The Best Holiday Ever:)

Over the half term, Jess and I set off for Tenerife! Tenerife is one of the Canary Islands, which is technically part of Spain even though it is close to Africa.

This was one of the most amazing holidays I have had. It came at a perfect time and we both wanted to do the exact same things: Relax by the pool, tan, read and drink sangria. We did exactly that!! We left early on a Saturday morning.. I was leaving my house at 4:40! Thankfully Josh dropped me off :) We flew to Madrid and then another 2.5 hours to Tenerife.

We made it to the hotel and were upgraded to a suite!! It was such a clean and nice room and I was so impressed!! Night one.. drank some sangria and discovered we both knew how to play crib! Basically the rest of the week just involved playing crib! Our first day by the pool was windy but so nice.. the next few days we chose a better spot with less wind! We spent two mornings wandering the town and going to the harbour and had two of our dinners in town as well. One at a tapas restaurant and one at a Mexican restaurant!The weather was amazing for the rest of the days and we both came home with a tan.. and freckles!

It was the perfect relaxing holiday that we both needed and I was so happy to be sharing it with my best friend! So many memories were made and next year we are going to try a different island!

January and February

It is just so hard to remember to post on here! This post will cover all of January and February!

Our first weekend back at school, Jessica came to Camberley to visit me! It was a lot of fun and I showed her around the town I adore :) The next weekend I went to a wine tasting with two teachers from my school and it was nice to relax and not talk about work !

I saw a lot of Jessica this term which I am so so thankful for!! One weekend I went to Windsor... which I LOVE. We went to Windsor castle and shopping, obviously. We also went into London the next two weekends for some sightseeing, catching up with a friend from Winnipeg and shopping! I see something new every time I go into London. Ask me a year ago and I would have never thought that going into London would turn into a regular weekend outing for me.. but it does. Things have certainly changed!

If I am not in London or visiting Jess, I am just relaxing around Camberley with Ben and Josh and also working! I have also been seeing my new friend Demi, who is a brand new teacher as well from Australia! So nice to have a friend that is a girl close by... as I mostly just see Ben and Josh!

This is the hardest thing I have ever done in my life but I am growing as a teacher and a person because of it. My kids keep me going and I am so thankful to be the role model of 24 little ones.

Half term was spent in the lovely Canary Islands... but that deserves its own post! :)

Spoiled :)
