Summer 2017

Well whilst you are reading this I will be near the end of my summer holiday on the island of Menorca. How much of a holiday it will be I really don’t know with 19 of us going !!! Although it will be nice to have some family time as my husband has been working away in London for the last few weeks.Hopefully some guaranteed sunshine as we haven’t had much recently here have we ?

I thought I would share a bit of what else I have been up to this summer when I wasn’t working.

July was a very busy month for me starting with my sisters Silver wedding where we celebrated with a garden party and my sister presented her husband with the surprise cruise that I had booked for them months ago. She gave him a box with bottles of coke that had the names of the destinations they are visiting which was a great idea.

We then had my nieces baby shower that myself and sisters organised and we were blessed with total sunshine and we had lots of fun with the games we played and a great day was had by all!!

I had many birthday celebrations over the first 2 weeks , we had a fantastic cowboy party for my best friends birthday which she organised herself and I have to say I think she should seriously take up party organising as it was a great family party here is a clip of one of the games !!

It was then my daughters 17th birthday we had a lovely day and after she had her first driving lesson we celebrated with afternoon tea. Extended the celebrations with a weekend away just the four of us.


If the summer couldn’t get any better my niece had a little baby boy named Oscar, I am not just saying this but he is adorable and actually made me quite broody !!!

I have just celebrated my 20th wedding anniversary which makes me feel ancient !! We went back to the restaurant that my husband proposed to me all those years ago to celebrate.

In between working and everything else we have also managed some home decorating finishing my lounge and starting on my hallway which will be completed whilst i am away.
As it is the school holidays I have also managed a few days out locally with my son.
As a lot of my customers know I plan my working hours around my local gym where I normally complete about 8 classes a week , the lady who owns the gym has decided t have 4 weeks off so rather than join another gym I decided to start jogging and I know have a new found love !!!! I have completed 5 kms most morning and I have to say I have really enjoyed it.

I now feel exhausted so I’m going to leave it now till I return.
Enjoy the rest of your summer.
