With the new instagram app on my phone I have picked up a few themed days in which I can participate. One is ‘throwbackthursday’ and for today I decided to use a photo of me from 1987 playing Pigpong. Anyone remember this game? What fun one! I would love to have a copy to play together with my boys.

Only my boys would play with their clementines at snack time and pronounce to the world, “This is the Eye of Sauron!”. #LOTRI have not fathomed just how big and over the top America celebrates holidays. Trying to find things to put in the boys’ Easter baskets proved this point to myself. There are lots of eggs, but no ‘baskets’. There is also not a plethora of plastic green grass, needless Easter toys and egg dying kits. I love the thought of just buying an Egg and the boys were both excited to get their own egg. However I did pick up some extra little chocolates, a film, and a few items from the toy section so we can have some new things to do together while they are on Easter Break.

My kids’ Easter surprises. They do not do baskets in the UK, so I pieced it together from a few various shophttp://t.co/zBNM1u7cToured RAF museum in Chichester, took a 2 hr nature walk after missing the last bus, and enjoyed a family dinner before catching train home.Buona Pasqua a tutti! Happy Easter ♥ xxI took all the books and clutter off our shelves today and then reorganized the whole lot. We do have books in the office of our flat as well, but these are the ones displayed out in our living room. From left to right and starting with the shelf on the left we have Theatre, Poetry, and Military History inspired novels. That leads us into our faith and theology section and then into our travel and linguistic section. On the other side are all of our novels and favourite fiction series. The very bottom rows of both shelves have a good misc. sections including history, nonfiction, photography, yearbooks, etc. I
