Milestone day today, my youngest daughter started Pre School... It was emotional for me but she loved every minute! 

One of my daughters friends was upset at school yesterday, so this morning in the mad panic to get ready for school she wanted to make her a card "to be a good friend" - I couldn't say no and we made time!

A bonfire party in our garden, was it for the children or more for the adults - I'm not so sure?!

Loving the beach when there's only us on it...

Happy eleventh wedding anniversary to my husband, where has that time gone?!

A happy and enjoyable first day back at school for my daughter, which makes for a happy Mum!

Back to school tomorrow, it's been a good summer - lots of happy memories.

I haven't been to Great Yarmouth for many years, and I couldn't believe that 'Joyland' complete with Snail Ride is still there!  I can remember it 30 years ago when I holidayed near Yarmouth with my family - and today I rode it with my 5 year old and it was just as much fun!





BeWILDerwood near Wroxham, Norfolk is a magical place to visit as we found out today.  Great fun for children and adults alike!

Today just goes to prove that a five year old doesn't need electronic games and tv to be happy. My daughter wanted to make a 'nature stick', taking flowers and leaves that we found in the garden and binding them onto a stick with string - oh how I love that dear sweet girl.

A final cake blog for a while. Rather proud of my efforts for my daughters 5th birthday party at the weekend, a great time was had at the fancy dress tea party. I thoroughly enjoyed all the preparations, party planning would make an ideal career, maybe one day!

My gorgeous eldest daughter is 5 today.  My friend and companion, I blinked and she got all grown up.

A birthday wish for my mum, who is always there for me. And I honestly don't know what I would do without her. x

This one is for my Dad, Happy Birthday to him today.  We have spent many a happy sunny afternoon looking at this scene, lots of love.

At least one little person finds the rain interesting! I just love the back of her sweet little head, and now she's walking its often the view I see the most of!  Have a good weekend.

Monday has been as they say, 'one of those days', so to relax with this late on in the afternoon was heavenly.

A first birthday cake for my very special baby girls birthday party at the weekend. Where has a year gone? You are already growing so much and becoming such a beautiful little person.

These sweet little feet belong to our one year old walker!  Happy Birthday baby girl, you complete our family and are loved so very much...

All ready for my baby girl's first birthday tomorrow, where has that year gone?!

School broke up today, slower starts in the mornings and less clock watching for two weeks - happy days!  Have a good weekend.
