playground, children having fun
playground, hanging with head down

























Summer, you are wonderful! I'm telling you this as an adult but once you hear it from those that enjoy it to the fullest, I bet you're done. Because summer belongs to kids and their ideas and this colourful playground always does the trick. As you can see, the beauty of it is in the simplicity, just a handful of rails needed for a lively rhythm of bodies navigating between objects. I watched Nadia and her cousins for a short while before all the laughing began and I had no choice but to grab my camera and make it my new favourite - snap and entertain, have fun and snap. If there was a need of my career path change, I'd assume to be a great force at making kids laugh. It's not easy job, you know. Kids always spot the first sign of artificiality, the trick, the fake connection so I had to think fast and react accordingly. They were the best moments. Older playground occupants laughed their socks off at a thought of me not being able to locate any children there but monkeys making funny noises while hanging with their heads down. The youngest of them accompanied the fun because he thought that this monkey business was a great idea. There is no way to go wrong while there are little people to share the fun with and sink all of the energy into doing any small thing that will get everyone into the right mood. Have a great week, friends! x

STARTING FROM SCRATCH AT EVERY CHANCE WE GET


















































This title says a lot about our attitude towards direction the wind blows - we've started getting used to to going out without much on, having our hair whipped around our faces and our lungs exhausted. Every spring our bodies are starting from scratch taking more in until reaching a pleasant balance in loving everything about warm weather again. The air is feeling different, we have more energy than you'd suspect so even still chilly afternoons at the playground win out. Those after meal get togethers are going to happen more often so I've already started looking for fabrics that stand up to dirt and are stretchy and comfortable enough to win every race however it's not terribly realistic to Nadia's life so she adjusts my ideas a lot. Skirt, sparkly ballet pumps, hair left loose is how we go these days. Whatever is found in four year old's closet is more than versatile in her eyes. 

As always we're not really bothered to plan ahead of time. Having a basic understanding of what the weather could be like is what keeps us sane around this latitude. Warm days attract people to all places imaginable so we're going out often. Twice a day is not too often. We take time to explore, make friends or invite ours, we are prepared to travel to find what we're looking for. And we always find it, fun as they say hides itself to be found easily. Have a beautiful day, friends. x

^^ Funny faces with my nephew and you notice how the big age gap adjusts itself. Also, no hat! (preparing my head for new routines) ^^

This summer we have enjoyed various activities and visited multiple children friendly parks and nooks hidden out of the hustle and bustle of a busy town which is why we are such fans. Most mornings of not so crispy tees and straight jeans we're ready to roll to wherever less visited, overlooked and if the place can double up as something else - a pirate ship, a castle, it gets to be way more interesting. 

We do think big too. Going to UK holiday parks for us is like sprinkling some fairy dust onto the scene especially as dusk starts to overtake more and more, light hitting the walls almost makes them magical. Pantomimes, shows, attractions that quicken our heart rate are definitely on our list no matter the season. So we've sat down and browsed nearer and farther fun destinations hardly sleeping knowing we're a click away to get into the Christmas spirit. Although I present you summer pictures, here are some breathtaking images from Butlin's holiday/leisure resort website to convince and inspire. My brochure is in the post and the childhood excitement takes over again.

^^ I've spied with my smartphone eye a toddler willing on taking roads less traveled by. The most interesting areas have no straight paths and more leafless trees then others. Find us there. Always. ^^

^^ How to care for the delicate world within: lots of sleep and cuddly friends. ^^

^^ Make your room a playpen, your house a playground... simply learning from these two, Nadia and her cousin and best friend of four years ^^

^^ Stash of my seaside photos is mounting - at least you're well stocked for the next three years ;) ^^

^^ It's hard to go wrong with a bit of chocolate and tons of sprinkles or any variation like it. ^^

^^ The experience outweighed our senses - didn't mind the cold late evening when the sky was talking. ^^

^^ Everyday journey of discovery... for both parties involved but way too tangible for Nadia by looking at her awed face. ^^

^^ A subject so dear to her heart, mind and closet - all that is layered in pink and makes a beautiful sense. ^^

^^ How do we occupy ourselves? Can't really seem to maintain one activity for very long - tea parties and sweets tasting is just the beginning of an eventful day. ^^

THERE IS NO CERTAINTY, THERE IS ONLY ADVENTURE.


















































It comes in a variety of disguise. Most days than not it finds us in the open space of wilderness of the sky reluctantly merging with icy blue water. Past week was cold yet sunny, windy but only indulging itself while we were ready for it. To see this little face light up at the sight of enormous playground is beyond explanation. So the beach it is before it will be too cold to approach it necessarily snuggled up. Thanks to daylight saving time that extra hour in our possession is fighting for attention in its own illimitable style through Nadia's strong and powerful announcements what to do with it. Agreeing on her concepts saves us unnecessary meltdowns and unfolds creative afternoon scenes that she loves. The open space is always guaranteed to deliver good vibes. We don't settle in happily these long afternoons, a dash of sunlight, sporadic showers can fully ignite that spark for adventure. And of course the need to tell stories, make memories, leave a lasting impression on the sand lets itself in unapologeticly. We feel we need to have them in our life, those silly adventures even if it is just the sand shifted through cold fingers anytime our hearts desire.

THERE IS NO CERTAINTY, THERE IS ONLY ADVENTURE.
THERE IS NO CERTAINTY, THERE IS ONLY ADVENTURE.

CONTENTMENT IS A CHOICE (WE'RE GETTING THERE ;)
CONTENTMENT IS A CHOICE (WE'RE GETTING THERE ;)














































This cat is clearly not ready to perform any tricks right now and will surely not accept much petting because it's deeply unsatisfied with the direction her whiskers are pointing and few other things including being a tail shorter. As the list went on I found it hard to track so the smartest thing to do was to wash off what's washable, tell her our plans for the afternoon and shuffle out to see other cats, witches, pumpkin lot. It was quite the achievement but a sensible idea for the rest of the day all about excitement and much too much sugar. 

Happy November, everyone however October is still a work in progress over here! Sealing unfinished deals, repairing broken toys, coming together and admitting it. Above all we're into days spent on counting, crafting, shuffling our feet through the fallen leaves. It varies on different days making my heart flutter just a little more every time normal everyday occurrences transform into extraordinary adventures. Care to join us? You're always welcome. x
