For the second week of Easter break we had our friends Christy, Jessica & Julia come to visit us. Tyler was soooo excited - she made a sign at the airport in case they didn't recognize us... Christy had actually booked her flight before we left last September so it was a long time comin' for their visit!
The girls at the airport... the first night we went to the movies and saw Zac Effron in 17 Again - it was fun to have a night out
The next day we went into London to see Wicked - The Appolo Theater is right by Buckingham Palace so we took a quick walk over to shoot some photos.
Christy & me
I dropped the girls & Christy off on Thursday to visit Hampton Court and on Friday they took the train into London - Tyler has those pictures - I'll have to get them from her! But the classic part of it is that it rained like cats and dogs on Friday while they took the Big Red Bus tour! Those pictures would be great to see.
On Saturday the boys had baseball - that's Ian with a lead off single (on 1st base) and Cman at bat - what a great shot!
Ian as catcher
In the meantime we girls went to Claremont Gardens near out home - it was beautiful grounds - we couldn't convince the girls to go to Windsor Castle - they were done sightseeing - we told them when they got older they'd regret not seeing the sights!!!
We had another surprise - our friend Tim was coming through town on his way to Dubai - so we all went to dinner together whilst the kids babysat. Tim is our neighbor he lives across the street in CA but we've know them since before we had kids - almost 16 years - his son Jared is Ian's bff - Tim took the train to our house and Ian & Lucas waited on the platform for him - when Mike told them he was coming they darted off running to him - so cute! Both Tim & Christy are both in our ward as well so we're all good friends :)
Sadly everyone had to leave and life resumed - the kiddies all got off to school on Monday (hooray for mom!)
Now onto the next event - Tyler, Tristan & I leave tomorrow for Italy! Can't wait to visit LuLu, Max & Pia!
How fun for Tyler to have her friends come for a visit. I am sure they will remember this trip for a very long time! :)
ReplyDeleteI am assuming those friends were twins? How fun for Tyler to have them for a visit. Have fun in Italy! I am so jealous!!
