    The Disney Princess Tag

    April 10, 2016 /

    I’m in the middle of editing photos from our stays at Port Orleans French Quarter and Riverside which is taking a lot longer than I thought (I’m going to review both and do a post about Little Miss’ Charlotte Le Bouff dress as we did a photo shoot at the resort). So today I’m bringing you the Disney Princess Tag. I was tagged today by Hannah of Courage and Kindness, you can read her answers here. Some of the questions threw me a bit but I’ve answered the best I can. Remember this is princess and princess movies only! 1. Which Princess do you like the least? I really don’t…

    Walt Disney World – Epcot Flower & Garden Festival 2016

    April 8, 2016 /

    Welcome to the first post compiled of photos and information from my 4 week trip to Florida. Over all I spent a whopping 23 days on property out of my 28 (although two days were travel days) and I spent a decent amount of time at each park, however most of my time was spent at Magic Kingdom, because that’s the only place LM can see Peter Pan. Anyway, since the Flower & Garden Festival is still going on at Epcot until May I thought it would be relevant to write about it for people heading out to Walt Disney World between now and then, or are looking to venture…

    Quality shoe options for your boyfriend!*

    April 5, 2016 /

    Are you one of those girlfriends that believe in the age old shoe superstition? The one that says “buy a shoe for your boyfriend and he will walk out of your life”?  It is time to firmly move away from that camp.  Many breakup stories show deep seated issues that go way beyond a pair of shoes and shoes make perfect gifts anyway. Imagine how much better he would look when he steps out in perfect shoes. You also don’t have to splurge your entire savings as online with places like english-brands.co.uk who sell John White Shoes and other great designer brand for good prices mean you can get good…

    What Little Miss Read & World Book Day 2016

    March 5, 2016 /

    On Thursday it was World Book Day. As a kid, World Book Day was always one of my favourite days of the year because not only could we go to school dressed as our favourite book character (and back then no one went in store bought costumes) but you also got a £1 book token and at that age, that was a lot! And now it’s Little Miss’ turn to take part. In the “baby” room they just have to take their favourite book, but in the bigger room they got to dress up as their favourite character, just like I used to! So, in the back of my mind…
