Thanksgiving

Over Thanksgiving week my parents came out to England.  It was the first time to England for Dad but my mom had been over a couple times my first year here.  We all wished there had been a little more time but we did get to do a lot of local stuff which I was happy about!  Jay had to fly on Monday so we were able to take Mom & Dad out to the jet and watch him get started and then went up to the tower to watch him take off.  They really enjoyed it and it was great getting to show Mom & Dad what Jay does and a little bit of the military world!  Jay showing Mom "his office".

And Dad...he had a great time!
Jay got to fly his jet too which was extra special!
Jay in "Work mode".
That night we had some friends over to have dinner and so Mom & Dad could meet most of the people we hang out with over here.  Amy brought over some leftover Fondue from her Fondue Party for desert!  It was a big hit!!On Tuesday I took Mom & Dad into London and showed them around.  This is mom and I in Victoria Park.
Mom & I with the London Eye in the background!  We tried to get her to go on it but she had no desire...she is not too fond of heights!
On Friday we took Mom and Dad to the Ickworth house which is where Jay and I had our first date and were he proposed!  It is a very special place for us!
Friday night we went to dinner at the Plough Inn, one of our favorite Pubs in Icklingham, a town near ours.  They have great food and it is a great British Pub experience!!
It was a great trip!  Thanks Mom and Dad for making the trip out here!!
