this weekend we rented a car and headed west.....

first stop: STONEHENGE

i'm glad we went, it was pretty cool to see.... a little weird because it's in the middle of NOWHERE, nothing around but grass and a few sheep, but the view was amazing!

jonathan has a cousin that lives near Bath and we were lucky enough to stay with them for a few days. we had a great time with them, they were so great to let us invade their house and show us around.... not to mention the amazing food they cooked for us!!

our next stop of the weekend: BATH

Pulteney Bridge

Bath Abbey

Roman Baths

us at the Roman Baths

Roman Baths

for all you Jane Austen fans.....

The Circus

Adam was able to squeeze in a little nap during all of our sight seeing

The Royal Crescent

after sightseeing in Bath, Denise and Joe took us to a little park near their house for the boys to get out some energy..... the nice thing about parks in the winter is that we get them all to ourselves!

they had these great little pedal tractors that the boys loved

the next day Denise and Joe took us to the CUTEST little village i have ever seen.... apparently they have filmed a few movies here (The Wolfman to name one)!

our last stop: Castle Combe

St. Andrews church- it has a working medieval clock inside

Manor House Hotel- super fancy

at least we're all looking at the camera.... that's the best i can do!

giant chess board next to the hotel

Castle Combe- so picturesque

we had such an amazing weekend, Denise and Joe live in such a beautiful area and we had so much fun spending time with them and seeing the countryside!

ps. jonathan did much better with the car this time! :)
