Melissa & Nick visit!

Newlyweds Melissa & Nick  
Had a great time catching up with my friend Melissa Hurley and her husband Nick. A little tour around Brighton and the shops, followed by a very yummy dinner at the Jamie Oliver Italian restaurant in Brighton and dessert at… Starbucks 😛 Loved catching up since our three years spent in Hawaii. Miss our photo shoot sessions, but know we will meet up again. PS. Thank you Melissa for furthering my Chanel addiction 😉 xx ♥ B.



With my Chanel loving makeup artist Melissa from Hawaii. 

Ronan’s Attitude

I have the boys change out of their school uniforms as soon as they get home so that everything they need for the next day goes exactly where it needs to be. I dislike searching for missing items. Ronan A Aherin comes back in wearing the white shirt and tie you see in our 2012 family photo. I sighed and asked him why he decided to wear that and not get into his warm pyjamas. This was his response with a teenager boy attitude, “I just wanted to look cute mum! Can’t I look cute?! Fine I will just go back and change!” Before he could storm off, I gave in and I told him he could look cute.

Playground and Accents

Ronan is doing his best to do his reading homework in an English accent. I’m listening trying not to giggle too loud so he figures out I’m listening and stops. I love when the boys slip into an accent without realizing it and when they imitate words they hear classmates and teachers say at school. It is too cute. xx 

Going back to Brunette

I come home and my youngest son exclaims, “Mummy the red in your hair is gone.” If my 4 year old can already tell if I’ve changed my hair, than I know he is going to make a great partner to some lucky lady in the future.
Hair colour to go back to brunette. Ginger was fun, but time for something new.  
With my beautiful long brown hair I feel pretty again. 
Wearing my new hat from Christmas that my mother in law got for me.
