On Saturday we visited Jane Austen's house in Chawton which I was very excited to see. It was cool to walk through and imagine her looking at the same windows, serving tea, and trading secrets with her sister Cassandra.
No photos were allowed inside, but I did snap this one of Iain in the window. I figured they wouldn't mind since he was the subject of the photo.
After visiting her house, we drove to Winchester Cathedral where she is buried. At the time of her death, no one knew that she was the anonymous and highly popular author of Pride and Prejudice.
We've had crazy weather this weekend. On Saturday alone we had sun, rain, wind, hail and snow! It also snowed on Easter and today, but it didn't stick. Prior to this it has only snowed 4 times since we moved to Brighton.
On Easter Sunday we went to church and then enjoyed the church lunch in the back hall. Then we came back home to do an Easter egg hunt with Iain. It was less than a hit, as you will see in the video. It's pretty funny. I apologize for the quality of the video-- I was carrying the camera while trying to wrest eggs from Iain and directing him where to look.

I am nto sure what they say in the South of the UK, but here, that would elicit a precious,
"Bless his heart..."
That was sooo cute!! I couldn't help but giggle while watching the video :)!
You sound like you're picking up some of that English inflection, Jordan! ;)
