October: A Month in Review
What a month we had at Casa di Lily & Kenz! It has been an awesome month with lots of friends in town from California, great company of London-based friends, delicious dinners, fun happy hour drinks, and to top it off — the weather has been amazing! I love autumn in London especially the vibrant colours! So, here is a month in review in numbers:
Four: Friends who stayed with us this month
This includes one Ph.D. student, one college roommate and her new husband, and one lady on her post-bar trip. It’s been great fun having you all here in London.
Our “adopted” UC student:
Stroll through Camden and dinner at Tayyab:
One: Missed babyshower in San Francisco
The first of our close friends are expecting in January 2010 , although I think Baby K will be arriving in December. So exciting for the parents-to-be! We can’t wait to him!
One: Wedding Anniversary
We celebrated one year of marriage in Paris!
Two: Missed weddings in October; one in NC and one in CA
Congratulations to the happy couples! We were able to congratulate one happy couple in person in London two days after their wedding!

My older sister on the 5th, my mother on the 12th, and Kenz’s nephew on the 23rd. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
One: Trip to the Kentish countryside
This was a long overdue trip out to the beautiful English countryside to meet little Edward, our friends’ 10 month-old son who is of course adorable.

One: Oktoberfest (in London)
We didn’t make it Munich for Oktoberfest this year (maybe next year?), so we attended an Oktoberfest bash at the Bavarian Beerhouse in London. Good fun!

Zombie Party:
And not to mention…countless laughter, Kodak moments, and probably far too many calories and pints for our own good!
Great friends is priceless.
