Family fun in the park and a bit of photography thrown in..

by littlegemsdiaries

Pittville park is a hidden gem pretty much in the centre of Cheltenham, Gloucestershire- UK. So many people have said to me to go and check it out, but sadly in the last two years we had never got round to it -until now. (Thats shameful as it is only 20 minutes away!) Well to be honest, I  wrote this post a few months...

3 Simple Hairstyles That Anyone Can Do…

by littlegemsdiaries

  As a Hair and Make-up artist I very rarely spend time on myself. My hair is either slapped back into a ponytail or worn down with a few waves run through with straighteners. I suppose it is mainly down to laziness and more importantly time. I love it when I see other people with gorgeous braids and I get annoyed with myself as...

I have taken a few days off the gram as I have not felt myself. I felt so bad. I took myself off to the doctor’s who then referred me to the hospital for some blood tests. I think the virus I picked up a few weeks ago had totally wiped me out. I have never felt so exhausted. Today I felt much better thank god although I have not stopped. Yesterday I made it a mission to clear out my daughter April’s bedroom. It took 4 hours of graft with 6 bags ready for the charity shop😆 Off to look for a Christmas tree tomorrow, as my husband reckons our artificial one died a death a few years ago. I was hoping to be a bit more frugal this Christmas and recycle most of the decorations 😳 #Christmas#christmasdecor#frugalchristmas#christmasonabudget#savemore#savyshopping
So many people have started putting their Christmas trees up. I seriously find that weird. To me, Christmas starts in December, however I couldn’t resist this star that I stumbled across in @homesense_ukie #christmasdecor#christmasinteriors#christmasstyling#christmasessentials#home#homestyling#homeinteriors#homesense#
Autumn is such a pretty season. I love the colours of the leaves on the trees and the ground. I took this photo of the dog on Sunday. I was desperate to capture her in all her glory ( mud ) in the leaves. I have to confess I am a serial worrier. I literally worry about everything it’s pathetic. I have been really unwell lately with a viral chest infection that I just can’t seem to shift. It makes me panic about my health and how vulnerable we all are. Anyway enough sounding paranoid.. it’s important to embrace nature.. Get out there and see what’s around, it truly is beautiful .. #nature#beauty#autumn#seasons#enjoywhatsaround#breath#calm#stopworrying#stopbeinganxious#liveyourlife#takeitallin#dogsofinstagram
We went to a truly spectacular display at April’s school in the village tonight. Apparently the guys that put on the display used to do Big Brother. It was really fantastic.. #fireworks#display#villageschool#socolourful#bigbrotherfireworks#fireworknight#saturdaynight#weekendvibes
A visit to Brize Norton to look at the airport. I maybe flying out with the military next year to go and see Chris. I have never in 18 years of being a military wife used military aircraft. I am pretty nervous to be honest as I will be flying out with the kids on my own 😳 #militaryairport#militarywife#visittobrizenorton#soloparentingsoon#anxiousflyer
My best friends that I miss everyday.. Sadly Lisa passed away a year ago today. It still feels raw and even when I look at this picture I well up. She was such a special person. No frills, no filter just honest. You always knew where you stood with her. She would quite often tell me off for moaning and in her words ‘ to get a grip’. I miss that. I miss her voice. I miss her advice. I miss our birthday meet ups. I miss her truth. God bless you Lisa untill we meet again... #friendship#loss#fuckyoucancer#bestfriend#specialfriendship#missyoueverydaydearfriend#rip#godblessyoursoul
