I always have a lot of questions about accommodati I always have a lot of questions about accommodation when we stay anywhere as a family so I thought I’d share this little tour of our room at @windjammerlanding which was a pretty perfect place to stay.

It’s the ‘Ocean View Two Bedroom’ which was like a little house, with an upstairs and downstairs, built into the hillside. Both rooms had outdoor space and their own shower rooms. Such a great option for a family.
A little photo dump from our holiday in St Lucia. A little photo dump from our holiday in St Lucia. We’ve been back a few days now but still miss the heat, the food, the pool, the constant sounds of wildlife and the lovely people. It was such a great holiday and I’m sure we’ll be back one day.
And just like that, Athena is 12! What a joy it is And just like that, Athena is 12! What a joy it is watching her grow and what a wonderful young woman she is becoming. We could not be more proud. Love you Pickle, have a great birthday.
We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in S We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in St Lucia staying at @windjammerlanding and it was just the holiday we needed. Two weeks of sunshine and relaxation in what must be one of the most beautiful islands in the world. 

We can’t wait to go back again in the future. Here’s just a little snippet of our trip.
AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @na AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @national_motor_museum despite the rain! The children loved the Little Beaulieu play area and we loved exploring the National Motor Museum and Top Gear exhibit before having a ride on the monorail! We went on an old open topped bus, explored the Beaulieu Manor House and loved the gardens. 
Beaulieu is always a great day out - whatever the weather. This summer they have a whole ‘Summer of Fun’ planned, with activities most days - parades, bird shows and hundreds of sculptures within the grounds too. If you’re looking for a day out this summer definitely think about heading to Beaulieu.
AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to t AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to their first concert - but it was so much more than just a concert! @abbavoyage is incredible. With CGI ABBA and a live band, it’s like being at an ABBA concert 40 years ago but with modern lighting, effects and sound. ABBA look and sound real, it’s a mind blowing experience.
The set includes all the songs you know and love as well as a few less familiar ones.
You can’t take photos during the show which actually made a refreshing change. A whole arena focused purely on the show and soaking up the moment. It’s definitely something the four of us will always remember.
Now, I’m off to sing Dancing Queen all the way home.
AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdo AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdockyard today. They have a fantastic Ultimate Explorer ticket that lets you visit all the attractions as many times as you like for 12 months - and after a day at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard we can see that you need more than one day to really do everything!

We explored HMS Warrior, HMS Victory and the Mary Rose Exhibition - which is incredible! We also saw where ships are built and restored and spent time in Action Stations where the kids climbed and did an assault course.

Portsmouth Historic Dockyard is such a fun, educational day out with something for all ages - we can’t wait to go on their harbour tours next time we visit!

They’ve both had a great year at school this year. Troy’s first without his sister by his side and Athena’s first at secondary school. 

They both had great reports, always did their best and have made some really lovely new friends this year. I could not be more proud of them.

Now, let’s go and enjoy the next six weeks before school starts all over again!

Healthy Halloween Jelly Oranges Recipe

I saw this idea a few years ago but because Dave and I don’t really ‘do’ Halloween I have never had a chance to put it into practice! But this year LP is learning about Halloween at school and so there is no escaping it!

Healthy Halloween Jelly Oranges Recipe

I thought I would make her the Halloween Jelly Oranges as part of our cute ideas for healthy Halloween recipes to make at home. I know, it’s not quite pumpkin pie but it’s still pretty fun for Halloween and using sugar free healthy jelly makes them lovely treats for children to balance out the sugar and a great alternative to gummy worms and chocolate!

Can you really make healthy Halloween food?

The kids always love fun food and these cute Halloween oranges are fantastic for dessert or a treat but are also great for a children’s Halloween party buffet or healthy halloween snacks and are so easy to make. These are just one of many Halloween food ideas I’m planning to write about.

They make a great change from unhealthy options and the children really enjoy them. It’s so hard to find healthy recipes for Halloween party food so I thought these might inspire others when it comes to Halloween party planning.

Everything at Halloween centres around pumpkins and these oranges with faces do look like mini pumpkins sitting on the side. You could even get an edible pen and draw pumpkin lines and leaves on the outside too.

You can get as creative with these oranges as if you were carving a pumpkin – your options are as vast as your imagination! As oranges are so small we kept our designs fairly simple but I would love to see what you come up with.

They’re a great kids party food that the whole family will enjoy – and perfect for a birthday party too. You could serve with ice cream to make a really lovely dessert.

Here’s our Halloween Jello Oranges Recipe:

Ingredients

  • Pack of sugar free orange jelly although you could use other fruit flavours too.
  • 6 oranges

Instructions

  • Cut the top off the oranges and hollow out the middles. Carve faces onto the oranges like you would a pumpkin.
  • Dissolve the jelly in 285ml boiling water.
  • Squeeze the juice from the orange flesh and add it to the jelly mixture. Top up to 570ml with cold water.
  • Put in the fridge to set.
  • Fill each orange skin with jelly and replace the tops.
