Finally a month where I don’t feel like it passed in the blink of an eye. October has been a pretty good month for us. The kids have settled back into the school year and there have been lots of little celebrations. Despite the month starting with a nasty sickness bug, it ended with lots of fun celebrating Halloween.

October has been a very busy month but there has been plenty of time to fit in fun too. I hope the rest of this year is just as busy and just as good.

Here’s what we got up to in October.

• We celebrated Chris turning 38 with a nice meal out.
• Daisy was voted into the school council by her classmates.
• I started watching cheesy Christmas movies.
• Jake got star of the week at school.
• We went to Mattel Play! in Liverpool.
• A sickness bug visited us all.
• Chris and I binge watched Stranger Things.
• We visited a pumpkin patch.
• Daisy and Jake reviewed lots of great toys, games and activities for the blog.
• We visited Scott (my eldest son) at university.
• Daisy made a paper mache dinosaur for her homework.
• We went to a dinosaur themed afternoon in Daisy’s class.
• The kids both got glowing reports at parents evening.
• I decluttered some more things and deep cleaned the whole house.
• We had lots of creative fun.
• The pumpkins were carved and the house decorated for Halloween.
• Daisy & Jake went trick or treating.
• We enjoyed lots of good quality family time together.
