Team Tuohy

For Christmas this year we dropped our sweet little Lincoln off at the Marsh's and headed across the pond to England for some holiday cheer Tuohy style! We had such a wonderful trip spending quality time with Mike's family and enjoying the country we spent our first year as a married couple in! Nana greeted us with a cowgirl's hat, Sammi and I indulged in our favorite chips (chrips) over girl time and spark slobbered Michael with his love all while we were spoiled rotten by the wonderful parents God blessed us with! It is always fun how it seems like no time has passed since we were all together, and yet so much has! It was such a treat to get to be involved in all of their family traditions and be a part of the Tuohy family that much more! From santa bags to Pondom hugs and Christmas mass, I now can understand when Michael talks about his past holiday's and smile because I got to be a part of one... Although, I am sure they did not include sammi hurting Lady with a Range Rover!!!

After the actual holiday had passed we got to spend time trotting around the country and seeing the sites! We headed off to Knutsford for a traditional pub meal, yum! Followed by taking a trip into the Plough to pester Miss Samantha at work- then wondered around Wilmslow for a cheesy pasty and a trip into the local shops! Finally ending it all off with a fantastic meal with Mike's family and cousin Stephen to wrap up a wonderful (but fast!) trip!

It really was such a blessing we got to be there and spend time with the family and stuff our faces with our favorite English foods! It reminded us of such a special time in our lives and allowed us to share in something together with the Tuohy's we had not been able to yet as a couple. The trip was short but the memories shall last a long time! Thank you also to the Marsh's who made it all possible and dealt in a joyful manner with all my "worried parent" lists, game plans and late night calls! I know him and Gracie had a ball- you are troopers!

Below are some of the best moments from our trip!
