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.

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!

Slow Cooker Chicken and Chorizo Casserole Recipe

We love cooking chicken in the slow cooker and they are always some of our favourite family meals. We created this Slow Cooker Chicken and Chorizo Casserole and thought we’d share it with you.

The chicken and chorizo work so well together and give a real depth of flavour. The flavour just intensifies during cooking and you’re left with such a rich main course dish that the whole family will love.

Can you vary this Slow Cooker Chicken Casserole recipe?

You could easily turn this into a chicken chorizo potato slow cooker meal bu throwing some potatoes into the mix and enjoying it as a true one pot meal without the need for any sides. Sweet potato would also work really well and it would be ready when you are!

Slow Cooker Chicken and Chorizo Casserole Recipe

We use chicken on the bone for this chicken casserole recipe as it stays nice and moist during cooking but you could use boneless skinless chicken thighs instead if you wanted but chicken breasts do tend to dry out in slow cooker recipes.

This slow cooked chorizo stew is now a firm favourite for our family. It so full of flavour and has all the taste of a traditional Spanish chicken recipe. The chorizo sausage adds a lovely spicy kick to the meal and cooking in the crock pot really helps the flavours to infuse and the meat to soften.

How do you serve this easy chicken casserole?

This is a great one pot slow cooker meal that works well served with crusty bread, rice, mash, roast potatoes or pretty much anything else you feel like! It’s really hearty and full of flavour.
