Halloween 2016






As per usual, we spent our Halloween weekend at a National Trust property, this year it was Wightwick! We had a great time doing the trail and playing in the autumn leaves.















I'm really going to miss it when someone is too big for dressing up as a little skelly!!

Brockhampton Estate


Seeing as we had a pretty busy Halloween, I decided that today, we would have a nice trip out somewhere to do some halloween activities and have a good old stroll. I scoured the events lisitngs on the National Trust website and Mr Bee and I decided on Brockhamton Estate, a medieval farmhouse near Hereford as it had the most exciting sounding trail!







To say it was foggy would be an understatement. It was so thick that you could barely see anything at all, which made the drive in to Lower Brockhampton just a little bit white knuckle!








We spent  AGES romping around the gorgeous estate, in its firey autumnal glory. 





Then we visited the house. Mr Bee made himself right at home in the 1950's room, playing with the games and toys for hours (honestly!) and I managed to bump in to a long lost relative, which was in incredible surprise!


We can not wait to return to this beautiful place, so that we may be able to see a little more of it!! It was a spectacularly fun day but I will never forget the drive home on the m5 in the most horrific fog I have ever seen in my entire life!

Happy Halloween







This morning we dug out all of our spooky films, baked meringue ghosties, ate adorable ghost and bat crispies, made halloween shaped pizzas, dressed up as bats and pigged out on popcorn whilst watching our marathon of DVDs.
Mr Bee doesn't seem to be phased by all things spooky, so he happily watched Beetlejuice and Hocus Pocus without a flinch. He has a great little sense of humour!

Now its time for the little bee to head up to bed, Papa and I can sit down to some scary films and finish the rest of our treats.

Happy Halloween!

Calke at Halloween



Today saw a trip to Calke Abbey. Planned months in advance.
Pumpkin Party in the walled garden (or not the walled garden it seemed!).
Unbeknown to us, half term meant it was a hive of people, which meant we couldn't amble around as we usually do.
It was so beautiful to see the golden trees, and kick up leaves as we walked.
A great prelude to tomorrows Halloween activities!
