Which resort did you stay at? @emily

[@stellamurphy4938]

I saved watching this for this morning, just sat in bed with a coffee watching amd dreaming lol, what an amazing experience xx

[@rebeccaclinemeservy]

Oh, gosh, that song 🎵 😍 (you all know the one!!) "About to leave, I'm already packing.." It just puts a massive smile on my face. 😁 So fun to see your family enjoying your time with each other. You are a positive advocate for loving and strong families. ❤️

[@sallymunley2824]

It’s the Norris song now. 😊

[@AGUSTERAN1]

This is so wholesome! When I moved to the UK (I'm originally from Ecuador -South America) I thought that I will travel around the world, I was starving to see it all 😅, well, now I'm lucky if I leave London's zone 4, but thanks to you I am visiting so many beautiful places and I'm grateful for that, we haven't never ever had a holiday (my family is really alike to yours in age and members) so when I see all what you do with your kids I start making my bucket list! The plankton was the most gorgeous thing I've seen! Thanks for sharing!

[@mrsemilynorris]

Thank you so much for watching! It was so cool - we feel so lucky to have seen it xx

[@saraharrowsmith215]

I can honestly say that July-August are the absolutely best months. I’ve been lucky enough to visit the Maldives 6 times and I found those months better than March. Don’t be put off visiting in the summer xx

[@shannonclaire7800]

Was it really busy in the summer? I have 4 children and I worry about them getting lost in the crowds

[@Pangajck]

Just incredible how family centric you made this milestone. This is sweet maturity. Absolutely beautiful that u showcase that such milestones can be celebrated with kids and it can be so fun for all....what better than to build stronger family bonds. Thanks

[@mrsemilynorris]

Thank you so much! We did have a few ask why we were taking the kids but I wouldn’t have gone anywhere without them xx

[@kristinperry9918]

Life doesn't get any better does it? Pure joy. Thanks for sharing!

[@mrsemilynorris]

Couldn't agree more!❤❤❤❤

My husband and I went to this same resort for our honeymoon 12 years ago. It’s total unrecognisable from then as they’ve changed it so much. Happy birthday 🎉

[@Thisorganizedmother]

This is an incredible family trip! It makes going to the Maldives with kids look doable. I love that you all enjoyed!

[@anneross5347]

Thoroughly enjoyed this vlog! I am sat with my feet up by the fire with a hot drink and just chilling, thank you for sharing your experiences. I will never go on a holiday like that but just watching you and your lovely family relaxing and enjoying all that was on offer left me feeling calm and relaxed. Thank you Emily and happy belated birthday I bet it’s one you will never forget. 💕♍️🎂🎂🎂🎂

[@mrsemilynorris]

Aw that sounds lovely! Glad you enjoyed it! Xxx

[@Nina-dm2vw]

Emily this makes me so happy to see you doing something so special for yourself and your fam. I’ve watched your channel for years and just love your energy and how much of an amazing mum you are. Well deserved break for you gorgeous, happy birthday 🎉

You so deserve all this joy, Emily, you're an amazing hardworking mom! Your wonderful husband and boys deserve it too! So glad to see you all making these memories. The kids snorkeling looks so magical!

[@mrsemilynorris]

Aw wow thank you so much! xx

[@kaywalker1008]

Amazing video🥰we sailed around the islands on a dive boat for 7 nights just before covid. The sharks are nurse sharks. Very friendly and as you saw quite large. They are gentle though xx

[@meriemeelorch8311]

Happy 40th birthday! And thank you for allowing us to travel with you to the Maldives through this beautiful vlog! 🙏

[@kellytilley907]

What an amazing holiday. Such beautiful memories you are making with your boys 💙

[@mrsemilynorris]

It was so nice. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@chrisgriffiths3629]

We did a night shark swim , reef sharks wont hurt you , the sting rays have to be watched more , re the turtles you shouldn't touch them or swim over them really . Amazing footage and the para glide was fantastic !!!

[@mrsmc125]

Omg I'm a wreck. I was sobbing when you did the paragliding. It's my bucket list trip too. Never thought of it as being a family holiday but think my boys would love it. ❤

[@creativereindeer]

My son and daughter also loved the various atolls too and my son got engaged there , which felt special as I had first taken the children there when they were your kids age ! Great footage , your kids and you will always hold this dear , it started my son to keep a 6ft freshwater fish tank and they choose this place over Disney , every time !!! Swimming with turtles and rays was amazing !! xx
