Up up and away!

We are getting so close...I am getting to our amazing trip to France.  We are so lucky to have fabulous family living in Paris right now and made a plan to spend 10 days in France (most of it in Paris and then a few days in Normandy).  We visited our lovely brother/sister in law Pierre and Sara and our amazing nieces Lillian and Sylvia!  Thank you so much to the Parisian LeBlancs for being such wonderful hosts and always lovely people in our lives.

The kids were amazing travellers for the flight over - not much sleeping happened but we were all too excited.


Here we are about to check in our bags at the airport.

The girls watching the sun out the window

Truly the kids did so much better than we imagined they would on the flight.  Flying overseas is always a little confusing as you feel like you are chasing the sun and they seem to serve food every 2 hours...you finish dinner and 3 hours later you're being served coffee and breakfast. HA.  We were all so excited to get off the plane and start our European adventure!


Here are two very tired children in the Paris airport as poor daddy is on a coffee and pastry quest somewhere.


The beautiful view from Sara and Pierre's apartment....just steps from the Eiffel Tower.


We arrived mid morning and were very lucky that Sara was around to greet us - the girls were still at school (Friday) so Sara kindly took us for a quick stroll around their neighbourhood - which is beautiful!



Their first glimpse of "La Tour" from the Palais to Chaillot.

We were lucky enough to arrive just a few days after Sylvia's birthday - it was so nice to be able to deliver all her gifts in person for once!! xo

Happy Birthday Girl


Beautiful LeBlanc Girls :)
