Birthday in Brighton

ByLaura

It was my birthday last week, and rather than spend it at home editing pictures or sanding windows (yes the house makeover is still going strong!) we decided to take a little trip down to Brighton.  I’ve never been before and was very much looking forward to exploring and breathing in some sea air.

We stayed at Square, which is a lovely boutique hotel just off the sea front (thanks Mr & Mrs Smith guide!)…

Brighton is pretty far away…we were exhausted after spending most of the day in the car!

Figured we should go see where we were though…

  • Just Us

    In the down time before ‘wedding season’ is in full swing we are enjoying having lots of fun play time with Albert.  He loves being outside, marvelling at the trees and the sounds of the birds; we are going to have so much fun this summer when he can totter around and really explore! If…
