Or the no shoes on the carpet rule was flouted yet again (always when they have muddy shoes on!). Add into this mix the run up to Christmas with friends and family joining us to celebrate. More food and drinks consumed around the house and it wouldn’t be Christmas without a square or two of Chocolate for breakfast. … View Post

Just like that our summer adventure days are over. It is time for us to blast back to reality, with the children returning to school and nursery.
