#Things that I have #LikedandLoved in September 2021

by RachelSwirl September 30, 2021

Though I adore autumn, I’ll openly admit that I’m not the biggest fan of September as a month as it just seems to drag somehow. Whether it’s the return to routine following a lengthy summer holiday or just the change in the weather, I’m not sure but I’m always happy to see September come to a close. On a positive note, here are just a few of the things that I have #LikedandLoved throughout the past month.

How I’d love to tell you all what a wonderful a weekend we have had. Unfortunately that is far from the case nor the truth, as this weekend has been somewhat of a washout, both in terms of the weather and the events which have taken place. However, we put the drama aside and took some time out with the children this afternoon.
