without further ado.. Europe pics!!!

As you can imagine we took about a billion pictures of our trip! So I've tried to select one or two from each of my favorite stops to show you. I'll try to upload a bunch to facebook if you're craving more:).

Buckingham Palace in London
Big Ben

Ephesus in Turkey- really cool tour!
Olympic Stadium in Athens

The Parthenon in Greece

Santorini Greece- one of my favorite stops! Absolutely Beautiful!
(Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants was filmed here)
Love the blue domed churches

The Vatican- my other favorite place- we got a really interesting tour and I was blown away by the Sistine Chapel and Saint Peter's Cathedral

Us being Gladiators as the
Coliseum
We visited many other places and saw so much- I wouldn't even know where to begin blogging about it. Overall the trip was exhausting- you try seeing everything there is to see in 14 days with a crazy toddler:)- but it was so incredible and I'm so thankful I've had the opportunity to experience all the awesome sites. It was one amazing trip of a life time:)!

Independence Day in Boston

The 4th of July in Boston is so fun! They do an amazing firework show over the Charles River. It was so pretty. We got together with a bunch of our friends and had a picinc and played games. Neal Diamond came to the firework show and sang some great hits including of course "Sweet Caroline" which is like a national anthem here. Over half a million people crowded the street and walk-ways along the Charles River and the is was perfect weather too.
