Daisie turns 3!

 ***WARNING!! Extra picture heavy post***














Today for Daisie's birthday treat we headed off to London and paid the sea life centre and M&M world a visit.
London didn't seem to be what Daisie thought it would be when we first arrived she kept repeating I want to go to London after a good few times of telling her we are in London she went quiet, We decided to walk from London Victoria to the sea life centre in south bank a long and very busy walk but with the weather being so nice it was nice to spend it walking rather than on a train/bus.
Once we were in the sea life centre we had to walk over a clear walk way that had the tank of sharks underneath Daisie was really hesitant to walk over it as she thought she would fall in bless her :')
Despite the huge que behind us she wasn't in a hurry to walk over just in case she did fall in.
I was pretty disappointed with M&M world, I expected it to be pricey and that wasn't a problem but if the tubes of colours that were £1.99 for 1OOg had scales I'd have purchased some but because they hadn't I wouldn't know how much I have spent until I was paying and that really put me off! 
I'd much rather watch what we were spending but I suppose that's were they catch you.
They had some lovely little sets you could buy and better yet you could personalize your m&ms too.

The british 1Ok run London 2O14










Today me and Issy headed to London along with my mum, niece,nephews and sister in-law to support and cheer on my big brother in the British 1Ok!
Sadly we didn't pick the greatest of spots and only saw him start off and missed him crossing the finish line while we scrambled our way there :(
It started to rain so we headed under the bridge to keep dry, just as my brother was coming up right at the other side my mum happened to get poo'd on by a pigeon LMAO! 

Wow the emotions! 
Before the race had even started I was welling up, THEN seeing each different story with people running with one leg, colostomy bags, full army wear just wow!
It took all I had not to run up to them and just give them a massive hug.
During the run Issy asked why we couldn't run so we plan to take part in some kind of run/walk next year too. 
With not much training due to an ingury my brother still managed to complete the full 1Ok in O.5O.56 being a new personal best
Needless to say I am one very proud little sister :) 


My brother ran in aid of help for heroes and it's not to late to donate you can do so 'here'

British 10K London Run 2014 - Help for heroes









                                  




My brother Gavin is running another 1Ok run this year in aid of help for heroes 
proud really doesn't come close, he started doing runs back in 2O1O if I remember rightly.
Every donation no matter how big or small is very much appreciated 
I'm hoping I manage to get up to London to watch him run this year.
Every time I watch the video my other brother JR made of the run he took part in 2O11 I get goose bumps and end up welling up watching the love as he waves goodbye to join the race.
