We flew up to Angers. Here are a few photos:
The fun cars in the airport you can ride for a euro! What! A euro! That IS highway robbery!
Talking a walk to go to the butcher means a shoulder ride.
Picking dandeliions.
The church where we got married, BE. (before Estelle)
Back in the day when we only had to focus on me, I mean, each other. Sigh.
Papie taking his afternoon nap upright on his stool.
Thomas and Estelle examining the impatients in the back yard
A visit from good family friend Sebastien and his wife Gauchia with their new baby Adrien. This little boy is only 1 1/2 kilos away from Estelle and he is 13 months, I repeat 13 months, YOUNGER. He is, needless to say, a bruiser. He means business. Estelle was totally smitten. He is another bilingual-would-be baby - French and Polish.
Why pay a euro for a cheap ride at the airport, when you can ride in your old infant seat on top of the dining room table! It is better than the merry-go-round! And the people working the joint are MUCH more attentive.
A little down time in Butterfly Alley, the reading nook in Estelle's room.
One day we went to visit a very nearby chateau that somehow I have never been to yet. Chateau de Plessy-Bourre. Old. Like 14th century or something. Hubby and I had a guided tour while her highness went wild on the grounds with her grandparents.
Back in Nice and up to her old tricks = wearing bakery cartons as hats and being a pain to go down at night. Dang.

Whoa!Love the new blog look.
Oh My gosh, Estelle has changed even since she was here. She's growing like crazy. She's so sweet!
I want to live at Chateau de Plessy-Bourre.
We too thought that Estelle was even taller. Sam, Sr. says, "She looks like she's about three."
Looks like you had a lovely time in Angters.
what great pictures; fun to see the castle, the church and the castle room in Prunnieres! Miss you all!
Nice, but what happened to Oana?
Une precision Julie qui peut interesser ta famille.
Pour aller chez le boucher au centre commercial nous avons eemprunté le chemin de la Liberation.
Durant la seconde guerre mondiale, Bouchemaine connut seize bombardements. Le 8 juillet 44, le pont de chemin de fer fut partiellement détruit. Début août, le pont suspendu miné par les Allemands sauta. Le pont du Petit Anjou (ou chemin de la Libération) restait la seule voie d'accès vers Angers pour les Américains sous les ordres du général Patton. Il fut pris le 8 août 44 permettant la libération d'Angers.
what, she has her own room? When my children were little, we knew that we could go for a visit to my father-in-law's house but definitely could NOT stay overnight!!
love you!
