My absolute favourite charity shop is closing down My absolute favourite charity shop is closing down. I got these two bargains yesterday, big plans for the mirror which is the perfect size for the downstairs loo.
OCTOBER My favourite month 🍂 I have loved this OCTOBER
My favourite month 🍂 I have loved this season. Lots of autumn walks, crunching leaves with my rosy cheeked baba. Celebrating baba's birthday, our wedding day and a decade of Angus. I cut my hair the shortest it's ever been. 

Dan and I had our first trip away together since parenthood to see @thedandywarhols. Visited the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition at @abdnartmuseums. Took a flower arranging class. Planted lots of bulbs for next year. 🤍
SEPTEMBER ...whizzed by. Work was insanely busy an SEPTEMBER
...whizzed by. Work was insanely busy and it's been hard to focus on enjoying the here and now. We had a #secondhandseptember clothing swap event and organised 14 bags of clothing to be donated to charity. I've been trying to finish off some DIY projects before it gets too cold. We celebrate Baba's birthday next month and it's hitting hard - we've been doing baking, bike riding, caring for spiders in the 'beastie hoose', crunching leaves on our walks and lots of singing and playing instruments. I sometimes wish I could just slow time down!
AUGUST I have had the most wonderful month. We've AUGUST
I have had the most wonderful month. We've had lots of adventures, seeing the Turriff show, visiting Creiff Hydro and seeing Thomas the Tank Engine in Brechin. We went to a BBQ (Baba's face was painted for the first time 🐯 and we met spiderman). We've had lots of sunny days in the garden. Mostly I've been making the most of this summer 🤍
It is way too soon for getting this excited about It is way too soon for getting this excited about Halloween but summer has been so wet and cold in Scotland so I'm celebrating my favourite season early 🍂
