Happy first day of Spring! I am so glad to see some sun around here this week. I feel like we can finally come out of hibernation soon and actually allow ourselves to get excited about summer! This year so far has been quite slow – lots of nights in with blankets on the sofa, books, candles, Netflix and generally hiding from the cold. I make an effort to get outside in the light everyday but I’m so looking forward to light evenings too, and being more sociable this spring. 
This week we booked a holiday with my whole family together for the first time in a couple of years go to Spain in the summer and I cannot wait for some lazy pool days and tapas. I’m excited for some weekend breaks with friends next month as well. Have you got many summer plans? How has your 2018 been so far?
Yesterday I was reading Tania’s post on how blogging has changed in the last few years and it prompted me to share more random photos/posts, because I too miss this about blogging. After all, the word blog comes from web-log, which should be more like a diary right? My favourite posts to look back at over the years are these musings, capturing the small moments of different seasons of life that are so easily forgotten.
