I couldn’t decide how to do todays posts… my dad and Anthony both deserved some words and photographs and so in the end I decided to give them a post each. This comes on behalf of Robyn and Katie too. Anthony is a wonderful Daddy to our girls, a really great Daddy. The love that [...]

It is no secret that my Daddy is my hero. Here we are together when I was aged 11. He is not only my dad but a great friend too. We laugh together nearly every day and I know he is always there if I need him. I feel so lucky to be able to [...]

Just a quick post as I’m not really feeling too well. I seem to have a tradition that says “Mel must have a sore throat at Easter!”. Ah well, off to bed in a bit and hopefully I’ll feel better in the morning. I just wanted to share some pictures from our Easter celebrations at [...]

Anthony is listening to some very cheesy music from the ’80′s this evening. Music from 1989 to be precise (I’m not sure why that year inparticular!). In 1989 I was in my last year of primary school, we then moved house and in the September of that year I began my first year at secondary school. It [...]

I love New Years Day, especially when I’ve had a lovely quiet evening in the night before, no hangovers and extreme tiredness here! The day feels fresh, there is anticipation in the air and you can sense the new beginnings that comes with a brand new year. We have just taken down all of our decorations. [...]
Well, we are about ready! Yummy things have been prepared to eat, presents are wrapped and have been sent to Santa, we have all we need from the shops, we’ve been to the doctors with Katie and got antibiotics and an inhaler lol (thankfully she is fine in herself, she just can’t shake off this [...]
On Tuesday my baby girl turned 3. We had a really wonderful day! We gave her a Baby Annabell doll which has been a huge hit. Nanny & Grandad have got her a pram for her to go in for Christmas! She was at playgroup in the morning and we sent in a birthday cake [...]
I’m so happy right now. We have had a worrying week as we were not sure when we would get the money owing to us from Anthonys work. With Katies 3rd birthday next week and then Christmas obviously it was a worry that we could do without! We tried our hardest to keep positive though [...]
Nights out have been lacking in 2009. A combination of no money (this is becoming a theme in this blog challenge!) and also the fact that I don’t have many friends here, not ones that I go out with of an evening anyway. For Anthonys birthday in October though we treated ourselves. Anthony was working and we [...]
