Time flies!
Wow! So much has happened since our last post! We got home from England safely (after an exhausting 10 hour flight with a 10 month old). Actually Taylor was great and slept for about 6 hours on the plane. The tiring part was being up for 24 hours by the time we got home and in bed. We had a wonderful time in England though and hope to go back soon. We would like to see more of London since we only spent part of a day there. We did go to Bath one day and saw the old Roman Baths. That was pretty neat to see.
After our trip we stayed busy right up through Thanksgiving. Becky came from Atlanta to stay with us for the weekend. We went spent the holiday at Eric's grandparent's house and then Taylor got to spend two nights with her Mimi and Jojo. Rachel and Becky went to watch A&M BTHO t.u. while Eric went to the farm with his grandfather.
So far in December we have been going and going with Christmas parties and such. We also had Taylor's 1st Birthday party on the 13th. We held it a week early since we're flying to see my sister and the rest of the family on her actual birthday. She had lots of fun playing with her friends and eating chocolate cake! The party was lots of fun. Here are some pictures from the last month. Enjoy!

Our trip to England
We're in England right now. We are staying on a farm that has three cottages for vacationers. It's called 'Nailey Cottages'. The farm is about two miles from the town of Marshfield, which is between Bristol and Bath. Bristol is a pretty large city on the west coast of England. It is absolutely beautiful here!! The English countryside is just gorgeous. Rolling hills, small country lanes, and hedges and stone walls to border everything. We went to Stonehenge on Sunday. It was a neat place to see. I do have to say it looks smaller in person than you would imagine. Yesterday(Monday) we took a day trip to London. It was about a 1 1/2 hour drive each way. Of course, with us, you have to double that since we tend to take wrong turns on the roundabouts and roads just don't run in a straight line here. Eric has done really well with driving us around on the left side of the road and just so you know, escalators are on the left side system as well! We took a double decker bus tour in London so we could see everything fairly quickly. We also took the Tube (subway). We'll post more pictures as we get them but here are a few from what we've done so far. Enjoy!
