Lighten up!

After Aussie launched their new lighter range of conditioners they challenged us Angels to lighten up our life this Spring.  Every year on Good Friday, me and my family walk up Bredon Hill and I thought I would share some of the photos that Mark and I took this time :) 


The weather was absolutely gorgeous (apparently it hit 27 °C whilst we were up there!) and I drank so much water too. I wasn't wearing the most flattering outfit (see below) but it meant I was able to clamber over fences without ripping my legs to shreds unlike some of the people we saw! I'm not a fan of trainers though! 


The views from the top were absolutely breathtaking and you could literally see for miles! 


Best of all though, were the cute animals we saw on the walk up... there were sheep and lambs galore...


plus, my favourite, these Hereford cows and the most adorable calves :D


The idea of the Aussie challenge is to get us to lighten up our lives and I know I always feel better if I get some fresh air [despite my aversion to being outside!] and being at home means that I do a lot more walking, mainly due to the lack of buses :P However, being back at uni means that I have a bit more time on my hands so I plan to do lots of walking over the next few weeks and also head back to the gym...

This video should help me be a bit more active though as these exercises don't look too strenuous and even I should be able to manage them :) Plus, with a t-shirt that looks as good as this, who wouldn't want to move a bit more?!

Even my hair was co-operating! 

What will you do to lighten your life this Spring?
