The theme was Pirates and we all got into the spirit of things with personalised t shirts and teamwork. We rocked up on the Friday, pitched our tent and took part over the weekend in loads of activities, different challenges, sing-a-long's, we toasted marshmallows, won and lost in team games and even built a pirate ship! It was definitely a weekend to remember...</div><div><br /></div><div>So I based my layout on Stick it Down's double page sketch challenge for August.</div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

It's taken some planning and the agreement was that when I had secured a position at a school, we could get one. However, this was not to be due to COVID-19.

margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;">This year we had plans to spend a week in Conwy, Wales and we were fortunate that COVID-19 restrictions were lifted a week or so before our stay. However, lots of places we wanted to visit were closed - Carnarvon castle included, and the weather wasn't amazing either, but the cottage we stayed in was on a farm, so lots of chickens, sheep and a couple of dogs around! Cassandra loved being in charge of feeding the hens and collecting their eggs each day. We loved the visit to the lighthouse off Anglesey and Aber Falls waterfall was amazing. Lee and Nicholas climbed Snowdon, Cassandra went horse riding, we visited the beach and we all made memories on the Velocity 2 zip wire and the fforest coaster.</div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

So this is the first page I completed today of a two page layout of my half brother's wedding to Lorraine back in August 2016. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'd only been back in touch with him for a few years, but was thrilled when he not only invited us all to attend the day, but also asked Cassandra to be one of Lorraine's bridesmaids too. She was made up to wear a pretty dress and shoes and have her hair all curled!</div>

<br />
I created this layout of Nicholas practicing his goal kicks, whilst he had his broken thumb the other year.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-aGJFz8iCbe8/XwhDY-xzQ6I/AAAAAAADZb8/-3wRhNIIY20Vdp-C_ojucYeWxJUK2aXZwCLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/Kick%2Bnicholas.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1419" data-original-width="1425" height="318" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-aGJFz8iCbe8/XwhDY-xzQ6I/AAAAAAADZb8/-3wRhNIIY20Vdp-C_ojucYeWxJUK2aXZwCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/Kick%2Bnicholas.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
I used the sketch from Stick it Down and took inspiration from ARTastic's July challenge of sport and used pen to finish off my layout around the outside.<br />
