Memories and Socially Distanced Walk #R2BC

How does Thursday get here so quickly? It means it's time for the happiest linky around. I hope you all enjoy reading the other posts. For anyone new to the linky we have a few relaxed instructions:

What do you have to do? Simple:

1. Link up a post about something that is making you happy or grateful. It can be a list, photos or any way you fancy

2. Add the #R2BC badge (at the end of this post) onto your post or blog so that people can easily find the linky and join in too if they want to

3. Share the love. This is the really important bit. Please don't just link and run, comment on at least a couple of posts and why not share with #R2BC too?

I'll stop by all linked up posts to comment and I'll share on social media too. Meanwhile here are my reasons to be cheerful for this week:

1) Remembering loved ones

I found more treasure whilst sorting through boxes. Lots of photographs of my granny when she was a child and young adult. I put them up with the photographs I had framed of my daughter last week:



I have since given the one of my gran with her little sister to my mum as she didn't have any of her mum as a child.

2) VE Day

My neighbours and I managed a socially distanced celebration for the 75th VE Day celebration. One even baked us lots of cakes:



3) Socially distanced walk

The new rules meant that after 7 weeks I could walk with my daughter, whilst maintaining the social distance rules:

Reasons to be Cheerful: Its all coming together


I have been a bit AWOL recently with teacher training and preparing to move house - I never do anything by halves! It isn't because I had nothing to be cheerful about just not enough time to blog about it. Thanks to the lovely Jo at Ojo's World for holding the fort. I will do my best to keep hosting in May..

Here are my recent reasons to be cheerful:

1) House move 

My dad has been working hard to get the new house ready for moving. He has been removing paper and painting woodwork as well as fixing the kitchen floor. Still plenty to do and its giving me time to pack up all our worldly possessions:


2) Outdoor Fun

I had an amazing school trip to Coniston Water Park this week. As well as canoeing I even got hauled up into a tree by the children:


3) VE Day

My children celebrated VE Day at school by wearing vintage style clothing and having a street party. This was my daughter's outfit:
