6. 3 Interesting things to do when you’re bored

   Posted on 9:40am Tuesday 2nd Feb 2016

   Boredom is something that we enjoy sometimes and dislike other times.  Luckily I’m always so busy nowadays I rarely have the pleasure of being bored.  I saw a blogger mention they were bored the other day and had one hour to kill. ‘What can I do?’ they asked.  Why not do something interesting with your spare time?

   Here are 3 interesting things that you can do which will not only banish the beast of boredom, but you will enjoy doing them!

7. Braces at 30 – another dentist appointment!

   Posted on 8:16am Friday 22nd Jan 2016

   Just a quick update as I want to document my entire 'braces at 30' journey from start to finish.  Yet again I had to go to my dentist as they were concerned that my orthodontist was not leaving enough time between the dentist removing two baby teeth and the orthodontist fitting my brace.

   Read on to see what happened when I had to visit the dentist for them to check my baby teeth before they removed them.  Totally pointless if you ask me!

   But then again, I'd better get used to having a LOT of appointments now I'm going ahead with train track braces and cosmetic dentistry,  It's going to be a journey for sure!

9. A sneak peek at our garden 'wedfest' wedding!

   Posted on 7:21pm Tuesday 29th Dec 2015

   Ben and I tied the knot in August this year (2015) and I've meant to devote a whole blog post to the event for a while now.  I'll share a snippet so you get a feel of the day and perhaps some inspiration from some of the ideas we had for our Wedfest.   We did a DIY backyard wedding in our garden.  It was low cost, so budget-friendly, and perfect for those who don't like the idea of a traditional wedding day.  Read on as I share how we planned our outdoor wedfest for lots of DIY backyard wedding ideas on a budget!

17. BubaBloon review

    Posted on 9:26pm Thursday 7th May 2015

    BubaBloon, a new company I found on Twitter, kindly offered to send me their 'fabric balloon cover for babies and children' to review.  The BubaBloon looked like something both Bella (toddler) and Reuben (baby) would enjoy, so I gladly accepted.

    Hopefully it would also make playing with balloons much safer for my young children - the non bursting balloon was only a thing of dreams until now!

    Read on for my BubaBloon review.
