Sundays are all about spending time together as a family. One of our favourite places to visit is Burghley House and I’m sure you can see why. We had a lovely (if not slightly chilly) family walk there today.
Before the Summer holidays began, my friend Karin and I sat down and booked dates in to get together. We have learnt from past holidays that if we don’t do this we can go all Summer with our free dates not coinciding and then the children end up disappointed that they haven’t seen each other. … Read more

Thank you to our lovely friends Karin, Ella and Sam – we had a lovely day today (although my legs are aching a little this evening!). It was a shame that MummyManda, Popsy and Boo couldn’t join us but hopefully, we’ll see you next week xx
