Behind the Photos IV
It’s feels bizarre to be looking at all of these wintry photos while it’s still hot as Hades outside. I’m at that point where I’m growing tired of summer (mainly my summer wardrobe) but at the same time know I will be sad to see it go. So for now, I’m going to soak up…

weekend update
++ Big news people… Fifty has made the jump to twitter! After months and months of him begging me, I’ve finally let him have a twitter account (he is still updating his Facebook and vows that he won’t ditch his Facebook friends for his new ones on Twitter). Since his cousin, Napoleon, started tweeting, it…

fun in the sun
My happiest sunny, summer days are made up of pool side fun, family, friends and barbecues. What are yours made up of? As for that water-rugby match or whatever it was that was going on in the pool, (and that Mrs. London and I steered well clear of), I’m pretty sure Fifty won. Bon weekend…

behind the photos II
This is the second installment in my series, behind the photos. These photos were all taken within the first three months of my new life as a Le Petit Villager. As with the first installment, some of these photos may be new to you, some may not. These two photos always make me smile. They were snapped…

the birthday boy's weekend
When I asked The Husband what he wanted to do for his birthday this year, he said, “relax“, that’s all he wanted. No BBQ or big party like years gone past, just a quiet weekend chilling out, preferably with a pool if I could swing it. Luckily I knew just the place… we could hang…

ciao ciao
{La Petite teaching her Tonton} ++ I’ve not gone Italian on you, it just so happens that we say ciao in the south of France too. Papa says it, Honey’s Honey says it, The Husband says it… we all say it. I guess it’s because lots of people here are of Italian heritage (The Husband’s…

a last minute dash to the côte d'azur
{Toulon & the Mediterranean} I’m blogging about my last minute dash to the Côte d’Azur from the Côte d’Azur, but I’m not talking about this one, I’m talking about a trip a couple of weeks ago. And then maybe I’ll tell you about this one, a couple of weeks from now (I seem to be running about two-three weeks behind…

alors
++ It looks like those pesky April showers have given way to May flowers. After a month of mostly rainy days the weekend is forecast for sunny skies and 21°C/ 70°F (after we get past the 60% chance of rain today). It’s perfectly delightful weather for barbecues and rugby which is fantastic because that’s what we’re…

weekend
Did you know that the French word for weekend is week-end? Yep… week-end. I guess throwing that dash in there makes it a bit more French like. Who knows. Either way, I had a très bon week-end. It started off the way all weekends should start… deliciously. (Whenever I think about the word weekend, I think…

The Bachelor: Special Edition Starring Fifty
Look at these two gorgeous girls! That there in the front is Nina (she was born in the good ol’ U.S.A. so I’ve got a bit of a sweet spot for her) and behind her, is her little sister Lily. A few weekends ago, they came to Le Petit Village for a date with Fifty (it…
