"🌞 Saying goodbye to summer! ☀️ Took the kids for a delightful lunch BBQ by the bay shore. Savoring sausage toasties and bagels, as we soak in the last rays of sunshine. 🌊🍔 But the real highlight? Firstborn embracing the role of head chef with such enthusiasm! 🍴💫 With close supervision, I shared some cooking tips, watching our little chef-in-training shine. 🍳❤️ These are the moments that make memories. Here's to family, food, and a fantastic summer that's ending on a delicious note! 🌅🌭🥯

Our first home holds a special place in our hearts. This is where we brought our children back after they were born, where we celebrated birthdays and holidays, and where we grew as a family. It's hard to leave behind the memories we created here, but we know that new adventures are waiting for us. We'll never forget the moments we shared here, from the big milestones to the small everyday joys. We'll always cherish our first home and the memories we made within its walls.

From ballet slippers to boxing gloves, baby girl is a force to be reckoned with! Who says you can’t pirouette and punch in the same day? She’s a triple threat - cute, coordinated, and fierce! Watch out world, this three-year-old is coming for you!

Adventure in Belfast!

Out exploring Belfast on the scooter’s, it’s such a great way to bring the kids around Belfast you can just park up and go where ever you need. Baby girl is still learning so totally needed the pram for when the tiredness kicked in.

Nana and Papa were staying in the as they were going to a show, so went to check out their room and the view. View from the 17th floor is unreal, can see so much and it’s like looking like a real life map of Belfast.

We finished off the day with a trip to which is really central and a great view of city hall, if ya can get a window seat. Food is amazing and if ya love pizza your gonna wanna try this place!

We just got invited to Duff Land!

My good friend Ryan Tracey totally just set up a whole fun land for kids all over the country and baby girl (age 2) and second born (age 5) had an awesome time checking it out!

Ryan is known for being the worlds fastest balloon modeller, appearing on Britain’s Got Talent, Ninja Warrior and has even got himself a Blue Peter Badge! When we were at Duffland he was totally in the thick of it, making balloons and bringing out birthday cake.

Ryan started Duffland in January 2022 and it’s great to get baby girl into places like this type of active play as social interaction was completely missed during the pandemic.

Resurfacing of the lakes!

So great that is is finally finished and is such a great place to take the kids on the bike 🚲 and because of resurfacing the ground is so smooth that the kids can use their scooters on it now too or if your an adult, ya know, your skateboard 🛹 🤷‍♂️

If you are in the area and ya wanna go for a lap of the lakes it’s about 3 miles, there is the Animal Farm to stop of at, the Tannaghmore Gardens Play park or if ya wanna stop off at for a sneaky hot chocolate and a doughnut 🍩 it’s right on the water and the views are awesome!

Fairplay to all who pushed to get the resurfacing done, it’s a great asset to the area!

Half marathon band, Junior park run Lurgan!

Second born was so excited to get his half marathon band, it’s so great that they celebrate so many achievements at parkrun UK] it’s really spared him on to do well!

Can’t believe this is a free event every week and big thank you to parkrun UK] for doing such a great job at running this every week an even bigger thank you to every single volunteer involved in this!

Happy Halloween 🎃

Awesome amount of entertainment for the kids today with Halloween 🎃 👻 festivities. Mummy had a ball she knocked out about 6 pumpkins 🎃

Was worried that being away that the kids (and mummy) would miss out on a lot of the halloween craic, but have to say the hotel has been keeping the entertainment going all week with games and arts and crafts.

Bit of orange juice “beer”pong

Totally loving the around the pool games. Been great taking a break from work and getting some family time in.

I had mid term booked off but can get distracted when at home either doing stuff around the house or jumping in and out of work. Been so great to escape to somewhere new.

Awesome amount of fun on Craigavon Lakes today!

Have to say there is some atmosphere at the South Lakes Leisure centre, real good buzz with family’s and groups on the waterfront.

Papa took me & the boys out in kayak’s and they loved it! Feels so good to be getting up and doing things again!

Took out baby girl for some photos 📸

In my job I primarily work with video, I wanted to experiment with some photography with a camera other than my phone to get a feel for what it was like.

Shooting video and photography is very different and requires more research and practice. I have totally just remembered the feeling of learning something new and how easy it is now with a platform like YouTube, every problem I’ve had someone has made a video of it.
