We arrived to Greece on Wednesday which was the best decision since our wedding was Sunday and this gave us 6 days to enjoy.  Due to some good planning and organization, by the time we left we had hardly anything left to do for the wedding and were able to relax for two days beforeContinue reading “May 28th, 2010”

One week before our wedding in Greece our wedding photographer (who was from Poland) happened to be in London.   This would have been extremely lucky, as we wanted to take some pictures before the wedding in London before the wedding, but Bart, the photographer, was coming in for another wedding and had no time.  A week beforeContinue reading “May 23, 2010”

When we lived in London we used to have Sunday fundays.  We would head over to our local pub and spend the day there, reading the paper, having friends drop by and eventually having some dinner. We’ve decided to reinstate Sunday fundays.  However with an 18 month old these now start at 9 am andContinue reading “Sunday Funday”
