A new Blog

Hi there this is a new blog, I have had blogs before but they tended to dwindle away during busy times. This Blog will be different because we have so much going on this year that as a family we want to dcument everything which is going on.
Firstly we have a new family project, our Plot number 20 allotment, we have already spent a lot of time there getting it all ready for the next growing season and hopefully to grow a few things at the end of this season. I love going down the allotment, its peaceful, everyone there is a wealth of knowledge and help and I find digging and weeding relaxing and the work is slow but steady and hopefully rewarding. I will document our time there and the things we acheive as we achieve them.
We then have our eldest daughter Elle May who is about to start the journey of secondary school, I think I am more nervous then her but we are slowly getting prepared and ready for the start of a new chapter for her.
My youngest Stanley is 5 and will be going into Year 1 where he will now start all the new exciting steps of learning to read and write, we have been doing lots of practising through the holidays in preparation for him.
Then my partner and I are planning to live more frugally and start saving again as over the last year our savings have dwindled and I would really like to push them right back up again.
And me I plan to continue organising the house and making it a home, studying for my degree and reading as much as I can.
So thats an introduction to us, where we are and what we are up too.
