Today we visited Blenheim Palace, supposedly known for Winston Churchill, but strangly enough we was only born and married there, so I'm not really sure what the purpose of making shrines all over the building and grounds.  Anyway, the palace wasn't THAT exciting, the nice part was that it was decorated for Christmas which of course I loooovveee.  After quickly walking through the Palace Mike and I took a little kiddie train ride down to the childrens section of the Palace.  Finding that it was closed, we snuck in through the back door to play.  There was a labrynth, which of course, we had only encountered on 2 days earlier, so we were professionals.  Although, I don't like being left alone in it, so I almost cried when he ran away from me, and I could not find him :(   I didn't want to be stuck there forever!!!  After that we played chess on a huge lifesized chess set they had.  We got yelled at to leave before we could finish our game, but I was definitely going to kick his ass if we had finished :)

When we got back, Carissa and Paul had just gotten there to spend the night and visit me and Ashleigh!!  We spent the night at the Whitehorse catching up on all the gossip and looking at wedding pictures.  It was an awesome day, and soooo nice to see a sister!!
