharing some photos because the Peak District really is a beautiful part of the world, one that I haven’t really had the chance to see. This…

    #IWoreWhatNow with George at Asda*

    August 2, 2016 /

    I wore what now? Growing up my parents took a lot of photos, and I mean a lot. The amount of photo albums we have from my birth to my early teens (when I suddenly hated having my photo taken and not much has changed since!) is ridiculous and I dread to think how much money my parents spent on having photos developed from Click. However, it’s still so much fun to settle down with Little Miss and show her snaps from my childhood. We didn’t have much money growing up but we sure had fun! One of the things I always consider there must be a massive difference in…

    Must Fastpass Rides at Walt Disney World for Under 5s*

    August 1, 2016 /

    So far, every trip I’ve taken to Walt Disney World as an adult has been with my under 5 year old. Our first visit Little Miss had barely turned three when we went and still she managed to do so much! This is why in the old debate of “how young is too young for a Disney holiday?” (it’s a real debate, look it up) in my personal opinion and experience, if your kid is of a good temperament, go from an age where they can really experience the magic. Little Miss went to Disneyland Paris at two and she loved it, she probably would have loved it at the…

    Looking Back on July 2016

    July 31, 2016 /

    Yay, July is just about over. I really did not get on well mentally with July as I wanted, with having 5 weekends and not spending as much time with my boyfriend as I had in May & June I really struggled with feeling lonely, anxiety and paranoia. I saw him the first weekend and as this post goes live I’ll be in the Peak District celebrating his birthday with a weekend break together. I just may be in the private hot tub. I got so used to seeing him all the time that it was a definite shock to the system this month. But hopefully June will be better.…

    Sometimes, you want to explore a new place as slowly as possible. You can take the time to wander the streets and duck into any restaurant or store that looks interesting. However, you don’t always have time to do that. Sometimes you only have a short amount of time through circumstance or you might plan a day trip. If you want to get a quick glimpse of a city or region, a sightseeing tour is a perfect way to take in all the highlights. San Diego in California has a lot to offer, and you can plan the ideal trip there, whether it’s for your family, church group, or friends.…
