Waking up in Paris in the afternoon.

I let the boys sleep in this morning followed by some spilling of mints and lazing about with a journal. Then we walked over to the Jardin des Tuileries and had a little brunch. More than a little of which was fed to the pigeons. (Musee du Louvre in the background)

Jet lag in the city of lights.

Thursday in Paris

Macarons at McDonalds! Ike in the taxi and the Arc de Triomphe. The boys settling in at the hotel.

O'hare to Paris!

We had to wake Calvin up for once! Bienvenue!

Seattle to O'hare

We dropped Penny off at grandma Ann and grandpa Tony's and got on a plane!

A day with Calvin

He helped me shop for our trip, picked out a book at Barnes and noble, got creative with the smelly markers, and played at the park. He was partial to the watermelon scented marker and wanted to keep smelling it. Thus the pink nose.

Ike's red robin

And Dan and Penny snuggling.
