The Fallons Visit! November 15-28, 2014

Yay! Such an exciting thing to look forward to is having visitors! Bobbi is a sorority sister of mine from Baylor. She is a lot younger than me, so we really didn't hang out in college. Once I moved to Dallas in 2009, we started hanging out a lot! She is now one of my best friends! In Dallas we lived about 45 minutes from each other but met up at least weekly for dinners and/or gym time. I am the Godmother to her precious daughter, Maddi. Right when we found out we were moving to London Bobbi was moving to Oregon. It was a sad goodbye but also nice knowing we would both be leaving. Bobbi came back for a Dallas visit right before we left and helped us out so much getting our house ready for selling. She is now a door painting expert!

They arrived in London while we were in Brussels. This gave them some time to do the "touristy" things on their to-do list. I was so excited to get back to London to see them. They found a flat right across from the Bayswater underground. It was super easy access for me to go see them everyday.We went to Lion King at Lyceum Theatre. What an awesome experience! We sat in the front row so we were in a great spot as the animals came down the aisle and for when the giraffes get up close and personal! Maddi (4 year old) was very intrigued.

We also went on Paddington Bear hunts. The Paddington Bear movie is coming out soon, and to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Paddington they have placed 50 bears around London for people to find. They were designed by famous people. We had a blast tracking many down! I think we found around 30! It was hard work too!
During one of our hunts were ended up in Hyde Park. I have been wanting to see the Peter Pan statue. It was a big part in Downton Abbey this season...and here it is!

We had a fun day at the Natural History Museum.

Maddi loved going through Hamley's Toy Store. It was a mad house! Here is a Leggo model of the royals.

Bobbi made delicious nachos for my birthday! We got some yummy desserts too!

It was so sad to see them leave. I had such a wonderful time hanging out with them. Bobbi was such a wonderful help during the baby shower, kept me busy while Josh was in Dubai, and spent my birthday with me. I couldn't ask for a better friend. Love you guys!
