Forgive me readers for I have sinned. I haven't blogged in a long time, well over a month.  Things have been so crazy busy lately that my blog was placed firmly on the back burner until things settled. However life is showing no sign of slowing down - I'm really not complaining, it's incredible! - so  I will be making a conscious effort to make more time for blogging. For now I will be sticking to my normal routine -Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays - but I'll let you know if anything changes.

It's my niece's birthday this week, so to celebrate, me, my sister, my mum and her other nan took her out for afternoon tea for a lot of cake and some girly bonding time. We went to The Sugar Boutique in Knebworth, we've been there before and had a really nice time (read more about that here).

This week the kids, not mine my sisters, have been off school, so yesterday we packed them into the car and drove all of 20 minutes to Standalone Farm in Letchworth. I'll be honest I totally gatecrashed this beautiful family day out, cause you know any excuse to go and look at baby animals #sorrynotsorry. I had a great time, so my gatecrashing was totally worth it but more importantly the kids did too. 

Because it's half term week they had loads of fun stuff going on for kids that Harry and Tilly loved. The first thing we did was watch the pigs being fed and we saw the cutest piglets, they were a week old and so tiny! We wanted to steal one. Then the kids made trick or treat bags and got covered in bright blue fabric paint, which wasn't ideal but they had a lot of fun doing it. Then they got to brush down a shetland pony, who we think was called Tot, before we saw two giant shire horses.  I think the kids favourite bit was when we went on a tractor ride around the farm. After that they played in the adventure playground and fed some chickens, while me and my sister had a cup of tea. Before we went on a long walk around the farm and saw three Alpacas playing with each other like puppies. We had a really nice day.

Photo Diary from Friends Fest or The One Where We Had The Best Day Ever!!!

Photo Diary from Friends Fest or The One Where We Had The Best Day Ever!!!

Me and my sister have been huge Friends fans for as long as I can remember. So when I got an email about Friends Fest tickets just a couple of weeks before her birthday it was a no brainer! We had to go! And yesterday, after a 10 week wait, we did! We had such a good time. 

Neither of us really knew what to expect because we'd never been before, but it was a proper festival. There was a main stage which had friends stuff going on, there was the Moonlight Diner where Monica worked in season 3, a gift shop,  a Mockolate stand, the Chick & the Duck bar, which did the most incredible cocktails (I know that because we had a lot of them!), a wedding chapel where you could try on Monica and Rachel's wedding dresses, a silent disco(!), the most amazing mac and cheese stand and, the best bit, tours of the sets. We had an amazing time. It was so cool and we even got a little bit emotional when we went round Monica's apartment. We had so much fun, it was the best day! And I will be definitely be going again next year!

P.S. Sorry about the quality of some of the photos, I ran out of space on my phone and we had to use my sister's which has a crack in the camera. Not ideal.
