Getting lazy...

So, I've started slacking on the picture taking. So much about life here just seems normal now, so busting out the camera doesn't cross my mind as much anymore. But here are some random pictures from the last few weeks, in no particular order.

Thanksgiving! Weird eating Thanksgiving dinner in work clothes, but had a fabulous meal with a bunch of Americans AND Brits... bummed I didn't get a pic of the whole group but here's me and Kat (thanks for slaving all day on the food Kat - it was delish)!


Day trip to Amsterdam for business... got stuck in this airport because of snow in London. Misery.

Scones & tea at the National Gallery... just love an afternoon break here in the city!!

This is from our Christmas shopping weekend extravaganza. We knocked out all of our Christmas shopping in 2 days. This is me fueling up for the afternoon on day 1 at the mall.

Day 1 loot.

Day 2, in the city...

Our fuel up break on Day 2 in Fortnum & Mason's ice cream parlor (of course... can't have a blog post without an ice cream pic). F&M is our new favorite place on earth!!! It's like Harrods but more intimate and not as crazy. Perfect place to find any gift you could possibly ever need.

Took this on Tuesday night walking across the bridge to the Royal Festival Hall (the building with blue lights on the very right) for a London Philharmonic concert, compliments of Sally Cohen. Such a fun mid-week event!

Not excited about spending Saturday morning on the phone dealing with banking & utilities issues.

So, not sure if I've mentioned that we are watching the whole Alias series. But we are (Thanks Dad!!!). And now we've gotten into puzzles, so we spend our weeknights working on puzzles with the fireplace blazing drinking hot tea and Alias on the background. Oh, it's heavenly. And for those of you thinking "what a lame way to spend an evening" - you clearly haven't tried it yet.

This one was a gift from Perfect Mom.... and only took us two days.

Oh, I loved this one.

More Christmas events/parties coming up this week... pictures to follow soon!!
