This week's roundup is a little late: we've been camping. It transpires they don't have internet in Coppices. I am still reeling. Sunday: a super day starting with time on the Beach with Lord, Lady and the Hon. S, then lunch and a doze on the sofa. I love a doze on the sofa. An easy journey back to Bromley where The Girls stayed up late- they shouldn't have had a doze on the sofa- until I had finished blogging. Monday was … [Read more...]
Project 366 Week 26
Sunday on Week 26 saw us travel home from Bruges: another journey through the magic tunnel, another few hours spent happily travelling in silence whilst our Girls watched Barbie on DVD. We had such a wonderful weekend that we are just itching to do it all again. On Monday The Girls went to dancing with The Au Pair whilst I followed on. After a quick turn around at home we headed back into Bromley to watch The Tiger Who Came to Tea at the … [Read more...]
Project 366 Week 25
Are we halfway there yet? This week saw the longest day so I'm assuming that it's all downhill from here. Although that means I have less than six months to achieve my aims for this year so I'd better get a wriggle on! … [Read more...]
Family: The Gallery Week 102
I love this week's theme. It seems perfectly fitting after a weekend that we have devoted to family, celebrating LBG's birthday on Saturday with a fairly epic party, and then reveling in the awesomeness of the man we call Daddy on Father's Day. … [Read more...]
Project 366 week 24
It's been the Back to School week, which begins the Countdown-to-the-holidays at DG Manor. It began with a bang and the urgent need for shoes, as LBG appeared to have grown an entire shoe size in the week that we'd been in France. Then we drove home to Bromley, to the house that had literally been finished hours before we left it to go to France seven days before. It felt like a new home. Everything was so new and clean: the playroom looked … [Read more...]
Project 366 Week 23
I can hardly believe it, but our week in France went by in a heartbeat. It was such a lovely time for us all, relaxing in each other's company, catching up on sleep, spending time together. Sunday was spent by the pool, after a brief trip to the local supermarket, recovering from the previous day's driving. We unsurprisingly all feel asleep ridiculously early. … [Read more...]
Project 366 Week 22
As May comes to an end, so does the #SnapHappyBritMums Challenge that I have been taking part in. You can see my reponse to the daily photo prompts on my Facebook page. In other news, this has been the last week before half-term, which means we have all been trying to do too much in the little time we have before our Eurotunnel crossing on Saturday morning. DH is snowed under at work and we have barely seen him. The painters are trying to … [Read more...]
