I never thought turning 30 could be this good...
Caleb surprised me 4 days before we left and told me we were going to London (a.k.a. my favorite place in the world) for my birthday.
Our mantra: It's not about food or sleep...it's about doing. And we did a lot!

Here's our stop. Double decker buses are my favorite mode of transportation!

Love me the double decker bus.

Riding on the bus.
Next surprise: Diana, Scott, & my little niece, Iris. Thank you for coming! What a sacrifice. Hope it was as fun for you as it was for me.
Caleb & Scott. The reunion.

The sweetest surprise.

Diana & Scott.

Sweet Iris.

My family. Climbed 523 feet to the top of St. Paul's Cathedral to see London. Breathtaking and unsafe:)
Not pictured: the London Eye. Giant Ferris Wheel type Deal. Takes 35 minutes to go around.
Also not pictured: COLDPLAY concert at Wembley stadium featuring Jay-Z. Wow. Floor seats, saw Gwenyth Paltrow, Moses, Chris Martin bouncing Apple on his shoulders during Jay-Z's performace. Coldplay drummer, Will & his son. 80,000+ people at the show. Fireworks, millions of paper butterflies, a short rain right before they came on...amazing.

My hotel. The Jolly Saint. This place used to be monastery.
Last but not least, thanks to Caleb. I never want to travel the world with anyone else. Who could know that amount of planning that went into this insane weekend getaway. You know me so well and completely blew me out of the water with your generosity, thoughtfulness, and love for me.
