Greenwich part 2

Greenwich

Phantom of the Opera

Dinosaur zoo

I was laying in bed with alex night reading him a silly book. There was a super silly line that made alex laugh, and then fart, which lead to much more laughing. He and I were laughing so much that Andy had to come and see what was up. Good memory.

Packing and Queen

I spent Tuesday morning packing up our souvenirs and it became clear we need a new suitcase!
Canary Wharf had a concert last night with a full orchestra and singers doing the music of Queen. We had a picnic dinner and enjoyed the evening. The music was a bit loud for alex though!!

Greenwich

We spent a little bit of time in Greenwich Monday night and the Painted Hall and Chapel were very impressive! I also love when they have kids activities!
Oh, and alex with his bedtime snack!

"Beach day"

The Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park has a summer beach each year set up with loads of sand, kiddy pool, and carnival rides. There was plenty of soft sand, which the kids enjoyed, and lots of people watching for me. It was cloudy most of the time so the kids didn't use the pool. Maybe another time!

Lazy morning, grant museum, fish and chips and Trafalgar Square

Star Wars secret cinema

Tonight the boys went to a very fun and cool secret cinema showing of Star Wars. I don't know all the details.....cuz it's a secret and all.....but they have fake identities and belong to different groups in the rebel alliance. All I know is that alex was so excited to wear his costume and spend the evening nerding out with his dad!!

Samantha's birthday!

Playing catch in front of Daddy's work 

When mommy says to grab a jacket and you don't, you end up eating lunch on the tube vent to keep warm.  LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER!

We love lunch time with Daddy!

Fancy balloon hat in Hamley's

We love taking the bus with pop rocks and tattoos

Headed to the Eye

London Eye for birthday fun

He asked if he looked like a "science genius".  So hilarious!

Nice views 

Birthday girl!  11 years old!

AFC

The kids and I had a great morning at the Arsenal Football Club Members Day. Obviously, we are not members, but it's good to know one!! Andy's coworker has season tickets and wasn't able to go today so he gave us the tickets. We were able to watch the team warm up and practice and play with a group of lucky kids. At the end the team kicked a bunch of balls into the crowd and while I got my finger tips on 2 balls, I wasn't able to hang on to them. Sooooo, we bought some in the store! It was a lovely day out!
