Share Six Blog Circle – August 2019 | Summer Days

August at Share Six is all about {Summer Days). At the time of writing our summer has barely begun; we’re literally only a few hours in (and already the kids are bickering and asking for food constantly). However at the time of posting I am sunning it up in the French countryside! {Summer Days} are here again!

When we lived in Arizona, it felt like summer for about 85% of the year, at least it did to us Brits. Here in the UK we have to make the most of any good weather we get (and complain about it when it is too good…like today! Boy, 30C is too hot for no AC). In Arizona we had a pool and it was glorious; as soon as the weather got a little bit nice here we realised we hadn’t owned (or hadn’t needed to own) a paddling pool for five years, so quick as a flash, I made a mad dash to the local garden centre to get one!

30 Minutes in the Life – June 2019 | Brighton

Ceri-Herd-Photography-Seaside-Brighton-01

Welcome to another edition of 30 Minutes in the Life. This is a blog circle post so be sure to follow the link below to follow the circle all the way around.

Life has continued it’s roller coaster theme around here the past few months, but thankfully the stresses of relocation and buying a house are behind us, and the highs are finally and drastically outnumbering the lows.

One particular highlight this month was a day at the seaside with dear friends. It was a long-overdue reunion and despite their jet lag and a hen-do hangover on my part, it was truly a fabulous day. We spent our time together on the seafront in Brighton, we visited the Upside Down House, the doughnut on the pier and had fish n chips. There is nothing better than the British seaside.

These kids, who spent their first two years almost always together, and their smaller siblings, play together like the best of friends despite the time and distance that separates them. I hope that never changes.
