My Nature Table and a Family layout
Welcome to my autumnal show and tell. While gathering leaves, and enjoying the glorious recent Autumn weather, I have also been collecting various other nature items with my kids. We have found conkers, beech nuts, acorns, berries, toadstools, leaves, twigs……. We brought home a selection (but not the toadstools) and arranged them in a bowl…
iPhone Friday – using Phonto to add text
Today, on this very snowy MARCH day (when will winter ever be over? – my wee daffodils are buried under the snow!) I plan to share my favourite way to add text to an iphone photo – Phonto, but first a pic of our walk to school this morning App of the Week – Phonto…
On 24th December…..twas the night before Christmas
Well, the food is prepared, as much as it can be. There is a HUGE turkey waiting, having been Gordoned! The table is set We have had our Christmas walk – for the first time I can remember in lots of “proper” snow! New pyjamas modelled The Advent Candles have been lit, and a carol…
Day 18 – Ikea and My Own Little Rudolf
Today, having waited a whole week, I finally stopped resisting and went to the new Ikea store in Belfast. Those who don’t know me so well, may not appreciate quite what a momentous occasion this was. For nearly 20 years, since I visited my first Ikea store in England I have had a passion for…
Another day, another french Cathedral!
Our house swap in France continues, and contrary to appearances, we are not planning our days out around stunning cathedrals, but everywhere we visit seems to have one! Today our plan was to visit Reims for some shopping, as heavy rain was forcast. The rain never materialised, and by mid afternoon it was hot and…

My Morning Sunshine
My son is such a morning person, so full of energy and smiles, even first thing in the morning. This is the face that greets me each day. How can a mother resist a face like that?!! As January is now complete, I have both my layout for last week, and my month’s summary to…
The Cliffs of Moher, more from the home exchange
These cliffs are probably the most famous in Ireland, and the photos hopefully speak mostly for themselves! It was a beautiful clear sunny day, and despite warning our kids to bring extra layers as it would probably be blustery, it was actually warm, perhaps almost hot! The only thing that impressed the kids more than…
10th day of December I’m dreaming of a (red &) white Christmas
Today I am dreaming of a red and white Christmas kitchen! Following last year, and the story of roasting the turkey with the help of a broom shaft and the long awaited kitchen makeover, I have been anticipating decorating our kitchen with even more enthusiasm than usual. I will let the photos do most of…

Super Saturday
It is Saturday afternoon, and the house is quiet! Sam is having a nap, my daughters are ‘sleeping over’ at my parents house for the weekend, and my husband has gone to spend his birthday money. The weather is lovely, and once this is posted I plan to go out into the garden. Todays layout…
What I Learned this Week
I learned the following this week 1. As a dedicated blogger and photographer of everyday moments, don’t make pancakes for breakfast on Pancake Day and then forget to photograph the aforementioned pancakes before they are all eaten! 2. Enjoy the simple things with your kids – my 4 year old and I walked home from…
Funky Fish
This afternoon our kids spent the afternoon at our church learning about the Funky Fish Youth Cafe project in Cork. They baked buns, decorated fish and played all sorts of games including a variation of “Duck, duck, goose!” called “Fish, fish, shark!”. Later in the afternoon the parents and other members of our church were…
On the 19th day of December…..Ho, Ho, Ho!
Daily December blogging continues, please join me up to Christmas Eve as we celebrate the birth of Jesus, our Saviour. Last night we took our 3 kids to visit Santa at a local garden centre.

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?

Life is hectic!
This is turning out to be a very busy week, but mostly self-inflicted, so only myself to blame. I will start by sharing my pic for today, my son (again!) which I took for the first module of the online photography course. Today is the deadline for our first submissions. Here are the two other…
Our French Home from Home – our home exchange continues
One of the top advantages of house swapping is getting to stay in a real home, not an annonymous hotel room or impersonal appartment. While I am not going to show lots of photos of our hosts’ home, here are a few of the wee things I have enjoyed about this house. The gorgeuos tiled…
A Baby Gift (Bread) Basket
My photo(s) for today involve a baby girl present, and the beautiful baby I delivered it to this morning. First the gift. As this new little baby is a second child in this family, but first girl, I know I wanted to give something along a pink theme, but also something quite practical. I decided…
WFMW – very easy kids craft for Mother’s Day
Here in N Ireland it will be Mothers Day on Sunday. At our Toddler Group today, our very talented leader did a great fun craft with the kids, so I thought it was worthy of a 2nd post in one day. Required a small glass (we bought packs of 4 for 80p in Ikea) stickers,…
Weekend Round Up and more….
I am really enjoying the Ultimate Blog Party, and although I have only managed to view a fraction of the great blogs taking part, I have already discovered some new ones which I plan to return to. If you are back here for only the second time, having found me during the blog party, you…
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,
Barb
