South Shields...




I just found this blog post that I started writing in my drafts and not completed! How rude of me. It was about my trip up north last month! Can't believe it was a month ago already! Here I have some fun pictures from South Shields. The views were beautiful! 


It was such a beautiful evening, and even better catching up with my close friends. Giving me my very own private tour :).


It is always interesting walking around other seaside towns and comparing them to home. With it only being March it was very quiet but I can imagine the place will be thriving with holiday makers this summer. They had on display these lovely billboards with pictures of the seaside, peoples old postcards and holiday makers. Here are some of my favourites...




I hope to share with you some more pictures of me visiting local places soon, in the mean time we have just moved home and studio! Very Exciting!

The Snowdrop Spectacular!



Sometimes pictures say everything. So for this blog post, I will let you enjoy the lovely pictures from my trip to the 'Snowdrop Spectacular' at Burton Agnes Hall. 











Dylan was ready for a sit down after all that walking.

Trip to Helmsley Castle.



Yesterday, with the glorious weather, we went on a lovely day out exploring the Yorkshire countryside. On our travels we came across the small but beautiful village of Hovingham which to our delight was having a village market. 

We went for a look round and there was such a great variety of stalls. Many of which were home made foods with samples to try. I would definitely say I have a sweet tooth so this brownie stand caught my eye straight away. They produce 'Brown & Blonde' brownies which are names after the different chocolates used. 






After our chocolate experience we ventured on to Helmsley, which I also visited a couple of months ago. This time we chose to go have a look at the castle. 


These are a few snaps from walking around the castle. Even though this one below was only taken on my Iphone I love how it has captured the moody sky. We were lucky though it didn't burst out into rain!



The architecture was simply beautiful. Especially with the green fields as a backdrop. 




At the Castle you was able to explore the whole area around the building, being able to walk along the moat. Its crazy to imagine how this was like many years ago and simply amazing!
