Now it’s officially Autumn - we found conkers! (Or plonkers as my little plonker calls them! 😂)

If you’d like to go Autumn treasure collecting I’ve created a ‘Conker collecting spots’ post to give you some ideas of where to look - just click through for the link.

We found these under the enormous horse chestnut on Cathedral green, Exeter. (The trees on the quay aren’t quite dropping yet).

I absolutely love conkers and how perfect and shiny they all are. I love their different shapes. I love the excitement of peeling them out their case. I love their pristine outer husk… tell me I’m not alone with how much I love conkers!!!

Here’s some sunny sunflowers to brighten up you

Here’s some sunny sunflowers to brighten up you feed. 🌻😊 If you’d like some real ones of your own there’s still plenty for picking - check out the link to find PYO sunflowers close to you.

My day has been spent trying to cuddle and comfort my poorly eldest while trying to amuse my youngest. More juggling!

She seems to be well on the mend 🤞but sad not to be allowed back at school tomorrow. Errrmmmm - if she’s no longer poorly, but not allowed in school what are the rules on having a fun day out together? 🤷‍♀️ Asking for a friend obvs!

📸 thanks for the fab pic @we_are_dotty

Anyone spot this cutie playing hide and seek in the maize maze at @dartsfarm at the weekend?

Thanks so much @the.jacksons.218 for tagging me in your fabulous pictures of Carter having fun. I love them😍

If you’re looking for 🌽 maize maze fun then click the link to find lots of different ones around Devon (might be worth double checking the maze you decide upon is still growing before you go!). And don’t forget to tag me. I love seeing and sharing the fun times!

This weekend it’s all been about craft, chocolat

This weekend it’s all been about craft, chocolate and connection.

School has been long and exhausting for her and emotional for me. The time after school seems to go in a flash and it’s not always been easy for me to be what she needs. So some one-on-one time this weekend has been important for us to reconnect.

@chococochocolates you have hot chocolates of dreams. Thanks for our mummy daughter date. ☕️

@craftfestival brilliant as ever - thanks especially to those in the children’s craft tent - we loved it and it was so nice to finally meet you lovely ladies in person @pomstitchtassel @merakiartschool. Also I’m hoping I made enough hint to my husband at @helenbricedesigns for some earrings to match my beautiful ring. If I didn’t then let’s hope he actually reads my instagrams!!

How has your weekend been? Have you had to reconnect with your school starter?

What a week! My baby girl has started school and

What a week!
My baby girl has started school and turned 5! I’m not sure I can cope! 😭

I did enjoy making her cake though!

How are all you mummies and dads of school starters doing? Loving the quiet or missing them completely?

So lots of us aren’t ready for summer to be over

So lots of us aren’t ready for summer to be over yet. Would we ever be?

But not to worry there’s good news - the sun flowers are ready for pick your own! 🌻
What is cuter that our little ones with a haul of giant (and thankfully fairly robust) flowers over their shoulder? Child entertainment, a lovely bunch of flowers too, and (as some of them are to raise money for local charities) you might also get a good dollop of feel good too! Win win win!

A few different places to choose from, so I’ve made a round up of PYO sunflowers with maps and key info over on the website. Click through for the link.

Happy picking everyone!
(Anyone able to guess where I am tomorrow 😂?!)

📸 thank you to @jasminelpillar for the gorgeous pic

I know I say this every month, but September surprises me every year! It’s my birthday tomorrow 🥳and I’m never ready for it, but I think I have worked out why.  I think September is in Autumn.  In my mind, we are still in summer, which is why I am never ready for it to be my birthday.

My husband also seems to have a similar problem with being ready for my birthday - even tried blaming the fact that my birthday is ‘never on the weekend’ this evening!  I have also had to let him know where the wrapping paper, scissors and sellotape might be!!

Anyway - there’s lots to be looking forward to this month, but as I’m still on summer mode I’m not ready to tell you! One thing I have done but haven’t been very good at telling you all about is the School Starter’s gift guide. There are some fab bits on there with #LittleDevonDiscounts too and it’s not too late to order them if you get in there quick.

My daughter and I completed her @talesofmebooks The Tale of Starting School book the other day.  I printed out all the pics and got together some gem stickers and bits for her to decorate which she loved. It’s so reassuring for them going through school classroom and routine with pictures.  @squidandthekid are also offering a 10% discount on EVERYTHING this week just for us! Head over to Topsham now and grab something gorgeous for your school starter or stock up for all the impending birthday parties!  🎁 The school bows are gorgeous from @toptobow and I can’t wait to have them wrapped for her to open at breakfast on her first day - I think that will be super cute.  And my diary - Thanks Em @everydays.a.school.day for getting me organised... well as long as I can remember that it’s actually already September!!  Anyway all the details for all the products and discount codes are over on LD website - click through for the link.

What are you looking forward to this month?
