Actually this might not be so much a highlight...we did the sightseeing bus in London...it took way longer than we were told, headphones didn't work, babies cried...it was an experience.
Grandpa and Owen at Buckingham Palace.
Us at Trafalgar Square
This nasty pic of me is for my sister, the cupcake lover...red velvet deliciousness.
Rob and I got to go to Les Mis at Piccadilly Circus and we ate lots of McDonald's. At one lunch we were actually seated in what turned out to be a fancier restaurant than we had thought and we walked out and headed to Micky D's. Cheap, obnoxious Americans. We went to the Saturday Portabello Road market which the guys hated (it was impossibly packed with people) but I kind of liked. My dad and I made a last minute stop to Harrod's. Does everyone know that that store has a FLOOR devoted to Christmas? YEAR ROUND? It was sheer glittery, tinsely, candy caney, goodness. I could have spent hours...good thing we only had 1/2 hour. This picture hardly does it justice but...
We headed to the Dublin City Center a few times:
The boys are a bit camera shy...
And thanks to Rob's work we got to go to a World Cup Qualifier Game...Ireland vs. Italy. It was so fun. The Irish are crazy about their national sports teams so the crowd really made the game. They tied but it was a really exciting match. Here we are at Croke park (the same place we saw U2):
And a few more random shots:
Grandma Nancy and Owie.
And the 4 of us pre-church.
Thanks grandparents for making the long trip out...we had a blast.

Looks like fun! Isn't Harrod's amazing? Too bad I can't afford more than a candy cane there. I'm with ya' on the Mickey D's. Who wants to pay $20+/plate for English food?
Oh yeah, and we're looking forward to seeing you guys in a few weeks!
So cute! It looks like you guys are having a blast. We so want to come see you, maybe we'll know by december where our lives are headed and we can plan a trip.
P.S. I really like your sweater at the soccer match
I bet that soccer game was fun! You guys all look great.:)
