Stonehenge

Being in England for John's work conference allowed us spouses and children to take a few trips throughout our week's stay in Lakenheath. While John was away for all day meetings, the kids and I piled onto the bus and made our first stop to Stonehenge. It was quite the adventure with just myself and my four kids but I knew we may not have the opportunity to see it again so I kept my focus on that to get through the day. Trust me, it was A LOT of work! Thankfully, my new and dear friend Emma helped me out with my kids when needed and offered to push the stroller for me when I wanted to take photos or to tend to my kid's needs. She's awesome and I'm so grateful for people who stand up and help without being asked!

Aubrey sat next to her friend and they played ds games much of the bus ride.

Landon played and dosed off and on and was quite the trooper!

Andrew and Jocelyn sat next to me across the isle and weren't always this cute and loving so I did what any Mom would think to do...take a picture to preserve the good moments when they happen. Hahaha These two are wonderful and love each other but being siblings, they aren't always so nice! :)

A few hours later, we arrived at Stonehenge! It was sprinkling the whole bus ride and cleared up just in time for us to take our tour. Still cold and windy but definitely doable!

The rocks were HUGE! And due to them preserving their history, you aren't allowed to go past the gated off area and touch them. Still very neat to see though.

We were given devices for our self walking tour but the kids used them more like walkie talkies. So funny! :) Walking around with the kids and taking photos didn't allow me to hear much but it was a great place to sight see. I decided to buy their tour book and read up on it later. :)

It was so pretty there and I wished the whole time that John was there to join us! With my brother and his family living in England, I'm sure we'll be able to go again while we live in Germany for a few years. And if not, we have pictures! :)
