Sara-Yasmin: Family

After I had completed Summer Camp which was fun but totally dragged on, I headed back to the U.K. I spent about a week or so in London and then headed back to Solihull where I spent the rest of the holidays. I then headed back to London a few days before my flight to pack all the things I had ordered plus teaching resources for Year 1.

Whilst I was back home, I spent time with my family, helped my mum with displays in her school, met up with friends, walked a lot, shopped essentials for Oman, visited Umberslade Farm - childhood memories, relaxed and looked after my mum who had a minor foot operation.

I have put together a collection of photos that show variety of fun I had this summer!

Home for me is at my parents' home in Solihull. I love going back home to spend quality time with the family, I really appreciate it and cherish it as I have lived independently in London for 4 years now. It must be the time of year as when I went home this time I didn't miss London one little bit and actually missed everyone from the moment I got back on the train!

As a Muslim, my family and I don't tend to celebrate Christmas in terms of the gifts instead we like to get the whole family together for a delicious Roast Turkey dinner. My mum has always cooked the 'Christmas' meal since forever and it is the one time of the year that everyone in the family comes to our house for a good old family gathering! Our family LOVE our food and we always have lots of it! I really enjoyed catching up with everyone and can't wait until the next family get-together :)

Here are a few photographs I took when I went back home for Christmas. Enjoy :)
