A few weeks ago we had a whole day coming up with no work, school, social events or sporting activities. The weather was due to be good for the majority of this day so we wanted to get outdoors (After what has felt like a long Florida winter!) Being one of the 1st hot daysContinue reading “Geo – caching, our unknown adventure”

Valentines
In England Valentine’s is a couple’s celebration. It’s not a holiday that traditionally involves the whole family. I certainly didn’t make a big deal of it with our kids anyway. Rob and I are not a big showy couple either though, a simple card and gift would be exchanged and we’d often chose a mealContinue reading “Valentines”
England
Our 3 week England trip began 16th December 2018. We were travelling back to the UK to renew our current immigration visas. The kids schools longest break is the summer and by then the visas would have expired, so the Christmas break was the next best time to go, even though we were fully expectingContinue reading “England”
I’m Back!
So it’s been a while since I last blogged! The holiday season here in the US kept me busy for a good while and I started a new job! I’m happy to say I have a cozy job round the corner in the Noc at a wine market and tasting room. I know many ofContinue reading “I’m Back!”
Turkey Day
Hi, I have to blog about Thanksgiving now I’m living in the US! Its the start of the holiday season here. Living in the UK I didn’t know much about thanksgiving. I’ve been in New York on the day, watched the Macys parade and shopped the black Friday deals. I didn’t take in much aboutContinue reading “Turkey Day”
Fundraising Fun!
I’ve wrote about Poppy our eldest child before . https://brummiemummystateside.com/2018/06/18/poppy/ This blog is essentially about her too.

Rob and I knew no different, Poppy was our first and what we thought “difficult” baby.Continue reading “Fundraising Fun!”

(My satellite radio has started christmas stations today – 1st Nov!) The majority of October is all about fall and halloween. Especially the last week where there areContinue reading “Halloween!! 🎃”
Being a Brummie, my week so far
I’ve spent 3 whole days back in Birmingham and I already feel myself changing. I greeted my bestie (Who I’ve not seen since July 2017) in the middle of Primark underwear section with “Alright Bird” to which she replied “How am ya?” 😂 I’ve got used to hearing “Hey girl” over in Florida. So quicklyContinue reading “Being a Brummie, my week so far”
The Big Trip
I’ve been banging on about my trip back to the Birmingham for months now and today is finally the day! I’ve had very mixed emotions about leaving. Obviously mega excited to not only see my family and besties but I actually get to help my oldest friend walk down the aisle and marry her fella,Continue reading “The Big Trip”
My Florida hairstyle – Including Vlog link!
My hair has gone through a few phases since moving over here and I feel finally I’m happy with it! I started out with long box coloured blonde hair, with a fringe (bangs). You know when you go abroad on holiday and your hair decides it has a life of its own? Starts to growContinue reading “My Florida hairstyle – Including Vlog link!”
