reflecting on England

i have been meaning to write since June on our trip to England. it was a great trip for the family to take. we went to see all of our family and friends and have everyone meet the kids. the kids were awesome on all the flights despite AA craziness. can not believe how awesome they were. c1 was 8 months old at the time, perfect timing on our part. before she started really moving. she started crawling the last day we were there and going fast ever since.

england was beautiful and restful as a big family vacation goes. we had a ‘home’ away from home with my oH’s parents home. it was such a relief to sort of keep a routine going. i wish we had more opportunities to repeat this opportunity. its so far and now, so expensive.

family and friends were amazing. we caught up with almost everyone. we had nights out with family, so many kids for d5 to meet. days with family, i learned to knit (mostly) from my mother-in-law… nice day trips, our best was a day out with d5 in Oxford. got to see some Harry Potter film locations. very cool.

the best part of it all was the opportunity that d5 has had the chance to meet and get to know ALL of his cousins. he meet so many cousins and he seemed to be related to everyone. he thought it was so cool. he played football with his big cousins and he remembers everything and we gave him a photo album of all his adventures while he was there. we are so blessed to be d5’s parents.
