I feel like a new woman after finally having my hair done. The colour looks very natural and the layers make it more alive. I trimmed it a little bit, so it is much shorter now. I will share a photo on my grid soon. 𝘿𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙤𝙧 𝙡𝙤𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙧 𝙝𝙖𝙞𝙧?⁣ 💇‍♀️

As I mentioned on Monday, I also had my nails done today. I went for red after a lot of thinking as I was almost going for something more pastel but then I ended up choosing Red Apple as I always do 🙈 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙛𝙖𝙫𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙚 𝙣𝙖𝙞𝙡 𝙥𝙤𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙝 𝙘𝙤𝙡𝙤𝙪𝙧?⁣ 💅🏻

📸 I am sharing another photo of our visit to Isabella Plantation. My girls look like angels 👼here but don’t let them fool you, they were having arguments after! 🙈They are like cats and dogs. They love each other but they also can’t be happy together for long 😆𝘼𝙧𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙠𝙞𝙙𝙨 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙤𝙤?⁣

So finally it is the 12th of April and we are able to see a little light at the end of the tunnel, aren’t we? The pubs and restaurants are now open but only outside. I can’t wait to eat out in a restaurant soon! 𝙃𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙗𝙤𝙤𝙠𝙚𝙙 𝙖 𝙩𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚 𝙖𝙡𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙮? 🍽⁣
⁣
Also non-essential shops are open from today. I think most of the UK went to the shops today. I saw on the news the massive queues that people were doing to get into Primark! I thought it was crazy! I definitely want to go to the stores but I think I will wait a little bit longer until things calm down a little bit. 𝘿𝙞𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙜𝙤 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙥𝙨 𝙩𝙤𝙙𝙖𝙮?🛍⁣
⁣
For me, the best news ever is that hairdressers and nail salons are also open from today! I have my hair appointment tomorrow and I cannot wait any longer! I haven’t done my hair for more than a year! 🙈This really sounds ridiculous but I was well overdue when the pandemic started and then I was never able to go back. So I am just counting down the minutes until tomorrow. My roots are literally covering all my hair now 😂 𝙃𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙗𝙤𝙤𝙠𝙚𝙙 𝙖 𝙝𝙖𝙞𝙧𝙙𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙧 𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙩𝙤𝙤? 💇‍♀️⁣

I am also doing my nails (manicure and pedicure) on Wednesday. I am counting down the minutes for this too! 💅🏻⁣
⁣
📸I am sharing a photo of me with the girls at Isabella Plantation in Richmond. Look at that gorgeous Cherry Blossom Tree. There’s nothing like the Spring Blossom. This place is beautiful. I highly recommend you to visit. The closest car park to visit this place is Broomfield Hill car park that also has a cafe. ⁣

This week went fast. Little Sienna (my youngest daughter) spent the week doing tennis during the mornings which was nice for her because she was in a bubble with friends from her school. She really enjoyed it but she was knackered today! 🎾𝘿𝙞𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙠𝙞𝙙𝙨 𝙟𝙤𝙞𝙣 𝙖𝙣𝙮 𝙘𝙡𝙪𝙗𝙨/𝙘𝙖𝙢𝙥𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙚𝙚𝙠?⁣
⁣
Also, she was freezing cold! Poor thing! If I would have known the weather would be that crazy this week, I probably would have chosen a different club for her. We went from a lovely sunny day to a freezing cold day within hours and then back to being a sunny day again. We’ve had the weirdest weather this week. Let’s hope it starts warming up a little bit more for next week. 𝘿𝙞𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙨𝙣𝙤𝙬 𝙩𝙤𝙤? ❄️⁣
⁣
And Bella, my eldest daughter, spent it at home. She is at that age where she wouldn’t want to go to clubs/camps anymore. I am finding it so hard to get her out of the flat. She would literally spend her day on Roblox or TikTok! 📱💻 She is almost 11 now.  𝘿𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙖𝙢𝙚 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙗𝙡𝙚𝙢 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙤𝙡𝙙𝙚𝙧 𝙠𝙞𝙙𝙨? ⁣

📸 However, we did manage to have a lovely family outing on Easter Monday and both my girls enjoyed it. This is the photo I am sharing above. We went to Isabella Plantation in Richmond Park. We have been in Richmond Park before but never visited this specific place. It was lovely with lots of flowers which is what makes me super happy. I will share more photos of this beautiful place in other posts. 𝙃𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙫𝙞𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙗𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚?⁣

We are looking forward to spending some family time over Easter. We don’t have anything planned but would love to visit some Garden Centres, meeting friends in the park and enjoying the lovely weather that at least we know we will have this week 🌞⁣

Sienna thinks it is summer as she has already put aside her swimsuit to wear this week, lol. She made me laugh and reminded me how excited we all get when the sun is out in this country at least for 5 minutes! 😜⁣

Before the pandemic, going to the cinema was one of my favourite things to do. It is such a fab experience as you can completely immerse yourself in a film while eating a yummy snack.⁣
⁣
At the moment this is not possible, so having a movie night at home has become the new norm, especially when you can include snacks like @metcalfessnacks popcorn, which are so tasty but keep me on track with my diet. ⁣
⁣
I have put together a few ideas of how to recreate the best movie night setup at home:⁣
⁣
1️⃣ First, choose the movie. I have chosen The Notebook as I am a complete romantic and love a bit of a cry. It is one of my favourite movies but the list of options is huge. ⁣
2️⃣ Use fairy lights to put around the TV to make it more special. ⁣
3️⃣ Get a soft blanket to put on the floor together with the most comfortable cushions. ⁣
4️⃣ Put candles around the blanket to resemble an aisle in a theatre.⁣
5️⃣ Turn Off the lights of the living room or the room you are in.⁣
6️⃣ Prepare a snack bar. For me, movies always go along with Popcorn. Like I said, I couldn’t find a better option than @metcalfessnacks. They provide a range of delicious snacks that can be enjoyed without breaking your healthy routine or calorie controlled diet. So it is a win win for me. I got 2 flavours: Sea Salt and Sweet ‘N Salt Popcorn. Yummy!⁣
7️⃣ Get some liquid refreshments. Because of my diet, I am not drinking alcohol, so a Coke Zero is the perfect combination for me. ⁣
8️⃣ You could add some sweets. I have not done this as I am trying to keep away from sweets for now but if I am not on a diet obviously some sweets or maybe some ice cream would be perfect. ⁣
9️⃣ Finally, wear some cozy loungewear with cozy slippers. Just choose the outfit that will make you feel super comfy. ⁣
⁣
I hope you like my ideas. 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙬𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙗𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙚𝙘𝙩 𝙢𝙤𝙫𝙞𝙚 𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙨𝙚𝙩𝙪𝙥 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙮𝙤𝙪?⁣

We are getting closer to April 12th! I honestly can’t wait for things to start feeling more normal again! I am desperate to have a holiday. It has been so long! I am dreaming of white sandy beaches with turquoise waters sunbathing with a cocktail in my hands! That would be so lovely right? 🏝⁣
⁣
Hopefully soon we will be able to travel again but until that moment comes we have to keep strong and carry on I guess. Let’s hope this vaccine does the job. We haven’t heard anything yet. We are in the 40s bracket so I am hoping a message will be sent soon. 𝙃𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙝𝙖𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙫𝙖𝙘𝙘𝙞𝙣𝙚 yet? 💉⁣

Easter is also just around the corner. We are not going anywhere. We have decided to stay around and finish the redecorating projects we are doing at the moment. 𝘼𝙧𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙀𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧? ⁣
