If you read this blog regularly, then you will know I usually post a weekend discoveries round up, of wonderful things I have found on the internet in the last week.​

As we have a 3 day bank holiday weekend in the UK, I shall be posting my usual weekend discoveries tomorrow.

But today is dedicated to our big boy, Sammy. Yesterday was his fourth birthday. The Circus extravaganza party is this coming Saturday, so there was only one place we could have gone on his actual birthday. A Circus.

​I have masses of photos to share this week, but after a long day of fun, high jinks and slapstick we have all crashed out. 

So I will give you a peek into our day, to get you in the mood for what will be a birthday themed blog this week!​

He is absolutely our clown. He makes us laugh until our sides ache and melts our hearts. Even when he tests us to our limits, it only take a split second for the atmosphere to change with a cheeky look or hilarious sentence that doesn't quite make sense.​

Don't grow up too fast darling boy we love you just the way you are.​

I love Twitter. And I love the random collection of photos I end up tweeting over the course of a week. 

This was my week, in screenshots taken straight from Twitter.  How sweet was my husband's Facebook status update. (Excuse the blury photos and slight cropping but I wanted to show you how they end up jumbled together!)

Follow me here for more of this... 

You can guess by the last pictures that we have a birthday in the house this week. 

Today is Sammy's 4th Birthday. The house is decorated, there is a crepe paper trail from his bedroom to a pile of present downstairs and a trampoline adored with bunting and banners!  

We are off to a real big top Circus today! Happy days at Happy's Circus! 

Have a great bank holiday everyone! 

Last week I posted about my favourite, now slightly dog eared magazines. If you missed it you can read it here.​

Whilst I love indulging in thumbing real textured pages full of loveliness, I most often read online. Blogs, articles, (yes the sidebar of shame on the Daily Mail homepage) ​links from others and random things my husband sends me like this. A sloth crossing a road. 

Here are my favourite 5 online magazines. Move over Enid Blyton online editions are the next big thing!​

Number 1 - Styled. By A Subtle Revelry. Beyond Awesome. Totally free. Even more awesome.

Number 2 - Sweet Paul. ​For foodies and lovely life lovers. This month is a special kids's edition with free downloadable Circus Party accessories. It's like it was made just for me! 

Number 3 - Creating Vintage Charm. ​You can read their beautiful blog as well as purchasing the e-magazine for $8.00. A nice treat and I might just have an exciting article to share in their September issue. Watch this space.

Number 4 - Metropolis. A freebie with the most eclectic ​content. Well you'd expect nothing less from Japan's No1 English Magazine. Have a read of the latest issue here.

Number 5 - Matchbook Magazine. A field guide to a charmed life. Oh how I would love my life to look like the ones in the magazine. Definitely worth getting lost in for an hour or so. I am currently working my way through the archive. ​

What are you reading? Any good tips for me? Happy Sunday everyone.​
