The glens of Antrim - and a big adventurer contemplating the view. Gosh you don’t have to go too far from home for some amazing beauty. As much as I love gallivanting, Northern Ireland is a magical place.

Chasing waterfalls today.
Miss 7 started the day refusing to leave the house for small waterfalls- she wanted ones like Angel Falls in South America. She declared on the way home it was worth going to see and she’s glad she left home!
We’ve been a bit missing in action- joys of exams, sickness, work, study etc and feeling a bit burnt out. Best bit- day off tomorrow- best type of Monday.

Tomorrow this one starts her transfer tests - an exam selection process for post primary schools. She’s been working hard, and then not too well this week at all. So she’s spent most of the past few days watching Harry Potter!! Not exactly my plans for the days before! The hard work is done.
Good luck to her and all the Primary 7s as they start AQE/GL papers tomorrow. 4 Saturdays of exams then we are free! Roll on December.

Autumn days - I love the change in colours, getting outside and walking. And coming home to our new cozy fire! We’ve stayed about home this half term- and enjoyed catching up with friends, catching up with the house and chilling out. It’s a busy term ahead- Miss 11 starts her transfer tests, I’ve a lot of study to do and work. But then we have fun things at end.
Spending today organising my mind and myself a little! I need to be productive on my PhD. How do you keep the productivity going when life is busy and full?

Hello November! Little man woke up saying Halloween is over is it nearly Christmas? It’s hard when your birthday and Christmas are in the same week- it’s a long time to wait! Here’s to productive November- lots of study, work, exams, house organisation and preparation for next adventures. What’s on your November plan?

The NYC throw backs continues - check out our new blog entry of something a bit different to do in New York. A guided tour of the United Nations headquarters 🇺🇳 Miss 10 loved seeing and hearing about her heroes - Emma Watson and Malala Yousafzai and their work and speeches in the UN.

Our pumpkin game this year has not been great- combination of tiredness, and too much on I think. I doubt we will ever compete with this one from the heights of the Frozen madness this first time round. We are right on target for Frozen II 🎃 🎃 what has been your best pumpkin creation?

Have you been to Narnia? Today we went through the wardrobe, found this lamppost, explored the forest encountering fauns, beavers, forest people, a lion, and evidence of the white witch and her castle. Magic was in the air and their little minds full of the wonder and anticipation as we explored. It was a quiet journey home listening to ‘The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe’. Have you read any of CS Lewis books?

We are rather fond of a theatre opportunity in this house. Miss 11 dreams of being on the stage. Her debut was in @officialevita when the tour came to Belfast. She loves to sing, enjoys a trip to London for a show, and was so excited to check out Broadway on our NYC adventure. She loved her first experience of @phantombway, @frozenbroadway, @sormusical and @anastasiabway . A big highlight was the theatre walking tour and getting to be on the stage of @aladdin and try on many of the props from @thelionking and @marypoppinsmusical check out our blog review - it’s a great idea with kids in NYC 🎭
