Holidays Archives - Crazy With Twins

We all know how great summer is. It’s all about spending time with the kids and making lots of happy memories and with most of us heading off on our holidays, it’s an exciting time of year for everyone. If you’re already working with a tight budget, then chances are that you’ve booked your holiday […]

We started the May half term holidays a bit glum about the fact we had no plans. That all changed very quickly on the first Saturday afternoon. A family member had offered to lend us a 12 man tent and despite us both saying, “we will never go camping”, we had the sudden desire to […]

It’s no secret that we are a family who LOVE holidays and day trips. We love to always be active and cram as much into every day as we can. We love action, adventure and silliness. We love to make each other smile and laugh. We also love to have a little bit of rest […]

Last week I met 120 other bloggers for a conference on board the cruise ship MSC Preziosa. We boarded the ship at 9:30am and had a day packed with fun activities and fabulous food, until we sadly had to disembark seven hours later. You can watch the short video I made here: (Apologies for the […]

When I blogged that we were looking for wedding venues… I may have been fibbing a little bit. We actually planned our wedding just after we got engaged and kept it a secret.

After a few crazy months of travel, birthday parties, days out and of course that all important question that Mike asked me, we’ve been enjoying a quiet half term, close to home. I’m blogging a full update of the past few months in our crazy lives next week. Today I just wanted to share a […]

People who have been reading my blog for a long time, will know that I have a huge love of travel (so much so, that I started a second blog, a travel blog, just for my travel posts) and a huge love of writing. I used to blog poetry and prose every Wednesday back when […]

Two years ago, we took on the Gromit Unleashed Trail in Bristol, an art sculture trail, which is part of The Grand Appeal, raising money for Bristol Children’s Hospital. This year, Aardman Animations launched Shaun in the City – a very similar art sculpture trail, featuring Shaun the Sheep. There were 50 Shaun sculptures in […]

I LOVE the summer holidays. I love not having to get up early, rush around and do the school run twice a day. I love being able to spend time with my girls, doing whatever we want, with no ties to education. However, it is important, that over the summer holidays, children are still learning. […]
