A few weeks ago we were asked if we wanted to have a lovely weekend away with Park Resorts. It sounded like a great idea to have a cheeky weekend away before the madness of the last few weeks of term hit us so we said yes, chose the lovely sounding Cayton Bay Holiday Resort in North Yorkshire and set off on our travels one rainy Friday at the start of July. We're not usually bothered by the weather so the rain didn't really worry us - we just packed wellies and rain coats along with the scooters and the Summer Bag.Before I start, I don't have as many photos as I would usually have to … [Read more...]

#WeLoveWales – by Miss and Master F….
In the two week's school holiday last month we went to Wales. We've never been to Wales before so we were very excited.After that, we stayed in a castle (Ruthin Castle.) At the castle,we saw some peacocks 3 males and 5 female.The males were trying to impress the women by showing their feathers and shaking them. We helped a member of staff feed them bread and they ate out of our hands. We liked that bit.The room was amazing, however, did you know we had our own room. It was right next door to Mam and Dad's room and we watched a cop show on the TV but then Mam … [Read more...]
#WeLoveWales – Our Day at Llyn Brenig….
I love travelling and exploring new places with the kids and we try to get away as often as our budget allows us to which isn't nearly as often as we like if I'm honest!As I've said a few times, we're planning to spend more time travelling in the UK over the next few years rather than going abroad so when we were invited to visit Wales for a few days last month we jumped at the chance. There are so many beautiful areas in our country that we want to explore and although we'd never been to Wales before, it's somewhere that we've said lots of times that we'd like to visit.Miss … [Read more...]

A Classic Day out with the Family….
When I saw the Ugg Australia 'Classic Day Out' competition, I knew exactly what we would pick as a family as our favourite day out - a day at London Zoo!We love London Zoo, despite living at the opposite end of the country and I think we've been every year since we first visited about four years ago. We have a special reason to visit the zoo now as we adopted a monkey for Master Frugal last year for his Birthday so he likes to go along and make sure the keepers are doing a good job looking after his baby, Bounty. Last year when we were in the monkey section he found … [Read more...]
