Why is it when I plan anything someone gets ill! This time its me though and Im not a happy bunny about it – walking round Hamsterley Forest hunting down the Gruffalo has given me the flu…as if falling in mud and a one and a half mile hike at the speed of a 2 year old who needs to know what every rock is doing (why? but why? yes but why?)
Other than that this week has been another good one, lots of work and late nights, days out and planning for the future, I am so excited with some of the projects lined up and can’t wait to share!
OK, linking up as always with Coffee, Work, Sleep, Repeat for this weeks #LittleLoves…
READ
Amelia loves Teletubbies so we have yet again been reading her interactive book, I really need to get back to doing some adult reading but there just doesn’t seem to be enough time in the day!
WATCHED
One of the things we enjoy watching as a family on a Saturday night is Ninja Warrior! The kids love it when the contestants big themselves up then fall at the first hurdle, they get so excited and scream encouragement when they are getting close to the end and its almost like a physical sigh when you see them press that final buzzer – its as if you have gone the course with them! lol Imagine our delight when a new boxset was uploaded to Netflix – Ultimate BeastMaster! Its like an elite Ninja Warrior, with contestants from around the world competing to become the ultimate beastmaster the course is extreme to say the least! One of the good things about it too is that the fabulous Terry Cruz is a presenter – that man is too funny!
MADE
I made a house! Actually it was made of cake but thats still an accomplishment yes? I travelled down to London on Wednesday to spend the day with a lot of other bloggers, L and C Mortgage company and the Cookery School to create a house cake, have you seen their new advert where it says ‘mortgage is a piece of cake’ – well, yes, that! There will be a full post coming soon but here is a sneak of the house the following morning once the kids had decemated it!
WORE
I found a navy and white spot raincoat in the back of my wardrobe this past week so thought i should start wearing it again, reached in the pocket and found a recipt from the last time I had it on…. May 28th 2015! I think I need to rotate my clothes more!
HEARD
Have you heard theres a new round up editor at Britmums!? I am the Large Family round up editor and cant wait to share all the big family stories, so if you have at least 4 children or live in a blended family, maybe you have multiple generations living under one roof – whatever the reason we want to hear from you so drop me a message to debbie@countryheartandhome.com with links to your large family blog posts!
and LASTLY
So far this past week I have won a £200 voucher, a £100 Tesco voucher and 2 tickets to a launch night including live DJ, goodie bag and beauty treatments. I think i’m going to have to actively start comping again, I forgot how good those winning email confirmations feel!
XOXO
Debbie
