Today we spent the day at home. The weather wasn't quite as nice so it was a day of crafts and books. Here Haley took some of her books (notice I say SOME) and made a "puzzle" out of them on our living room floor. When she was done, I took this picture.
Today's landmark is of Eldon House. It is London's oldest surviving private residence. It is furninshed with most of the original pieces that were donated to London. Unfortunately they wont let you take pictures inside though. I absolutely LOVE this place and I love going on the tours of the house, especially at Christmas time when they decorate the house like it is 1834 again.
Again, this landmark has a personal meaning to me. Mike and I had pictures taken in the garden here for our wedding. What a perfect setting for a victorian wedding. We got a picture taken on the porch and it is one of my favourites.
