Ireland

Andy had to go to Dublin on business, so we all tagged along with him and added on the weekend in the Irish countryside (for a very nice Valentines day!). We had tons of fun - so lucky to be able to go along! It was absolutely gorgeous, and Dublin was a great city!

Android

A few weeks ago Sophie and Edison visited the Google London office and got to meet Android.

Snow Day!!

London had the worst snow storm in 18 years this week (a whopping 8 inches in some places), which closed Edison's school along with much of the public transportation for 2 days (yay, Andy got to stay home too).

Lately I have been yearning for the sunshine - not the low on the horizon peaking through the haze kind, but real full sun. Maybe all I needed was some snow! I didn't realize how much I missed it. It has been so bright and fun to have London covered in snow - and everyone outside enjoying it!
