My Favourite Spooky Movies For Halloween
Sponsored Post
The kids are back at school, the weather is cooling and we start to look towards autumn. For me, autumn is one of my favourite seasons, with the other being winter, because, well Christmas!
I love autumn because not only does it bring my birthday and Halloween, it also means its socially acceptable to be inside, snuggled under a blanket, eating yummy treats and watching the TV!
Whether you're the type of person that streams their viewing on a tablet, sticks to Freeview and a standard TV or pays for a subscription service and watches on something fancy, maybe a 4K HDR TV by Panasonic or the like, there's plenty to watch on the run up to Halloween.

Goodbye Preschooler
A few hours ago I made a complete fool of myself on Instagram stories. I cried. A lot. No doubt some people rolled their eyes and skipped passed but for me it was an intimate and vulnerable moment I chose to share.
I hadn't intended to cry. I expected to perhaps feel a little tearful but once I started there was no going back.
The reason for my tears, tears that I'm still fighting back as I write this hours later, is that my 4 year old son starts school tomorrow and I'm heartbroken.
This is the boy I waited 6 long years for. 6 very difficult, hard, excruciating years for.

How To Get The Best Character Interactions At Disneyland!
Many of you will know that we love Disney! The movies, TV shows,
toys, clothes and the parks! We love it all!!
We're incredibly fortunate to have taken our 4 year old son to
Disneyland Paris twice but for now our Disney holidays are on hold and
we are on the big save to go to Walt Disney World!
It's going to take a LONG TIME but we hope to take him in 3 years,
although it's highly likely to be much later than that!

5 Tips To Prepare Parents For School Life
For us the fun of the school run starts next week but as I recently went self-employed we've got into a bit of a relaxed routine.
Sleeping in later, getting to nursery when we feel like it and faffing around a lot!
We need to be organised and get into a routine! As a family we get a bit lazy and forgetful if we aren't sticking to a plan and schedule, so I'm getting organised ready for commencing the school run next week!
All my other school posts have been about preparing the kids but this post is for preparing us grown-ups! So, here are 5 things you can do to be prepared for school life!
1. Label clothes
Have you been so busy buying uniform and PE kit that you've forgotten the all important labelling? It's not too late! I used a stamp from Stamptastic, which I love but if you've not got time to order one have a look in your local school uniform shops for iron on labels. Many of them offer a service where they'll print your labels whilst you wait. Failing that a simple Sharpie or pen offer a quick fix!

Return To Wray Castle
Unbelievably it's been over a year
since we first visited Wray Castle. On our first visit we were really impressed
by how child friendly it was. With it's baby and parent room, Peter Rabbit
Adventure and soft play, Wray Castle makes visiting a historic place easy.
But nearly two years on does it
still offer a happy kid friendly adventure?
