My Family Begins

This past month has been a whirlwind of events and completely blog worthy, so I'm going to catch every one up whether you want to hear it or not.

First there was London

How I loved hearing that British accent for 4 days! London had so many great sites but there was no possible way to fit it into four days but we made it to the major attractions; took walks in Hyde Park and watched the New Year's fireworks display from Buckingham Palace et al.

Then there was Paris

I was really worried about not knowing any French, but we really lucked out; almost everyone we came into contact with spoke English and everyone in France was so gracious and kind. Paris was such a wonderful city with so much beautiful architecture and class, I really want to go back...but in the spring, winter is too cold.

Then there was Rome

Rome's history is so amazing. I learned more about that city than any of the others. One of the days there, we rented a car and went to a Spurlonga a small beach town a couple of hours from Rome. The city reminded me of Under the Tuscan Sun. We sat in a little cafe laughing and talking while eating some delicious gelato; best gelato I have ever had.

Last I'm having a...

...and I'm 11 weeks!
