All You Need Is Love

...but flowers are still nice. Especially when they're sent from England.

I Love You, Justin.

Uncles & Grandmas & Travels...Oh My!

Brothers
Uncle Robert and Bryn at Stonehenge
Christ's Church Meadow
Mom, Bryn, and Me in Bath
The very beginning of our journey, driving to the London airport.
Thanks to an overbooked flight we flew business class and are now both $1200 dollars richer in flight money...saaweet!
Bryn enjoyed the classical music station
"And since we let our {business} class passengers do pretty much whatever they want, here {s}he is..." (Yes, that is the cockpit.)
Bryn's disposition after the long plane ride was very much the opposite of what I had anticipated. She was so happy to be in America!
Uncle Cody drove all the way to SF to help us with all the luggage (we needed 2 vehicles to carry it all). Thanks so much, Cody!

Why is it that whenever there is a ton to say I'm not in the mood to say it? Dunno, just one of those things I suppose. Hence, a brief synopsis of a few of the past month's events: Justin's brother, Robert, came to visit us in Oxford. It was fun to see him and to meet his new gf, Shalva. A couple days before they left, my mom arrived. (And we thought our flat was small with just the three of us...ha.) We all saw some sights together, and my mom and I spent an afternoon at a spa in Bath. It was very posh and totally awesome. Huge shout-out to the hubs for such a rad mo's day gift, "Muuah!" My mom conquered her phobia of flying (with the help of heavy doses of medication) to come help me fly back to the U.S. with Bryn. I'm so grateful she was there to help me. I don't know how I would have done it without her! I was super nervous about the 10+ hour plane ride, 3+ hour car ride, and jet lag to top it off, but Bryn did AMAZING!
