We visited the National Space Centre for the first time this weekend, thanks to Lego City. This summer Lego City have launched their new Space range and to celebrate have teamed up with the National Space Centre over the summer holidays.
I think it is very easy to forget what perspective you have on life when you are small. So on our recent family trip to London we gave Maxi a Kodak Easyshare Touch camera to use.

One of the things that came out of blogcamp Manchester for me was the fact that it is key to develop your own voice or writing style and to stick with it thorough out your blog.
It made my day to listen to two strong, unique and inspirationsal women discuss why they blog and how they developed their writing style. Neither was apologetic for the things they did. Muireann from Bangs and Bun is a funny, feisty and unforgettable powerhouse of words. She isn’t afraid to use them and share the outcome of them with her readers. I love the fact that she doesn’t police comments on the blog and acknowledges that people can have differences of opinion.
We love books in the Mad House and I have blogged before about encouraging reading in boys and so when we were offered the chance to review a Tidybooks bookcase I was intregied to see how it would fit in to our home.
First Impressions:
The Tidybooks bookcase is self assembly, but it is so well designed that even the boys could help. No small tacks to hammer in the back, everything was fastened with an allen key and it was super fast to put together.

I was also suprised at how tall the bookcase is (it is taller than Mini at 115cm).
We like:
I love the fact that this bookcase is very slim in depth and is designed so children
ow to describe Mini, well he is noise with muck on.
His emotions run close to the surface and some times get the better of him, but this means you always know where you stand.
He is a lover and a fighter.
He shows a talent for music and a passion for reading and literature.
He is my earth, wind, stars and moon.

I was tagged by Carol at Dance without sleeping to show you my karaoke edition. Now the thing is I don’t have a karaoke song. I have never sang a song in public and am not sure I am going to start now! Not only would I burst a few ear drums (even the boys
Now half term is over, rather than a track of my years, I am going to give you the track of our week. The song that has accompanied us on our road trip and fun Whitsum wanderings
