As a regular reader you’re probably wondering where we are and if we are still playing.
We are here but not for long.
We’re a military family and currently on the move.
We’re currently in the US and will be moving next month. Mr Playactivities will be deploying for a year. While the boys and I will be returning to the UK to establish our next home.
Yes we will be apart for about a year.
It’s been a troublesome move for many reasons and the saga continues. We really feel like we’re living in a soap opera. Military moves I’m sure are like many domestic moves- full of ups and downs and new obstacles to overcome. Moving internationally with kids and a pet is a whole other level. Things have had to give for sanities sake.
I have a bunch of activities and podcasts in the works and will be working to get these up including a giveaway next week. Please bear with us this coming month as we move and spend huge quantities of quality time together offline before we spend a year apart.
Thanks for your support.
