Brit Mums last weekend was absolutely fantastic – I really, really enjoyed it, and I felt like I learnt lots. I loved the creative workshops the best; it was brilliant to get an insight into the minds of such talented people. I also got to stay with a friend I don’t get to see very often, so that was really nice. We went to see Pitch Perfect 2 and it was even more hilarious second time around.
The highlight was getting my picture taken with Ella Woodward – she is so inspiring. I loitered sheepishly with my heart pounding to ask her for a picture and she couldn’t have been more lovely. I love her more than ever now! I told my family and none of them knew who she was, they then proceeded to wind me up me up for about 20 minutes.
I didn’t manage to read many Little Loves last week and I feel bad about it – sorry.
Read
This one needs improvement – thanks for the reminder! I wrote a post about marriage this week and it has been my most viewed post ever, which is great – but freaked me out a little. I didn’t realise it was such a hot topic!
Watched
We spent a really lovely afternoon at Conisbrough Castle on Jared’s birthday. The weather was glorious and I loved watching the boys climb everywhere. Ru was being a little over ambitious.
Heard
Jared has been very good at practising his guitar, so I thought it was high time I had a go at playing the piano again. I literally haven’t touched it for months and was surprised to discover I can still play a few tunes. Needless to say, it didn’t sound the best but it was so enjoyable.
Made
This week has felt busier than usual, so I haven’t made very much apart from a fry up for Jared’s birthday breakfast. I’ve started making a little mini garden for Winston and he loves it, even though all it has in it is soil, and a mini pond so far! He’s decided he wants a slide and a little house in it, so I need to work out how to make those.
Wore
This week it has been all about simple gold necklaces. I can’t get enough of them and I never tire of this M&S fan print jumper that I own.
And lastly…
This weekend is my sister’s hen party and I’m really looking forward to it. We’re going wake boarding on Saturday morning and even though I know I’ll be terrible, I can’t wait!
May the gorgeous weather continue and have a wonderful weekend!

#LittleLoves is a chance to remember all the things that made up your week. Linking up with Morgana.
The pictures of those two at the castle are so adorable!! Loving those necklaces too.
So jealous about you meeting Ella Woodward! Would have loved to xxx
It was so scary…but I’m so glad I waited her out! How stalkery to I sound? Haha xx
Beautiful photos Esther! So glad you had a great time at BML too – you kind of remind me of Ella Woodward actually! 🙂 I loved your marriage post, and it really resonated with me too. Have a lovely weekend chicky xx
That might just be the nicest complement ever 😉 haha. Thank you – have a wonderful week xx
Lovely photos of your day trip. I love the top with the fans. Glad you enjoyed BML.
Thank you xx
Some lovely photos, love your necklaces. I also have some hair envy. If you tell me your waves are natural, this will make it even worse! Glad you had a great time at Britmums xxx
If only the waves were natural! I wish. My hair is so frizzy and wild, but very rarely I decide to get the tongs on it! Have a really lovely week xx
It was lovely to meet you at Britmums! x
You too Jess! xx
I love castles, I’m such a history geek. Shame the kids don’t share my passion for them or I might get to them more often. Love that fan top, it’s gorgeous. Have a great weekend x
Thank you! We’re history geeks too, but it can be a little tricky because they’re so young! Have a really good week xx
I’ve spotted your photos from wakeboarding over on Instagram, looks like so much fun! Climbing around ruins was always brilliant as a child, looks like your two had a great time 🙂 hope you’re all having a fab weekend xx
It was so good! You should go! The last time I did it was ten years ago and this time it felt so much easier. Maybe I just had more confidence? SO much fun! Hope you had a good weekend xx
Gorgeous photos! Love your hair and those necklaces. I’m the same with simple gold necklaces, you can never have too many 😉
Have a lovely week xx
Agreed! Thanks Morgana xx
