Catch A Falling Leaf
It shouldn't really be that hard should it?
"Can you sprinkle some leaves over his head please? It'll be a fabulous Autumn photo!" said I to Mr. TBaM last weekend at Lacock Abbey.
The Alternative Advent Calendar – National Kindness Day
It was around this time last year that I heard one of the families in our school was on the verge of being made homeless. Through a few unfortunate circumstances, they had gone from a middle-class family with two working parents and three happy children, to divorced and jobless with bailiffs at the door and children who didn't know where their next meal was coming from.
Having taught all three girls, it was more than I could bear, but the only thing I personally could do to help was donate to the local foodbank that I knew they would use. Since then The Boy and I have been food shopping in Aldi several times and we make an effort to take it to the church, where they explain the foodbank to him and he sees how the process works.
Earlier this week we went shopping again.

Days 306 – 312 of Project 365
Disney On Ice Presents… Magical Ice Festival
I've long wanted to see Disney On Ice and have been waiting for The Boy to be old enough to enjoy it. As he was an avid viewer of the last series of Dancing On Ice, finally my wish can come true!
Even better this year is that Disney have added Anna, Elsa and Olaf from Frozen to the line up!
Days 299 – 305 of Project 365
Photography Workshop: Painting With Light
I was very lucky to have recently been invited to a night-time photography workshop in the magnificent Chapter Arts Centre in Cardiff. The session was run by a professional photographer who wanted to show us how to photograph light at night time, specifically light trails, on behalf of a travel company who specialise in holidays to see the Aurora Borealis.
Pompom Craft: Spooky Spiders
When I was a child I used to love making pompoms, and have been eagerly waiting for The Boy to have the fine motor skills to get him started on them as well. I've recently spotted a lot of Christmas crafts on Pinterest using pompoms, but decided to make a more seasonal first attempt with The Boy.
Hallowe'en At Hendrewennol
When you find somewhere that works for you as a family, it can be easy to over-visit and wear out your enthusiasm for the place. Hendrewennol is our new favourite place but we're quite fortunate that as it's a pick-your-own fruit farm it is quite seasonal and therefore we can't overdo our visits. We've visited several times this year; for Easter, fruit picking, exploring the maize maze, and pumpkin picking, but this weekend we went to take part in the haunting Hallowe'en activities which the owners had laid on.
