[Ad- gifted experience] Earlier this year, Robin and Kai (along with Dann and I) went to MCM Comic Con in London, very much enjoying seeing everything there is to see for another year. In October, Amelia had a day off of school and Kai wanted to go at the weekend when he was off school so we went one day with Amelia and one day with Kai, who both have very different preferences at events like this!

Every month, Amelia and I go to one of the cupcake classes held by Sweet Designs by Jennie. We always have a fantastic time making cupcakes and chatting. Amelia is fully a teenager, and it’s just so important to have this one on one time with her, where we hang out and connect. Now, normally these classes are very themed to different times of year and holidays, but Buzzy Bees is actually a class that was designed before we started going. We are trying to make them all, so Jennie kindly put it back into the rotation.

Often, we go to all of these sort of ‘Instagram-able’ places hoping they are as good as the videos seem. When I went along to the Museum of Ice Cream (which had a bit of a price tag) I was hoping that maybe, maybe it was as good as it might be. You may have known that I spent a lot of time in Upstate New York eating soft serve, every single day, for a month. So I absolutely love ice cream and were excited to get my Ice Cream name and start tasting.
[Ad- gifted experience] Amelia is a big fan of Coraline, the first movie created by LAIKA, so we were both very excited to go to LAIKA presents Wildwood: The Exhibition at The Design Museum London. I work with the Roblox game Coraline, which has been having a lot of Wildwood updates, so I had actually seen the Wildwood movie several times, at several different stages of completion. Seeing the movie and then seeing the exhibition was truly a unique and fantastic experience!

This year, we have really ramped up the amount of live music we have gone to see! A bit after seeing My Chemical Romance, Dann and I went along with Quang to see Palace Bowl Presents Jimmy Eat World, along with their supporting act Rise Against. They did also have Jay Som and The Get Up Kids playing, but we were most interested in Rise Against and Jimmy Eat World, so went along for only those.
