My weekend in pictures

As any of my regular readers will know (because I bang on about it so much), is that I don't really get to see my boyfriend that much as he is currently living in Surrey, and I'm in Leeds, so it is quite difficult to get the time to see each other and find the money to travel, so it's always really nice when he comes up to see me! We decided to go to York on Saturday as it has always been a special place for us, it is also such a beautiful city! Although the main purpose of our visit was too find him some birthday presents (it's his 21st in a few days), we also had a little walk around through the park and down by the river, which is always nice for some alone time! Of course the day ended with a cheeky nandos ;)

Sunday was also quite a chilled out day, we went to the cinema to see 'Home'- I'm quite confused as to why it was showing as it doesn't come out till the 20th.... But hey ho it was a really funny film! (Despite the majority of the other people in the cinema being under 10 years old)... Who doesn't love a kids film?! This was also followed by a trip to Mr. pretzel... If you haven't tried there cinemon pretzel sticks and Nutella dip you haven't lived! The weekend seemed to fly by but we definitely made the most of it! It was such a busy weekend as I also had to go home on Sunday night for a placement interview on Monday, fingers crossed! 

To finish, I can't go without mentioning the lady featured in this post, she's my great grandma and celebrated her 96th birthday on Friday! I can't believe it, she doesn't look 96 at all!!

What have you all been up to this weekend, leave me a comment below! :)

My Valentines Weekend

Yet again, this post is a tad late. But as I said I was spending the weekend with my boyfriend so I just didn't have the time to get this post put together! You probably already know that my relationship is pretty long distance, like over 300 miles of long distance, so this weekend was extra special as I don't really get to see Kyle that much. I literally had the best valentines day, he came up on Friday evening and Saturday we woke up to each other's prezzies (I will show you what I got below), then we decided to go to York for the day, it's kind of a special place for us so what better place to spend valentines day?! We never really go all out for valentines day but we did do a little shopping, ate quite a few dinky donuts, braved the freezing cold, and had a delicious Pizza Hut for tea. When we got back we spent the evening watching take me out, ordered more takeaway and I personally consumed a little too much rose, oops. Sunday we went to see the Kingsman at the cinema, I know what you're thinking, you went to the cinema and didn't see fifty shades?! I'm going at the weekend with my girls haha. But to end the day we had a little mooch around the shops before he left for his train, a short but lovely weekend! 

Anyway, on with the prezzies.....

These are literally the best valentines day presents I have recidved, it may not look like much but we never really make a big deal of buying expensive presents for valentines day and prefer to treat each other massively for Christmas and birthdays. I think it's always more special when a lot of thought goes into the presents rather than money! 

TWO HEARTS GIFT SET- LUSH

Right now my blog is practically an advertisement for LUSH products, I CANT HELP MYSELF. I love everything from that store it's all so pretty and smells gorge! This set in particular includes the heartthrob bubbleroon, love locket ballistic and Cupid's love soap. I cannot wait to try these out!

ROSE BUBBLEBAR-LUSH

Shock, it's a LUSH product. I literally spotted this a couple days before Valentines day and posted a picture on Instagram, how cute are they?! And thankfully Kyle got the hint and surprised me with one, I bet this is going to make my bath look ridiculously girly! 

ME-TO-YOU VALENTINES GIFT SET

I don't actually know where this is from, but who doesn't want a teddy bear and some chocolate on valentines day?!

COPPER HEART PHOTO FRAME

This was such a lovely surprise, I love having photo frames around my room to add my own personal touch, this frame is just the cutest and I am such a huge fan of rose gold/ copper colours right now which makes it perfect! The sentimentality behind this gift is also so cute, he told me we had to take a valentines day picture to put in it, soppy I know!

HARIBO SUPERMIX

I could quite happily eat my own body weight in haribos, so yet again this gift was spot on!

I would absolutely love to know how you spent valentines day, and hear about any gifts you received, leave me a comment below! :) 

#Blogmas Day 19| My weekend in pictures

I haven't done a post like this in absolutely ages so I thought since I've had such a good weekend I would share a few pictures with you all!

 My weekend started on Friday when I finally got picked up to come home for Christmas, honestly I have wanted to home home from uni for so long I just couldn't wait! When I got back I was literally so excited to see my kittens, love them! Friday night was one of the best, despite only being able to go out in the very small town that I live in, it was so good seeing all my best friends from home! I don't know about you, but I would rather have a night out at home where I know everyone, than in Leeds where I know very few people! 

Saturday was such a good day, I went to York with my dad to do some last minute Christmas shopping, despite it being freezing cold, York is such a beautiful place I just love it! When we got home I made some Christmas decorations (I can't help being so festive) hehe. 

Sunday I went to the metro centre with my boyfriend, I haven't seen him so long it was amazing! I also haven't been to the metro centre in ages so I was so so excited! We went to see paddington, (I highly reccomend) it's so funny! I can't help but love kids films haha. After this we went to Brewsters, if you've heard of it it's just like a chain of pub restaurants, nothing fancy but sometimes I love it more than nandos or frankie and benny's or something! Anyway, my evening ended with some Christmas wrapping with the help of my kitten miffy, she kind of just laid across all the presents and tried to unwrap them all but nevermind!
