Karate on

It was last year when my kids started joining Karate after school club where we paid each child £5 per session. It was okay until recently we found a better place for them to learn martial arts. It was when my son's classmates invited him over for a birthday party and there we saw tons of trophies from his big brother's achievement throughout his Karate lessons. So, we ask where his big brother had his lessons and then we found out and meet the martial arts instructor who happen to teach Lessons every Monday night at Hookwood Memorial Hall (where my son's friend's birthday party was held) and so we sign-in our two. It's a little more than we paid for their first lessons before but looks a lot better perspective than what they had at school. Imagine how my kids learnt a lot just after few sessions? And they are much excited to go for their lessons each week too. The amount of training and warm-up they do before they even start the lessons are paid-off the cost already. Oh yeah, Daddy and I are very happy finding this place. Too bad, I can't always come and watch them for it is my work day. But, next week is my holiday and I'll be able to come for the first time. I so look forward to see my karate kids on the move.

Spontaneous trip to the Beach

Throughout the summer, this was our only time that we are able to go to the beach. During our summer short break, going to the beach was a part of our plan but unfortunately the weather was not up for it and so, we proceeded to our plan B. Yeah, my life was wrap up planning for a day in the beach sunbathing and such that is why I bought so many swimwear this year. Shame I wasn't able to wear any of it apart from few times sunbathing in my backyard, lol. Okay, just one day we spontaneously meeting my friend in Brighton and by that we got there we saw how glorious that day and the beach side was absolutely packed with crowd of people sunbathing and bb-ing. Such a shame we weren't ready and no swimwear with us, whatsoever. The kids enjoyed playing the rocks by the seashore instead while chit-chatting with my friend and his friends. Ah, hopefully next year we can plan better for a trip to the beach before the summer ends.

Lucky number? Nah, It's the exact time right now but I got up about half an hour ago because I'm feeling so hungry. This is what I always feel early in the morning it's because I am nursing my little one. Anyway, I slept earlier last night and so I woke up a little earlier too. It's better this way as I get some time for myself doing online task. Oh, the hubby got up early too preparing for his overnight trip to Midlands. Wish, we could go with him but the kids have school so, we needed to stay. Okay, before I go get my breakfast I have to check out some matter matters that been bugging me lately. My friend and I exchange conversation regarding the top 10 truck gps at the source and I am determine to prove her wrong. Of course, I have to check the right information first before sending her the link to read. Okay, I shall update soon.

Coffee break...

I'm not a coffee drinker but there are times that I tend to give in to my cravings especially when I see someone having a cup of coffee and the smell of it is enough to make me have one. Occasionally, I do drink coffee - a decaf one.

Coupons are ways of saving...

Lately, me and hubby spend more than we should as if we have loads of extra cash. Having move to a new home only means a non-stop expenses. After spent a fortune in our sun room now we are facing another renovation, our kitchen. I could say that it was unfortunate to have our floor flooded caused by plumbing after my youngest dropped few stuff in to the toilet. But in the other hand, I can also see it as a way to a better kitchen. Yes, just a week ago when hubby and the insurance company finally agreed about having a real wooden floor as our choice. Got my wish in the end although it cost us extra but hey, real wood is way better than laminate floor. With all our expenses lately and looking at our bank balance, I think its best to save up some lowe’s coupons in the future. I can see how its going to be a big help for us. Our plans of making our home a better place to live is to renovate each rooms bit by bit. And that being said, we could use lowe's coupons and such to help us spend less. Looks like they're offering a great deal in any aspect of house renovations and home fixing. Hoping to save up more...

Roman ruins in Caerleon Wales

My husband is the one who planned all our summer trip. West country was our choice in the end as we haven't finish exploring this part of the country. Plus, we got to visit Granny (hubby's grandmother) and let her spend the time with her great grand kids. It wasn't the grandest break but nonetheless, we had a great time. Spend our first 3 days with Granny in Devon and explored few places out there before we head out to a bit of Wales visiting Roman Legionary Museum in Caerleon. I was so amazed to see this Aphitheatre that has been there many hundred of years as well as the Barracks

Party invitations

It was about 5 weeks ago when I was given an invites from a friends daughter's coming birthday celebration. Funnily enough, my son is one of the 7 sweets - whatever that means, lol. Obviously the celebrant is turning 7 yrs old and so it seems a big birthday party. The invitation is grandly made and uniquely design for a special girl like her. After seeing it, my daughter asked if she could design her own or pick her own style of invitations. Luckily enough, there are tons of options at party invitations from invitationbox.com, I might just ordered her birthday invites there which is easy and hassle free. She would love the designs or she could create her own - whichever she prefer. I better plan for it now to think that I only have 7 weeks to go...how time flies!

Summer P'shoot

Summer this year was a lot better than last year, weather wise - for we are showered with so much sunshine, (though we are paying it off now. Its the first summer that I could remember where it has more dryer days, ever. Oh yes, I'm so much happier that I was able to make the most of it with my love ones - visiting and touring one places after another in the west country of England. A summer's maybe over but it has left me with happy memories ;-)...'til next year again! Though the adventures doesn't stop here..it continues to......FALL...

Unique birthday gifts for her...

I'm after for the lastest deals in personal gifts creations since they have all these great offers available lately like 20% off in your first orders or if spending particular amount. Personal creations seems the perfect place for buying unique gifts for all occasions. Finding these offers are great as I'm looking for a nice special presents to give to a friend's daughter. She's turning 7 years old next Sunday. It seems to be that 7 birthday's a big celebration therefore I've got to buy something really valuable that she can keep forever. So glad to stumble across personal creations and I'm loving all their varieties of wonderful personal made gifts. I'm pondering the "Bangle bracelet" or the "name framed photo collage"...thought still looking for more inspirations as I still have time.

Hanging Stone...

Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument located in the English county of Wiltshire, about 2.0 miles (3.2 km) west of Amesbury and 8 miles (13 km) north of Salisbury. One of the most famous sites in the world, Stonehenge is composed of earthworks surrounding a circular setting of large standing stones. It is at the centre of the most dense complex of Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments in England, including several hundred burial mounds. - source: Wikipedia

Visited one of the world's oldest monument again [Stonehenge] for the 4th basis and this time with my 3rd child in tow. His first ever visit to the place but although he won't understand any of this yet but one day he'll appreciate it all through pictures. Photography creates happy memories...
