well. officially home from london and settled (except sleep – why does sleep hate me?!) anyway it was an AMAZING trip all around. i knew i loved london from my previous visit (8 YEARS AGO!!) but there is something about london at christmas time. so, how to sum up our 12 day vacation? here are some GEMS of london (photo diary edition – be sure to click the arrows to see more pics!): this definitely wasn’t a GEM but… Read more »
