The Nunez family made a trip to England last week for our friend Gemma's wedding. We had a great time despite an unexpected extension of five days because of the volcano eruption. Gemma's wedding was in Westminster Abbey, and every part of it was beautiful. Our friends , Rayna and Joe, who live in England, brought their son Leo and did us the huge favor of watching Lucia while we went to the wedding. Gemma's parents were also a great help. We were able to stay in their neighbors' house for free and the Stevens treated us like family. Lucia proved to be a great little traveler. She charmed everyone we met and was a trooper while we frantically tried to straighten out our flights, and dragged her to numerous museums as well as onto trains, cars and plains. We're so happy to be home, but also really thankful for such a great time in England.

Lucia was so excited to get on the airplane, but she got a little scared once we were above the clouds and wanted to put the window shade down. She did a great job the whole time though.
