Travel Booking

We so rarely get a snow day in Bristol and my gosh did we need this pick me up. It’s funny how a flurry of snow can bring so much joy. We woke at 6am on Sunday as I had forgotten that I had ordered an online grocery shop a month ago (and 6 was the only slot I could get). So I was totally confused to open the door in my pj’s and see snow! It felt like a beautiful dream, especially in this time when the little moments mean so much. We headed to our local park which was full of people enjoying the weather. (Obviously everyone was socially distanced as we were all in the such a big area out in the open) just seeing people so happy and having fun with their families was such a pick me up. I’ve been feeling like I was hitting a brick wall with lockdown 2021, the constant rain and all the feelings that January often brings.

Hi how are you all? It’s been a while and honestly I’m not sure anyone is coming to my blog looking for my Christmas day pictures. This blog is still a scrap book of our life though so honestly I think it will make me angsty if I look back and this years was missing! I almost didn’t take any photos this year because, well this year was a little different hur? We tried our best to bring the same energy as previous years and although that was pretty impossible we were still super thankful to be happy and healthy. There were unexpected positives for a very different type of holiday though. I certainly felt less pressure and more gratitude for the simple things. I’m writing this post late January 2021 so I know that the new year didn’t wave a magic wand over all of 2020 events but if there is anything I want to keep sight of its enjoying the simple things. Wilf’s presents involved 90% Pokemon appreciation and Mabli finally got her own Lego sets. The kids t...
