A picture from Natalie when we were up in the London Eye

We loved seeing the skyline and Big Ben is very striking.  We are now in Dordogne. It's a four-hour train ride from Paris.  We are in such a beautiful area. It's green and gorgeous.  It's supposed to be very hot this week during the day, but cooling off at night. I'm excited to go exploring. We may go to Lascaux (today or tomorrow).

Paris

 
Super fun traveling with Brett, Géraldine, and Olivia. We got to see G's parents, too.  Lovely! Her mother, Dominique, took the photos.  More pictures soon!

London photos




Guest photographer, Kira! Photos from the London Eye from our first day, yesterday. We arrived and just tried to get sea legs.  We rode the Tube a lot. We were tired.

Today, we are jet lagged!  Up at 4 am! 3-6 hours of sleep for us (Judi got the least and she's usually the best sleeper). Wheeeee! All of us.  Out for more adventures (and more tea).

Working


 
She's a horse girl. This summer, she's volunteering again, but she has new responsibilities.  She exercises the horses on her own and took care of the horses by herself for 4 days last week while her instructor was gone.

No selfie stick

Waiting in line for a Movie on Father's Day.  We had to amuse ourselves somehow.
Tia held the camera and Judi hit the button on the Apple Watch.  Not bad.

Apricots

Who needs a ladder?  (None of the girls!)

About 25 pounds on Sunday (6/7)...Another 25 pounds on Wednesday (6/10) and probably another 50 pounds on the tree.  We have a lot of apricots!

Last day of School

Nick picked up the two elementary school girls--just one next year--and took them to lunch to celebrate.  Look at my 5th grader and 6th grader! The middle schooler had a party with her friends. 

Happy Summer!

Ballet sneak peek



 
At the dress rehearsal.  (I didn't get the others photographed 'cause I was still doing stuff and dancing myself.  This was one of the last dances at dress rehearsal.)

Big Lizard

In our backyard.  He's probably almost a foot long.  Skinny, but long.

Sunday adventures for Flat Stanley

Flat Stanley goes to the horse stables and meets Wings. She's 20 years old.

This is Natalie. She's 13 and helps take care of Wings.  She also helps take care of 2 other horses. 

He takes a little ride on her.

Flat Stanley went to the grocery store with us.

He thought the frozen pizzas were fun (especially since they were flat).

He chilled out with the ice cream.  It was a HOT day.  
It was about 90 degrees Farenheit or 32.2 Celsius.

Probably my favorite post show picture
