Some of our favorite memories of the week, for posterity . . .
the grouchy street performer
"What a glorious day!"
"After this car boys, GO!"
duck whistles, especially on the bus
"I was not scared!"
seeing the sights in London through the windows of the infamous black taxi cabs, even better when you are facing backwards
Brooks' love/hate, real/fake relationship with broccoli
the kind strangers that saved Julie's life on many a London street corner
Grandma's stinky basement bar, with such lovely wallpaper no less
Hotel Nelson offering 5 star service and amenities, including toiletries upon arrival, especially hand milled soap, and morning childcare and breakfast service so that one can enjoy sleeping really late
the Hyde Park stalking
Joe, repeatedly: "I bet people are dying to get in here"
Cafe Nerd
the uniformed driver, hat and all, only the best for you guys!
Lindsay, to the right
Welcome
I began this blog in 2008 as we picked up and moved our family from Dallas, Texas to London, England as a result of a fabulous job opportunity for my husband. My primary goal was to stay in touch with family and friends as well as begin an online family photo album to preserve our precious memories. With 3 young boys at home and life moving at a breakneck speed, I found that by taking even a few moments to capture a thought or a photo or a memory from our day provided a much needed outlet and a place to be a bit more intentional and present. Our family enjoyed every single moment of our two years in London before a new role was offered to my husband which also required a relocation, this time to Boston, Massachusetts. We settled in Wellesley in September of 2009 and loved life in our teeny-tiny Norman Rockwell New England town. After 4 fabulous years in Boston, our family relocated yet again, this time back to Dallas. We feel so fortunate to have been given these amazing opportunities to live and visit and experience life in different places and we certainly look forward to many more adventures!
