Happy Camping!

So, this week we embarked on our first camping trip.. with the dog! After a successful camping trip with the kids back in July, we decided to take along our border collie Taz, as he loves being outdoors.. not to mention it saves us the £30 kennels fee!!

We went to a camp site called New Farm Holidays near Boston, and it was fab! There was lots of places to walk Taz, and the husband was happy as he got to have a proper campfire, and the kids were more than happy running around!

As you can see.. Taz loved every minute!!

We also took the opportunity to visit the farm where Taz was born, as he was bred in Boston. It was lovely as he got to run with all the other collies, including his Mum and Dad, and the kids loved being around the dogs (especially the puppies!!)

Overall a great holiday!! So great we have already booked again for next year :)

My £1000 for Breakthrough Breast Cancer!!

Well hello there! It seems I have been away from the blogging world for a while.. Being back at work seems to have taken up what free time I had! However from today I am determined to get back in on the action, so be prepared for lots of new blog posts ;)

So yesterday I signed up to Breakthrough Breast Cancers £1000 challenge.. So basically I have challenged myself to raise £1000 to help fund their valuable research, and to hopefully make life a little brighter for some of the men and women who are battling Breast Cancer, or know someone who is. I have two family members who have been diagnosed with Breast Cancer, but thankfully neither of them are terminal cases, unfortunately I have friends whose loved ones are not so lucky..

So my first event to raise some cash is an online auction which will take place on my facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Laceyschallenge this will be on October 29th 2013 so please if you would like to donate an item, or would like to bid come over and give us a like!!

I am also hoping to do a sponsored 5k swim, time and place to be confirmed but I will keep you posted!!

If you do fancy donating (give generously guys its a fabulous cause!!) Please visit my Just-Giving page at http://www.justgiving.com/Lacey-Young
