The girls had a good time at the cinema today - Minions for the win! One of the occasional perks of Ians job where they made minions rush :) Lily was more pleased by the free popcorn than free cinema :) #theminions #minion #minions #gameloft #barcelona #instabcn #bcn #losminions #kevin #bob #stuart #popcorn #minionsrush

Note the minimum age limits. More proof that spain thinks differently and yet to hear of any major injuries due to lack of common sense. Its for the festa end of june. More expensive setup box is only €150. #santmarti #fireworks #petardos #commonsense #bcn #barcelona #instabcn #igersbarcelona

Summer means summer hair :) obviously purple for Fay but surprisingly Lily wanted blue 'like the sea' rather than pink. Still hard to think we will have a highschooler in September. Hair colour by Directions hair dye. Washes out in a few weeks but will be reapplied. The end have been decoloured ie bleached to make the colours more vibrant as the ends will get cut before school starts again. #purple #purplehair #lila #blau #cabelllila #purplehairdontcare #bluehair #bluehairdontcare #lariche #larichedirections #directions #directionshairdye #hairdye #dye #cabell #cabello #bcn #instabcn #instagood #instalove #instadaily #instakids #igerbcn #igersbarcelona #nerdgirl #geekgirl #summerhair

Lily gave me her bear to keep ME safe. She has a big heart. Wandering about though checking the pager every 30 seconds makes me feel even more lost. The staff here are awesome and made sure I have understood whats happening. #kidsareawesome #teddybear #santjoandedeu (at Hospital Sant Joan de Déu Barcelona)

I have a brave girl. Today is surgery day and she is handling it like a champ. More interested in how all the machinery works. Fingers crossed no complications and we'll be home by lunchtime. Ps usa friends - total cost $0. Well worth the $300 extra tax a month we pay. #kidsareawesome #hospital #obamacare #bcn #barcelona #santjoandedeu #instabcn (at Hospital Sant Joan de Déu Barcelona)

My awesome girl off on her 2 day end of year/end of primary school field trip to PortAventura (adventure park). High school in 4 months O.O She is determined to forge her own path and for that I am proud for her. Ps Oilers represent!! Makes a difference in the sea of FCBarca strips. Pity fcb ice hockey dont sell jerseys. #purplehair #purplehairdontcare #nhl #oilersnation #oilers #hockey #fcbhoqueigel #bcn #barcelona #instabcn #igersbarcelona #igerbcn #bcn_life #fieldtrip (at PortAventura)

A lovely day for a bike ride. An extra school holiday makes for a nice excuse to enjoy the sunshine before it gets too hot after lunch. #bcn #barcelonainspira #barcelona #casavicens #quadskates #rollerskates #gracia #instabcn #igersbarcelona #igerbcn #instadaily (at Casa Vicens)
