Here are a few photos from our Solstice Evening. Papa had to work, so it was just the three kiddos and me, a quiet celebration this year. We lit the bonfire, toasted marshmallows and ate smores. We chatted about summer, and wrote our summer bucket list. It was a beautiful evening. An evening to connect with each other and the earth. A time to plan our summer. We’re all full of excitement having made our list, we’re starting off today with a trip to the beach! Did you celebrate the solstice?

    Ah what a lovely way to celebrate it. I’ve never tried toasted marshmallows either! Must add that to my summer list! x

    Looks like a lovely solstice celebration. It’s these quiet moments at home that I’m learning are often my favourite times.

    I’ve never attempted to make smores! but I love the idea of spending the evening in the garden, taking the time to think of things that make you happy and making exciting plans!

    Really love this idea – might try it next year! I’ve always loved the date as it’s my mum’s birthday, and I remember being fascinated by Stonehenge when I was younger x
