Birthday Celebrations in Kettering

Hi guys!

I hope all is good. I'm currently off school for the week to revise for my mock exams that take place later on in the week (so much studying going on right now...!), so before I get to that, I thought I might as well write my blogpost for the week.

My mum turned 48 on Friday! She got so much cool stuff, including a Michael Korr's watch from my dad! Lucky for me too as I get her old watch! We celebrated in (greasy) style as we got a gorgeous Chinese takeaway. It's safe to say all New Years healthy eating resolutions are already out the window!

Anyway, on the Saturday I had the annoying dilemma of two parties clashing! There was my colleague Becca's 18th birthday house party or my mum's friend's 40th. We opted for the latter as it doubled up as celebrating my mum's own birthday and we could make a weekend of it as it was in Kettering, so hotel was booked too.

All in all it was such a fantastic night! Some of the DJ's selections were a bit dodgy but we were all having so much fun! Me and my brother even busted out a 'Gangnam Style' routine despite knowing about 5% of the attendees there! I guess you just don't care when you're that hyper. Of course there was a Harvester pre-party and probably a far too loud round of Heads Up! too. It's a pleasure getting to spend time with loved ones. There are some great pictures that were taken, including my dad with insanely large beer jug! So expect some cool present pics, hotel pics and of course, food ones too!

As you can see, it was so much fun! I hope you enjoyed looking at this little photo gallery. Did you have a good weekend?

Thanks for reading as always,

Partying and Stratford Upon Avon Gifts

Hi guys!

This weekend was one of the best in ages! On Saturday I went to a friend Xena's house party, followed by one of my best friends Christian's 18th party on the Sunday at Laserforce! They were both so much fun, the former was full of hilarious dancing, and for the latter I unleashed my inner ten year old boy and ran around to play a real life laser game with my best friends! You also got free ice cream and cake, result! I got a few moments captured, two from the party on Saturday with Eleanor, Lauren and Kyla and a selfie prior to the one on Sunday. 

So yeah haha that was so much fun, it was a refreshing change to not have to be working all weekend and instead getting to let my hair down! However, there is another part to this post! Over the weekend, my parents were celebrating their 18th wedding anniversary at Shakespeare's birthplace Stratford Upon Avon (very romantic! although I wouldn't say no to a kebab instead). Anyway, they unexpectedly brought myself and my brother some brilliant presents! They got me a Beatles DVD and Book set, a chocolate bar, pen and some Shakespeare love quotes badges, what an absolutely lovely thing to do! Here are some pics of them:

So yes what a smashing weekend and some equally fantastic gifts! I have already gotten straight into that chocolate bar and it's wonderful to have my parents back home!

I hope you guys enjoyed, did you have a good weekend?
