Behind the Photos VIII
Two of the best things about being an expat are going home (it’s not that we dislike our new home or anything, it’s just that when we go ‘home’, we really, really appreciate it) and having friends come to visit. This edition of Behind the Photos features both. I visited my family in Dublin in May,…

woke up, fell out of bed, dragged a comb across my head
// Since we don’t have any plans for Halloween this year (Brother-in-Law is hosting a party again but is throwing it on November 1st and we already have plans for the 1st) other than watching the old cartoon version the Legend of Sleepy Hollow (it used to scare the bejeezus out of me when I…

[A little factoid for your Friday… mdr is the French equivalent of lol] It’s Friday y’all! Or, c’est vendredi y’all! (I have no idea how to say y’all in French, maybe tout le monde, yes, we’ll go with tout le monde.) C’est vendredi tout le monde! Yes, that’s better. (Can you tell I’m excited? I’m…

Behind the Photos VII
My first spring in Le Petit Village. I had already gotten to experience summer, fall, and winter here but spring was the last. When we left France to go to the States to get married, snow was on the ground, but when we returned, flowers were beginning to blossom and Le Petit Village began to…

Holiday Eyes {Apt Market}
Remember when I went to Aix-en-Provence with Mrs. London (no, not that time, or that one either, but this one) and I was trying to look at it with new eyes and soak it all in, you know, like really look at it. Well I’m trying to do that with a lot of places. Four…

expat escapades {round 8}
I haven’t decided how I feel about this new image yet. I might switch back to the old one, I might make a new one, or I might leave it. Who knows, I’m fickle like that. . . . . . . . . . . I’m not sure if it’s the changing of the…
