My Mom and Me

We have not posted on our blog, or on facebook, in FOREVER! I am not sure if we even have any readers still. We have had a fabulous summer traveling all over England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales. I am feeling ambitious to start posting again so that we can feel closer to all of our family and friends who we miss so much. Tonight I started thumbing through our millions of photos from the summer, having no idea where to begin. Then, I was inspired by this photo:

It really tickled me to see how similar I look to my Mom. (This picture was taken in the famous Betty's Bakery in Harrogate.) My parents came to visit us this past July, and we had a fabulous time. So, here are a few pics of me and my mom from the summer.
This is my Mom and I climbing Fairy Glen, in the town of Uig, on the Isle of Skye, in Scotland. Now, I wouldn't normally post such an unflattering picture of myself, but in the spirit of the theme of the post ... we even walk the same!

My Mom is petrified of heights. This is something she shares in common with Luke. It was quite an accomplishment for her to make it to the top. She scooted the whole way down.
Josh is to be thanked for capturing these lovely images. Ha, Ha, Ha.
This is my Mom and I in Robin Hood's Bay, England.
This is my Mom and I with our handsome hubbys. We wouldn't be the same without them. This picture was taken at the Eilean Donan castle, Scotland.

My Mom and I had a great time shopping for Polish pottery, Uig pottery, green glass, Wedgwood exclusives, Whitby Jet jewlery, Nottingham lace, and loads of other cute stuff. We like the same things.

My Mom goes by Granny, and I think I will go by Granny too. I loved my Granny, and my kids love their Granny.
