๐Ÿ’ป Guess whoโ€™s got a ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ด๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ? Oh yes, that is me. Over 3 years of hard work has led me to this and I feel so proud of myself. Starting a degree during Covid and homeschooling children and working is just insane when I think back.โฃ

โฃ
As itโ€™s an apprenticeship, through my employer, I still have some work to do to finish off. But my certificate is en routeโ€ฆ the hard work is done. I wouldnโ€™t have been able to do this if it wasnโ€™t for my employer giving me time to study and Hubby for giving me the space to work into the evenings and weekends. Itโ€™s a lot of time. And I will be forever grateful. โฃ
โฃ
I love learning and itโ€™s something Iโ€™ve always wanted to do, as I left uni at 20 without my ๐—Ÿ๐—ฎ๐˜„ degree. It was my biggest regret leaving so close to the end. But Iโ€™ve done it now and thatโ€™s the main thing. โฃ

Rambo was terrified of them, he would shake and not eat for days around this time of year. I often made him a den somewhere, so he could hide.

The most exciting family hotel in Crete

Aquila Rithymna Beach, located in Rethymno City in Crete Greece, is a premium hotel in Crete that stands out as a legend in tourist accommodation. Built beside the golden sandy beach & overlooking the infinite aquamarine sea, this grand luxury hotel offers deluxe accommodation, impressive restaurants, bars & swimming pools and top-class amenities & facilities for its guests. I love Greece and this family hotel in Crete looks wonderful. VIEW the POST

Our family room at Kiani Beach Resort

When we stayed at Kiani Beach Resort in Crete, we had such a fabulous time. Not only because Crete is absolutely gorgeous, but also because everything about the resort was just perfect. When it's a nice resort you can relax better as a family. Our family room, superior loft, was just impeccable and gave us so much space as a family. VIEW the POST

We had an amazing holiday in Crete over Easter, where we were completely spoilt by SeaCrete Hotels at Kiani Beach Resort. It was from here that we went on two excursions and hired a car from Kalives Travel to explore the beautiful island. VIEW the POST

Our holiday in Crete with SeaCrete hotels #familytravel

If you have been following my Instagram account, you will have seen from the photos and Insta stories that we recently took a trip to Crete, staying in the SeaCrete hotels. We havenโ€™t been abroad as a family for over 18 months and we were all very excited. I love flying and exploring new places. The last holiday we went on was to Greece, we went to Kos and Noah/Isla had the dreaded chicken pox. We loved Greece though and couldnโ€™t wait to see Crete.ย  VIEW the POST
