Leaving England...and back to South Florida

Erianna was so upset to leave.  That's Olivia with Erianna, before she went to school.   Then off to the airport we went!

Absolutely RIDICULOUS arrival into JFK airport.  Customs took nearly two hours and it was HOT!

Erianna was not very happy about it. 

When we finally got to eat... I asked Erianna if she was tired, and she said...Mom, of course I am.  Look at the dark circles under my eyes!!  Then about an hour later she puked.. yep..as we were about to board the plane.. not the best day ever! :(

We got home around 3 in the morning, and I had officially been awake for 26 hours... I then proceeded to hibernate for 17 hours!!!

Then Austin got some of his gifts, and used them straight away!

Then we went to get the kids uniforms sorted out...  Wow...Austin is going to kindergarten in a few months... wow.... no more babies.. :(

Then after seeing my little man in his uniform, we went to my favorite place in the world.. El Novillo, for some delicious food! 

England Day Thirteen, lunch with Auntie Julie, drinks for Auntie Gill's birthday

Great day... Enjoyed the last day here, but definitely wished we weren't leaving tomorrow :(

Here are some pictures from what we did today...

A trip to the village for some Lucosade for mom to help nurse her hangover... yikes...

Went to a neat place for lunch with my Auntie Julie, it was a random garden place..  had some neat things for sure, and everything was super expensive!

Then we went to a pub for to celebrate my Auntie Gill's birthday with my Uncles Lee and Nigel, and my Auntie Gill's friend and her daughter Lily and her boyfriend..  it was nice, but I was still feeling a little rough....to stay the least....

The day was finished off with the best meal in Britain.. Uncle Mike's chili!  YUMMMMMMY!!!  No more wine for me though!!

Posing like nerds..nice shorts Uncle Mike!!

Yummy bottle of Coke!

Then we went to my Godmother's house..and we had a great time catching up, and we possibly drank WAY too much!!  We had such a nice time enjoying the weather.. it was the first day that we did not have to wear a sweater since we have been here... 

Erianna kidnapped my camera and took about 300 blurry pictures....

 

England Day Eleven-Running around town and dinner at Auntie Julie's

The day started off with some "frogging."  Yep, catching frogs in the garden.  Then a little cricket with Jack and Matthew.  Then we went to NEXT to spoil my children with some new beautiful clothes. Love English clothes. My favorite places are Marks and Spencer and Next.  http://www.marksandspencer.com/

Love their clothes!  Can't wait for some photoshoots in their new clothes! :)  After Next we went to see my Aunt Tina's parents and Erianna was spoiled with chocolate and a fresh flower to put in her hair.  We got home and got dressed and off to Auntie Julie's house for a delicious dinner and bottle of champagne. Erianna had a great time there, and was able to pick some fresh strawberries for her dessert!  A great day and the reality is setting in that we are leaving really soon, and feel like we just got here! :(

Frogging!

Cricket Time!
