ENGLAND!

In September i got to go back to England and visit some of my family. I went with Millie (Since she was still free to fly and because she was too little for me to leave for that long) and my Mum and sister. On our way we flew into JFK, NY and what problems we had there. That airport is SO huge! We only had an hour and a half to get from one flight to the next and after having to travel from terminal 2 to terminal 7 (which ended up taking about half an hour) we were told the flight to Manchester, England was closed and we couldn't get on the flight. We kept getting the runaround between the 2 terminals between Delta and British airways.......each saying it was the other people's fault. Delta wanted us to each pay $2200.00 to get on their next flight (That was double what we paid for the whole trip!!!) and British airways just kept saying - it was not our fault, go back to Delta!!! It was so frustrating and after we told them what we thought of them....finally British Airways said they would fly us to London, then up to Manchester. It took a lot longer to get there and i have to say, Millie was such a trooper - She was so good on the flights.

We Spend just over a week there and we had so much fun visiting family, shopping and eating lots of yummy food!! Millie and i stayed at my brother Jared and his wife Jo's house (Thanks Holly for letting me sleep in your bed!) and my Mum and sister stayed at my brother Scott and his wife Reese's house. It had been over 4 years since i had seen my brothers and it was so much fun to see them again. Hopefully it won't be long till both of their families are living over here....can't wait for that to happen.

Millie at first was a little scared of both Jared & Scott, but as the days wore on she took a shinning to them both. She also loved Red (Jared & Jo's dog)and she loved lying on his dog bed with him (Thanks Jo for keeping it clean for her!). She loved playing with Holly & Libby and loved it when Libby would take her for a walk. She also loved Auntie Jo Jo, who would play with her every day, and who always let her play on her little chair.

On Sunday, we got to see Auntie Cherry (my dad's sister), who i hadn't seen in over 10 years! It was fun to see her family all grown up! We went to a pub and had a delicious meal!

The streets are so small!

One of the Hotel's in Congleton - i love the house's etc - they all have their own personality!

Becky, Mum, Marj

One night we went over to see Auntie Marj (Mum's sister) and her husband Mick. My Cousin Becky stopped by to say hi (Everyone says we look a lot alike)

I had a fun get together with some girls i went to school with when i lived in England. It was nice to see them all and catch up with all that is going on in their lives (Thanks to face book, which helped us all get back in contact with each other.)

Julie, Vanessa, Jenny, Kristen, Alice & Anna

The Alderly Edge Train Station. This is where i would catch the train everyday to go home from School!

We had such a great time. It was so nice just to see my family -(Thanks to all of you for the fun & for all that you dis for us!!). But i was ready to come home, to see Kent & Jaxon- Thanks to everyone that helped watch Jax while i was gone.

Jared & Jo sent Jax a proper English football shirt, he even had his name put on the back. Jaxon thinks it is AWESOME and always wants to wear it - he also keeps asking when he is starting Soccer - Not till the spring buddy!!

(**Hopefully i will post more pictures of this trip soon)
