England!!!

Alright, as many of you know, my mother and I are planning on going to England this Summer to visit my Aunt Kris and Uncle Miles. YYYAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!! So, to show how pathetically excited I am, and to make you all crazy jealous, I decided to make this post.
One of the first things we are going to do is go to an antique fair! An antique fair alone would excite me greatly, but in England? Need I say more?

And....Aunt Kristy (I love you!) put together a list of things we could possibly do while we're staying with her!

1. Antique Fair

2. Bath (you won't want to miss this place!)

3. The Cotswolds (This is where those super cute old stone cottages are)

4. Salisbury (a lovely little town with a huge beautiful cathedral) and Stonehenge (which is very near Salisbury).

5. London. We might want to spend two days in London

6. Blenheim Palace (so pretty, but a bit costly) http://www.blenheimpalace.com/

7. Windsor Castle (very cool, but again, a bit costly)

8. Oxford (Of course you will want to spend at least a day in my stomping grounds!)

9. Stratford-Upon-Avon (this is where Shakespeare lived. Miles and I have been wanting to go here, so it would be fun for all of us to go for a day)

10. It might be fun to go to the southern cost to Brighton (where Lydia from Pride and Prejudice got into so much trouble with Mr. Wickham!).

Doesn't it all sound deliciously wonderful?! Can you tell I'm so excited I can hardly stand it? Aunt Kris, I would still love you even if we were not going to visit your home in England. But I'm so glad we are visiting you in England!

It all sounds so awesome!! Post lots of pictures while you're there/when you get back!!!!! When is it exactly that you're leaving?

Tiff I got an extra big suit case, will you smuggle me in?

Sondra said...

No offense Stacy, but I think that'll get us in a bit of trouble at the airport. (ha ha ha) That would probably turn into a homeland security type issue.

Stacy said...

I have my passport.

Sondra said...

I don't know why, but I'm excited to go to church in another country.

Christi said...

Just curious, will you be able to find an LDS church there?

Sondra said...

Christi,

This is Tiff's mom. We will go to church with my sister. She has been going to an LDS ward there ever since she moved there last December.

In London there is an LDS Temple.

I remember going to dif churches when we went to Germany. It is very special to see how your faith practices in other countries.

Laurel said...

Wow! That sounds extremely fun! I wish I could go out of the states! I would really want to visit Australia. If you have time I think you should go to the temple. I think it would be an awesome experience. :)

Stop! Stop! You're killing me! Oh, I want to go to Englad sooo bad! And antique shopping! And sightseeing all those wonderful places! And seeing Kristy & Miles and their cute little place! Oh, my turn can't come fast enough--whenever that is! Hope you two have a very wonderful time. Keep a journal besides the pictures so you can remember all that you've seen and felt. Love you, you lucky girls. You'll be taking a piece of my heart with you! Love- Mom, Grandma Terry
