Posts about our family life, you’ll get to know more about us by reading our ‘Scrapbook Loves’, Everyday Us, Sunday Scrapbook and other posts. Family posts cover all the topics that don’t really fit anywhere else!
I’m a few days late with my monthly post, not sure what happened apart from life getting in the way! But here’s what I read, watched, did etc in April. Read I read five books this month, my favourite was An American Marriage by Tayari Jones. A story of love, incarceration, betrayal and so much… Read More
Another week has shot by, and I think I wrote last weeks Sunday Scrapbook post on the train into London, so I’ll start there. London was pretty busy as it was the Marathon, so by mid afternoon there were a lot of tired looking people hobbling around wrapped up in shiny blankets looking mightily annoyed… Read More
Have I got an amazing giveaway for you? I am over the moon to offer another family the chance to win a weekend camping ticket for a family of four plus car parking. Head to the end of this post to enter if you’re too impatient but below is what you can expect from a… Read More
Another month has hurtled by but it’s been a good one for us, lots of time together for various reasons and some memories made. We took our family photos in the rapeseed field behind Granny’s house and in fact Digby (which is what the kids call her!) took the photos for us! We were on… Read More

Last weekend we spent the day in London having ‘breakfast with the bunny’ at Hard Rock Café, then strolled through Hyde Park to the Science Museum where we spent… Read More
So you’re attending another wedding. While it’s lovely to watch your friends or members of your family finally start their journey down the road of matrimony, preparing for the event can be a doozy. Among the most troubling parts of prep? Finding the right gift. You might have found yourself giving away the iconic his-and-hers… Read More
This is actually my ‘Athena and Arlo’ post for March and April, as I somehow completely forgot to publish last months photo! We’d just had a walk up near Devils Dyke and got very much blown about, so decided to head for lower ground and explore Bramber Castle, or what’s left of it! Now this… Read More
Our first half of the Easter break has been pretty nice, we’ve not been away but we have done some lovely things! We’ve also had a couple of lazy days which I think we all needed as much as the fun days out! On Sunday we tried to continue the stabliser-less bike riding that both… Read More
