A visit from Aunt Amy and Uncle Andy!


My brother and sister came to visit us and meet their niece for the very first time!  They traveled for a little over a week in Italy and Greece and then stopped over in England for the last few days of their vacation.  It was so great to see them - hadn't seen them since Christmas and of course great to have them meet Anna.  We took them to a few of our favorite pubs and of course took Amy shopping - haha!  She was all about getting souvenirs!  Here are a few pictures!
We picked Andy and Amy up at the airport around 5 - got home and got them settled then headed to our favorite pub for dinner - the Bulls Head in Repton.
Yes, there were LOTS of leftovers!
Good morning! 
Anna hanging out with Uncle Andy

Went to lunch at the Queen's Head - great little pub in Long Eaton
Andy & Amy enjoying a pint
Dave and I and little Anna in her stroller to my left. 
Next stop was to the oldest pub in England - Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem - in Nottingham!
Sisters!  And Anna!
Walking around the Nottingham city centre
Andy in front of the Pit & Pendulum Pub - fun fact - the bathroom is hidden behind a trap door disguised as a bookcase!  Pretty funny to watch people try to find it for the first time!
Amy making a phone call!  She was quick to get out as it smelled like urine and cigarettes in there!
Jamie Oliver's restaurant where Dave and I celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary earlier in the month (didn't have a camera with us then, so we thought we'd recapture the moment!)
Robin Hood
Took Amy and Andy to our favorite French restaurant in Derby - Le Bistrot Pierre
Group shot!
Amy and Anna after bath time!
A little shopping at Barton Marina
Pride Park - I of course had to show them where the Rams play! 
Anna was really tired from all the shopping - fell asleep right on Amy's shoulder in the store!
I had been meaning to take a picture of the Royal Derby Hospital so I can show Anna one day where she was born - thanks to Amy for capturing this from the car (took a few tries and a couple trips around the round-a-bout, but we got it!)
We thought this was funny and had to get a photo! 
Having Andy and Amy visit was so great and I am so glad they were able to make the trip to see us and meet Anna!  Anna is one very loved little girl!  It meant a lot that they spent the time and money to come out and see us!  Love you both!
