Love a bit of Easter decor in the house. Kids are

Love a bit of Easter decor in the house. Kids are getting excited for Easter this Sunday. Are yours? It’s been such lovely weather this week and we are enjoying our Easter half term together. This shelf was made by accident when our new staircase was put in and I didn’t know really what to do with it but it’s been fun decorating for Xmas and Vday and now Easter. It’s become a little fun project for every special occasion for me to have in the house. Do you have a space you decorate for all the holidays? #lifecloseup

#AD | HAPPY APRIL FOOL’S DAY!! Did you see my stories today on the famous centre court turning purple? Gotcha ya - April Fooled you! @robinsons_uk and @wimbledon have collaborated to launch their new Robinsons Blackcurrant Double Strength squash. We are testing it out in the next few weeks to see what the whole family thinks. My kids love the blackcurrant flavour especially to quench their thirst with all the nice weather we are having for Easter half term. #Robinsons #LetThereBeFruit #aprilfoolsday #aprilfoolsday2021 #happyaprilfools #happyaprilfoolsday

Another day of Easter holidays in the sunshine tod

Another day of Easter holidays in the sunshine today. Another long bike ride and this time we packed a picnic to enjoy too. Baby O was at nursery and I got all my work done this morning early so we could get out and have some adventures. There was ice cream and chocolate and a jump in the paddling pool to cool off when we got home too. Phew, I am exhausted but in a good way. Happy midweek how’s your Easter break going? #lifecloseup #parkpicnic #picnicinthepark #picnicdate #snaphappybritmums #easterhalfterm #easterbreak #easterweek #easter2021 #bikerides #bikerider #lifecloseup #halfterm #halftermactivities #halftermbreak #halftermfun #halftermholiday

Yup...it’s March and we got the paddling pool out. When in England if the sun is shining we flock to it like seagulls to fries on the beach. Whilst I wasn’t about to take a dip, it didn’t phase mine to dive into this freezing cold paddling pool today. We have soaked up the garden fun and pray it stays nice for the rest of Easter holidays. Now we just need some friends to come join us...sadly a lot of our holidays are opposite of our friends this time 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ I hate that. Wish all school holidays were the same. Did you soak up the sun today? Anyone else dust off the paddling pool too? #lifecloseup #easterhalfterm #easter2021 #snapyhappybritmums #halfterm #halftermfun #easterbreak #halftermactivities #halftermbreak #halftermholiday #halftermholidays #halfterm2021 #halftermhappiness

#AD | PAW Patrol MOTO Pups is currently airing @NickJr Did you guess the new character yet? My kids are so excited. The new PAW Patrol MOTO Pups toy range is out too and even better than ever. Pop over to our stories and check out the MOTO HQ Playset and some of the Deluxe Vehicles that pop wheelies and more. Collect all of them and launch them together with the HQ Playset to make a full Adventure Bay rescue! PAW Patrol MOTO Pup toys are perfect for preschool children to spark their imagination and fun. All three of my kids love PAW Patrol and it just keeps getting better. Baby O has already had wheelie races between his two favorites Marshall and Chase's Deluxe Vehicles to see who is the fastest. He loves that they can launch off the HQ Playset doing a wheelie too! The HQ Playset has sounds from the hit tv series to make it all come to life. Are you going to watch the new MOTO Pups series and find out who the new character is? @PAWPatrol @SpinMaster #SpinMaster #PAWPatrol #MOTOPups

Ring around the merry-go-round...soon we will be able to garden visit and we can’t wait to see friends. How about you? I think we are all tired of the same walk each day, the same park visit, the same routine with the same people 🤦‍♀️😝And a big bonus after today the weather really is shaping up for us to enjoy it too!!!! Got any plans to soak it up? #lifecloseup

The house is back to being full with giggles and loudness, toys and snacks all day. We enjoyed our lie in and no rush to get dressed for anything this morning. Whilst we had plans to go to Dubai and are bummed about losing yet another holiday we are going to enjoy it as best we can with things slightly opening next week. A friend in the garden sounds like Dubai compare to the year we have had doesn’t it? All about the small things right? What are you doing for Easter holidays? What should you have been doing pre-covid plans? #lifecloseup

Coffee and biscuits anyone? I always need a little

Coffee and biscuits anyone? I always need a little nibble with my afternoon latte. Anyone else? It’s probably a bad habit I started a year ago in lockdown and one I probably should break now but they just pair so nicely together. These gorgeous Easter cookies were made by my mom. She is the most talented person I know. I definitely didn’t get the crafty talents from her. Wish I did. Swipe and see the detail on these. Wowzers. Plus they taste amazing. I may have had five in one go I am not going to lie. Can’t help myself I have no self control with coffee and biscuits. Do you have foods you just can’t say no to? What is your combo? #lifecloseup #coffeetime #coffeeandbiscuits #biscuitsofinstagram #cookiesofinstagram #cookiestagram #biscuitdecorating #biscuitlove #biscuits🍪 #eastertreats #eastergoodies #easter2021

Just when I think there is light coming at the end

Just when I think there is light coming at the end of a tunnel, they change the rules again. They keep giving us dates to slowly open up and we start wanting to plan things then we get knocked back down. It’s been one year today since our first lockdown. We are no nearer fear of this nightmare. And then today it’s announced they will fine people £5k if they travel abroad until end of June. Well there goes our little flame that started burning for holidays. It might keep us from going home and seeing my family if they extend that. I am desperate to go home and that’s really just thrown me tonight finding that news out. So I am trying to wrap my head around even what I will do to entertain the kids next two weeks of Easter holidays wondering will we ever be able to go on holiday again soon. Will I get back home anytime soon. It’s hard being an expat and feeling so helpless and far away from home at a time like this. I wrote a whole post (pre travel ban) this morning on our year in UK lockdown. Pop over and have a read and tell me your lockdown stories in the comments. #lifecloseup #staypositive💯 #staypostive #staypositivealways #lockdownlife🔐 #snaphapoybritmums #whyohwhy #coviddoone #lightattheendoftunnel #staypositiveinlife #staypositive😊 #staypositive➕ #stayhappy😊

One year ago tomorrow...the most scary, unknown, l

One year ago tomorrow...the most scary, unknown, life changing thing happens to us all. We were thrown into the deep end and each had a different way of staying afloat. One year later, everyone had a different story to tell, changed in various ways of thinking and (some of us even physically). There is new meanings to simple things like a walk, and a scoot. They no longer put a spark to the kids eyes because it became a daily routine just for fresh air. Life slowed down. So much was missed experiences and people and more. I am praying there really is light at the end if the tunnel and that we can use the rest of the year this year to make up for what has been taken away. I am hopeful. I have a new take on the important things in life as I am sure most do now. I reflect today that I may never forget that. That I won’t fall back into unimportant ways of living and rushing. That I will be more appreciative, be more grateful and more in the present moments with myself and my family and friends. How have you found the last year of surviving a world pandemic? #oneyearlater #lockdownover #lockdownv3 #worldpandemic #pandemiclife #pandemic2020 #pandemic2021 #covidvacccine #stayhopeful #stayingpostive #oneyearago #oneyearon #oneyearagotoday #oneyear
