FEBRUARY ROUND UP

 

Hello lovelies, well we had January that lasted an eternity and you sneeze and February is over! 

We got up to lots of lovely things over February considering the month isn't that long though. We started the month of by having a gorgeous limited edition Lolo milkshake in Costa! It was by far the best milkshake I've ever had, I wish it was a drink that could stay forever, it would be perfect for the summer! We then went bowling, we did a wildlife watchers group event at the Wolsley centre, that was so lovely! We did a winter scavenger hunt, learned so much and made some gorgeous creations. We can't wait for Aprils as they're making rafts. 

We've been to parks, lots of dog walks, I've been teaching the kids about self care, ran them both a bath and put some orange juice in a plastic wine glass and did face masks, we talked a lot about childrens mental health too. Lawson had a girlfriend come over for tea, I did home made pizzas with them. Dan went to Austria with the lads! He had an amazing time. 

Me and Oakley met up with the gorgeous Talulah a chocolate cockerpoo! We made kindness stones and necklaces. We joined a kindness course! They did a fantastic event up the forest, the boys and me made dens, bird feeders, yoga outdoors, made wooden necklaces, planted seeds and even got to take a Hazel tree home with us to plant. The kids had their valentines disco. I went on a lovely dog walk with my grandad. I got my nails painted pretty whilst I had a week off for half term. We went to Jaspers for the first time which is a gorgeous bakery. We also visited Pillaton farm for the first time, the boys absolutely loved that. They had a huge jumping pillow, a lovely park and a great cafe that sold gorgeous coffee and pizzas and desserts. 

We went to Lichfield, we did Go Ape! Oscar was a lot braver than me and Lawson but I'm still super proud of us both that we took part. Oscar thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to go back! We visited Hawkstone Follies, the most stunning place for a nature walk just outside of Shrewsbury. We then went straight from there to Holyhead where Dan was working away. We stayed in his holiday home and absolutely loved it. We went back to Aber Falls which is breathtaking. We went to a National trust and lots of beach walks. It was truly the best half term ever! Then it was back to crap work and school! Roll on the next half term in five weeks! 

Book I'm reading this month - Call of the penguins Hazel Prior. I know I failed the one book a month but I have 4 chapters left so at least I'll have a new book by next months round up! I managed to read loads when we went to Wales because it's away from all the distractions at home. I've really enjoyed this book and don't want it to end! I would highly recommend this and the first book in her collection. 

 Music I've loved and listened to on Spotify - Coldplay and Dermet Kennedy. I also usually have heart radio on. 

Products I've loved this month - I've really fallen back in love with L'Oreal Infallible foundation, it always takes me back to my youth, even the smell transports me back to my mates house getting ready for a night on the town! But it gives you such a flawless base. Its a drugstore find so totally affordable too. 

Films I've Watched - Jack the reacher 3/5 Mrs Doubtfire 5/5 Titanic 5/5

I watched Jack the reacher because Dan had put it on and I just continued to watch it when he fell asleep, there was gripping parts but wasn't anything special. Mrs Doubtfire and Titanic because of Lawson! He's obsessed with Titanic at the moment and has watched it 6 times this year already! Mrs Doubtfire is just a classic I had to get him to watch and he loved it! Obviously. 

Tv shows I've watched - Happy Valley and Sort your life out.

I haven't really watched much TV at all this month! I love Stacey Solomons Sort your life out show, it's just everything I adore all in one programme. Then Happy Valley me and Dan was very late to the party with this one and binge watched all three series this month and wasn't disappointed until it ended anyway! I absolutely loved this show so much and I'm so gutted its over, Sarah is fantastic! 

What did you get up to in February? Hope you all had a lovely Half term. x
