On july 22, Hope Jones and I had the most wonderful visit. Hope is from America... she is getting married in September. It was onderful hearing her Wedding Plans.
We talked for hours about everything from A-Z. There was so much to catch up on in America and It was nice being able to share some of the lovely spots of England my husband David and I have travelled to since I came here in 2004.
We ate teacakes, cookies and hot tea. We exchanged gifts. This was the Welcome to england gift accordian book I made for Hope.
