We've just seen the most beautiful horse and carriage go past our window, all done up with white and pink flowers and looking as though it was on its way to collecting a blushing bride and take her to one of the most special days in her life.It made me think about my wedding day (not that we had a horse and carriage) and I decided to hunt out some of my wedding photos to show you....Our wedding was a bit of a last minute thing, we'd been together for almost five years and were trying to decide what to do for our fifth anniversary - we were thinking of a night away or a nice meal … [Read more...]
Legoland Discovery Centre….
Anyone who reads this blog regularly will know that over the past few weeks we've had more family days out than you would think possible! Our best day by far was last Saturday when we visited the Legoland Discovery Centre at the Trafford Centre in Manchester.We were welcomed Professor Brick who taught us how you make Lego using his special machines (and with a bit of help from the kids) in his Lego factory which reminded me of Willy Wonka's Chocolate factory without the chocolate ;-).We had a quick walk though Miniland which looked fantastic although we didn't really get to spend much … [Read more...]
Brilliant beetles….
This post is part of Cathy from NurtureStore's play academy. Why don't you pop over there for more ideas,After the last two super busy weeks, Mr Fugal and I are now both back at work and our bank balance is looking rather pathetic ;-( We don't mind though because, to us, thats the reason that we are trying to be more frugal - so that we can use the money to have as much fun as possible with the kids. Anyway, tonight we decided to have a bit of a family games night and play a few of our home made games,we played with the Story Cards and the Razzle Dazzle game but the kids decided … [Read more...]

Big Momma Challenge….
Today is the last day of my two weeks off and I am strangely looking forward to work tomorrow, I always feel like this at the end of some time off because I like to get back in to our normal routine. I've decided to start Slimming World tomorrow and I've seen that a few bloggers are joining in NotSupermum's Big Momma Challenge so I thought I would jump on the bandwagon and join in aswell. I've got a fair bit to lose so I am going to take it slowly and not set myself any huge targets. Sunday - Mince and Dumplings with Roast Potatoes, carrots, peas and brocolli. I haven't decided yet if I'm … [Read more...]
What’s on your doorstep….
I am so tired. I've been off work for the past two weeks and rather than relax and take it easy, I've been busy trying to pack as much fun as possible in to our 'staycation'. It's so rare that we're all of work / school at the same time that we really wanted to make the most of it. We've been to Drayton Manor and Haggerston Castle so far and have planned a trip to the Metrocentre tomorrow and the Legoland Discovery Centre on Saturday. As well as these trips, we've been exploring our own area quite a bit and discovering new places to visit nearer to home.We live in an area of the North … [Read more...]
