1 December - the plane ride




Those of you who have met here will never believe this...but Talia only cried once on the entire 9 1/2 hour plane ride from England to Seattle!! Both of the kids really enjoyed the flight. Tia Lois, on the otherhand, has been permanently cured of ever wanting children.

Max didn't sleep at all on the flight, although he passed out in the rental car before we even pulled out of the parking lot; Talia slept about 1.5 hours but was really a happy little one the entire time.

And now we are ready to begin our month-long Washington adventure...stay tuned!!

Our new headboard











We brought some tiles back from Spain on our last trip and had them built into a headboard, which arrived today. Thought you'd like to see it.

Xmas with the Homers and Walsgroves












We celebrated Christmas early this year at the Homer's new town of Harpenden. We had a great time catching up and it was a fun way to start off the holiday season.

5 November - Our Kids







I spent half a day at work today and missed the kids so much...I felt compelled to take pictures of them when Max got home from school. Talia had a fun morning with Sam and Jodie cleaning out the horse stable, giggling and cooing.
