i stole this ring from my friend...i say stole..more just said, "oh, that's awesome, can i have that?" for him to turn around and say "...um, yeah...if you want."so just got back from my little woodland week away with my family. it was really nice as i went with my parents, grandparents and sister. it was god to escape for a while, just to be somewhere else. living within the trees always makes me think of twilight...and mainly because i first read the twilight series years ago on holiday in the same place.
as well as chilling out, i had lots of random adventures. these included, going swimming, going to walks, playing cards and board games..and other cute things. mum, Victoria and me went to paint pieces of pottery again this year. i was thinking of doing another plate, but i walked in, and there on the shelf was a dalek staring back at me...needless to say i grabbed that.
we also went to Longleat. i have not been there in a few years, but i was really looking forward to this little adventure. Longleat is such a wonderful place.
we walked through and looked at lots of cute animals including meerkats (which my grandad loves, so he had a great time). i also held this:
...its crazy, but i didn't feel scared at all. weird. i thought i would want to run away screaming...so if i spider appears in my room one night, i don't think i will be scared anymore after holding this one. we also went around the house, which as always was beautiful and made me want to live there, even though there are ghosts. we also ran into Lord Bath as he was taking his dogs out or in, and he said hello to us..that was pretty cool. i also went on a little tour to look at his murals, which were beautiful and gave you an insight to Lord Bath and his art. the whole place is just beautiful. the sun also came out that day for us. 
the rest of the holiday was spent laughing lots, drawing, taking photos, listening to my sister say the weirdest things in her sleep, playing lots of games of cards, drinking so much tea, eating so many sweets, watching glee while my family laugh at me for singing and squealing, watching tv late, all staying up until 3ish in the morning, talking to far away friends about up and coming plans next week, buying gifts for friends and just being me. its nice. i had such fun.

hello----i had a lovely chilled out time away. being in the woods was very twilight like, which me and my sister quite liked. the weather was nice. went for walks, went swimming late night, painted a plate Scott pilgrim style, brought gifts for friends, visited a cute town, watched movies, had log fires, and took photos...which i sadly lost to a rubbish new memory card, that i had to take back to the shop the other day, so bye bye photos...bah..bad times.
i had a lovely time away on holiday. i loved being in the woods surrounded by giant trees, green-ness, quiet noise, earth, animals and even more trees. i am deeply in love with trees at the moment.
my days away consisted of; swimming, bike riding, walking, crazy golf, trees, late nights, early mornings, long car drives, pick n mix sweets, toy shops, movie nights, home made pop corn, my mother's pancakes, chalk boards, giant cookies, walking on the sand, messing around with my sister, painting pottery, singing, eating 'weirds', buying presents for friends, Polaroid photos, filling in my drawing journal, buying cool stuff, reading twilight again, and taking photos.
i had such a wonderful time away..and didn't want to come back home...back to normal life. ah i wish i could go back into the woods. i really do miss it. i am fully in love with the views..oh how i miss it already...
i had to add this photo in somewhere...my dad was washing up (even though we had a dishwasher at our Villa?!?!..and it was his holiday..) and he shouted, 'Nicola, come look at this, you will want to bring your camera..". and it was this little face in the sink, i couldn't stop smiling.
i enjoyed drawing and writing in my drawing journal, i just need to keep it up.
my wonderful bag of holiday goodies! including the lovely bag. :)
i am now off to read your lovely blogs! and then after to watch the office, an American workplace, while eating holiday chocolates, and maybe read a little too.
