A fun and exciting week... #WotW

This week my Word of the Week is:


This week has been a bit of a different week for us. A good different...We have had a lot of fun and excitement. 

Over the weekend we carved our pumpkins and on Tuesday we of course went out Trick or Treating....I really didn't want to but there was no talking the kids out of it....They got dressed up and we went walking the streets and knocking on doors....We were out for about an hour and they got plenty of sweets...


I had been promising to take Ellie to soft play and was planning to go during half term but the day we had planned to go she didn't want to so we went on Wednesday after school....I thought it would be quiet but it was absolutely packed. We went straight from school and I'm glad we did. Half an hour after we arrived you couldn't get a seat.

Ellie's day and probably month was made....Her friend who she hasn't seen in a good few months was there. Life couldn't have got any better for her in those couple of hours...hehehe

The soft play cost £4.30 per child and we got a voucher for a free child's meal which would have cost us £3.75....I think we will be going again. What a bargain!


After soft play we had a look around B&M Stores....Oh my goodness. The kids gave me so many ideas about what they want for Christmas....I also saw quite a few things I want for my birthday. hehehe A wine glass the size of my head. Yes please....

I did do a good part of the Christmas shopping over the past week....I got a few bargains from Sports Direct. I have been seeing blog posts by people who have worked with them and the great toys they have. I spent about £60 and got quite a bit! There was Monster High dolls which Ellie is really into at the moment for £6. Elsewhere they are about £15.00 and Amazon took a good chunk of my money yesterday where I did a bit of shopping for Becky. Emoji things galore....lol

I got an email earlier in the week....One I had been waiting for from Tesco....All year I save my clubcard points and this year I have £72.50 in vouchers to go towards the Christmas food shop which will pay a good chunk of it! I can't wait to do the food shopping!

  1. Glad the girls had so much fun trick or treating and that Ellie enjoyed the soft play. Love B&M but it’s so so easy to go in there for a couple of things and come out with a trolley load! That’s good savings on your Tesco Clubcard vouchers. Hope you have a lovely weekend x #WotW
