I can see the SEA!
We are about halfway through our 5 weeks here on the north coast of Northern Ireland. Despite spending most days by the sea – parks, beaches, walks, drives, cliff top castles – all within sight of the sea, never more than a few miles from the coast – it took a 20 pence in a…

When Irish Eyes Are Smiling……
In this week when we have all been celebrating St Patrick’s Day I have this layout to share with you. The digital scrapbooking kit I used is by Gina Marie Huff at Weeds and Wildflowers Designs and is called Wearin’ O’ The Green.If you want to win one of 3 copies of this kit, leave…
It’s 2021 – only a day or two late!
It’s 2021! It’s 2021 and I’m only a day or two late! Not one for New Year’s resolutions (or “revolutions” as my son used to call them). With so many changes and uncertainties, hoping for a better 2021 but my trust is in God who is bigger than any virus. I am holding on to…
What’s been happening in my world, and another layout from the wedding
Firstly – thanks to everyone who has posted on my blog so far. It is so encouraging to see, and I am amazed – especially when I have had comments from designers who I am a bit in awe of! Eventually I hope to be up to creating a freebie – but not just yet!…

A double Show and Tell this week.
This week I had no trouble in finding something to Show and Tell, in fact I have two! First, I promised to share the results of our pottery painting evening at Eden Pottery. I really enjoyed the evening with friends from church. It was great “crack” as we say here (nothing to do with illegal…
On 7th December – Christmas Cards
Yesterday afternoon, we tackled and completed our Christmas card list. It is always something I approach with mixed emotions – going through the list, it brings friends and family to mind who we may not have seen for a while, those who have had a wonderful year (weddings, births, significant birthdays) and those for whom…
Jungle Speed – review a great game for all the family
I was recently contacted about reviewing Jungle Speed by a toy company. Although the game was sent to me for review, the opinions are all my own (or my kids)!!! It is portable, easy to set up, relatively easy to explain to all ages, there is a bit of skill and concentration required, or you can…
Shopping in Atlanta
My friends/readers know I love to shop, and want to share a few of the shops I loved during my recent trip to Atlanta. All photos taken on my iphone – so sorry for the quality. Thanks to Nuala, our first hotel was located right beside Pier 1 Imports and The Container Store. I have…

My Layout for Friday and some shopping
Well – this should have been my LO for Thursday but something happened with the ‘saving’ of it – and it disappeared into the abyss. So here it is again (well sort of the same). I used mostly the various amazing kits created in memory of Miles. Check out this link https://christinareneedesigns.blogspot.com/ to find out…

Irish Dancing Dresses and Cousins
We had some tired and grumpy kids following a late night at the GB Display, and losing an hour as the clocks changed forward to British Summer Time. However, we still had a very enjoyable afternoon with my brother-in-law, wife and 2 daughters today. Both their lovely curly haired daughters learn Irish dancing, and today…

Review of Bananagram – fun family game
I bought this Bananagram game at Britmums Live conference in London last month for a number of reasons:
- 1. It was promoted as a game for all ages (from 7 up)
- 2. It was Olympic 2012 special addition and I was in London and promised to bring home a souvenir
- 3. It looked fun while being educational too
- 4. Easily transported for family holidays
We have already played it with friends and family …. and it has been very popular.
The rules are easy, and it can be fun working in team with some of the younger players
The frequent request on completing a game is “just one more game please”
At Britmums I did see a number of other games from makers of Bananagrams and I would be certainly keen to try some more. This game was purchased by me, and all opinions expressed are entirely my own – promise!
What is your favourite family game?

Day 23 – He’s Not Home for Christmas Anymore!
A lot of sad faces in our house tonight, poor George, our ginger cat, will be spending his Christmas with the vet. And his Christmas Day present will probably be the relief of being catheterised again! Poor thing still having problems, but in the best place. Also, in comparison to some really big issues facing…
I Heart Faces – At the Beach photo challenge
This week on I Heart Faces the photo needs to be of a portrait on a beach. As I have spent the last 4 weeks within a mile or two of numerous beaches here in Northern Ireland, the main problem was choosing just ONE! I have gone for this one – my eldest daughter, jumping…
The summer has begun!
School finished on Thursday, and we were up here at the cottage by early afternoon on Friday. We seemed to have brought some warm sunshine with us, and not wanting to take it for granted, we headed to the beach on Friday night for our traditional fire log, marshmallows, hot chocolate and photo-shoot! We went…
On the 6th day of December….a Christmas craft market and how honesty paid off.
This morning I had the opportunity to go (child-free) by train into Belfast to St George’s Christmas Market. It was a combination of food and gifts (mostly jewelery it seemed) and I enjoyed browsing, taking a few photos, and making a few purchases. This is the first year I have managed to attend, but the…
Looks like a hoot! I can’t remember the last time we played a game, so sad! We hope to go camping in the fall and then we will do that – my Mr. bought a Stratego game at a yard sale, he has fond childhood memories of it so guess who will be learning? Have you ever heard of it?
Thanks for sharing!
Blessings,
