With Christmas 2020 around the corner I thought it would be fun to have a look back at Christmas 2019. Partly because I need to dig out the photo to jog my memory of the decor we have but also because it was our first Christmas on the avenue and I want to be able to remember it.
This year my birthday weekend fell right when the Beast from the East was hitting Devon. I couldn’t believe the amount of snow we had for March, it’s never snowed anywhere near my birthday month before so that was pretty surreal...
This past weekend was a great one. I have to admit it has been a while since Ollie and I rediscovered our childlike wonder and just enjoyed ourselves, as it happens a day out of the city did just that. Richmond is outside the city right?...

We finally got some snow! It seems like forever since we had a good snowfall, it must have been at least seven years. Ollie and I rarely have a lie in but today we were in desperate need of one after a hectic...
After a lovely weekend with family we headed to Cheltenham to stay in No.38 The Park. As you can see from the display of balloons Ollie went all in with the birthday celebrations.
