Okay, I'm a bit late on this update. But better late than never, yes? :)
Last Saturday, Tammy & I went to Stonehenge! AHH!! It was incredibly beautiful! Such a beautiful sunny, warm day. We have truly been blessed with beautiful Saturdays for our day trips. I am sincerely thankful for that. In fact, we have had more sunny days here in general than I expected. I was anticipating grey days, rainy days, & no sunny days. In this case, I LOVE that I was wrong! Haha!! :)
Anyway, Stonehenge was gorgeous! Just standing there I felt so insignificant [a feeling that continued later that day...].
After Stonehenge, we moved on to the area of Salisbury. A very cool, nifty area. The best part was Salisbury Cathedral, a BEAUTIFUL Gothic cathedral. I felt so insignificant walking through this amazing place. I would go to church every single day if I could go to this cathedral. Not kidding. I felt like my faith was totally in check here. No questions. Just believing. If only that could happen at home.
I lit two candles for my grandmother [an act which moved me, as well as my parents - they were grateful of my remembrance for two such wonderful women].
Tammy & I finally got out to explore our park -yes, OUR park - this week. We stumbled across LOTS of football fields - on which I wanted to play so badly! Ah, memories.
We also found the London Zoo - & a giraffe! Haha! :) So, today, to kick off our weekend, we are going to the London Zoo! I have not been to a zoo in 10+ years! I am seriously excited! :) I plan on acting like a ten year old. Be jealous. :)
But! The best part of this weekend is my Mom is coming to visit on Saturday! That's right! 5 days with my Mom!!!!!! I miss her so so so so so much & I can't wait to just hug her. See her [besides through a webcam on Skype]. Talk to her - our classic Mom-Daughter chats that have been hanging by a thread via e-mail the past 6 weeks. I need some REAL Mom-conversation! Plus, I get to go shopping with my Mom in London. The only thing to top that is that I get to legally drink with my Mom this week! YES! :) Doesn't get any better than that! Actually...it does...Mamma Mia! with my Mom, Tammy & Cathy on Wednesday night! Sweet! :)
Alright, enough of my Mommy ranting. Haha. Time to get ready for the Zoo! :)
