2nd blog post of 2016...sorry about that!

Hello everyone!

My good friend Alice mentioned to me the other day that it has been a year since I did my first blog post! Which was crazy to think about, a year has flown by!
But then I felt guilty. I let it slip, a lot, and this is my second blog post of the year...and it's practically August. For this I sincerely apologise!

Since my last blog a lot has happened in my little life!
I found a teaching assistant job and have been there since after Easter. The kids I work with are 6 and 7, smallest I've worked with within a school setting, but they're canny. I'm looking forward to being there at the start of the school year, gives more time to see how well they improve and grow before going up another school year.

In the same line as my job, I'm currently writing this from one of my favourite and most special places, Felden Lodge. Down here for the week with Boys' Brigade. Helping tutor the next lot of young leaders, which is quite terrifying since I only did this course 3 years ago! There'll be more BB news to come within the next few months so watch this space!

So for those of you who know me personally, you know that I get married next year...in 370 days to be precise! Now I've always been a planner, but planning a wedding is another kettle of fish.
There's so much to include that everytime I make a list, I'm always sure I forget something!
It's a terrifying and exciting time for everyone involved, but I'm sure we'll get through it!

In the next few weeks I'm going on some little adventures with the family. Edinburgh for the annual Edinburgh Military Tattoo, then off to London with the sister. We're going to don't the typical touristy thing of a bus sightseeing tour, then Harry Potter studios the next day. I'm far too excited!

So, for now I think that might be all! I do apologise for there not being a post for months on end, but I do intend to keep on top of this blog!

Until the next time! :) xx
