Mammy Came to town

Mammy was here for about 10 days! It was wonderful. Here are a few pictures of our full, hilarious, exploratory, wonderful time. Thanks Ma! First up, an amazing gift- the biggest blow up bed you'll ever see! Thanks, parental units.

Fun day in Windsor


We went on a journey to "Wales", aka England, specifically, an amazing little town called Church Stretton.

When we arrived, we went on an exploratory walk...









And had delicious Indian food for dinner.


Hike Caer Caradoc- rainy, muddy, half-made-up, and gorgeous.








This adorable man took the following picture of us...


Beautiful Ma and her muckers








Time to hike the barby-wire- and the Ma goes first! Look at that shoe grip! Amazing!...

...then comes the Jules






See those white dots? Those are all lambs!

Ma's helmet head. :) This is what happens when you hike for 6 hours in the rain.

Our little market





Beauteous day in Ludlow!

HA! And that's my Ma! Fearless spy! But I'm glad she did, because it made us discover this beautiful weaving shop.




























Pheasant Findings...

...from this cool butcher's shop...

... as a surprise for my hubby (notice the protective glove on the door-handle)...

...feared by a hysterical Ma...

...and here comes the unsuspecting hubby...

...AND HE TOUCHES THEM!!!!!!!

Yummy times at the Pineapple Pub

Poor old Pheasants! :( Hate to admit I'm happy to be rid of their smell, but the hysteria they created was definitely worth the 1 lb 50.

Thank you, Ma (and Papa, for letting us have her) for the wonderful time. The flowers in our windowsill make me happy and make me miss you.
