Fun in the Sun!
It has been sunny wonderful here! We have been pretty busy doing fun things with the kids! We have spent the last couple days outside. Today we celebrated Ethan’s birthday early (since we won’t be with him on the day of). It was a surprise for him and it was a lot of fun! Here are some pics and a video (because Justin requested a video specifically of Maisie)! This is right after Ethan and Avery realized we were having a party. When we started singing happy birthday, Avery was so happy and dancing thinking it was her birthday. As you can see, she had just found out that it was a celebration for Ethan. Really, she is a sweet little thing. High drama, just like her mom and aunt!!! Kylie and Ethan! Grandma with her two granddaughters. Maisie enjoying a little In-n-out for lunch. Amy and Ethan…

If you would like to see a day in the life of my family, take a look at this video. It starts out with my niece Avery and one of her little drama tantrums and ends like The Sound of Music (well, sort of). We took this video last night at a baseball game. Good times.

It is Maisie’s birthday today and I can’t believe how “woman” I can be sometimes. I got emotional at her party yesterday when we sang her Happy Birthday. Then sitting in Starbucks today, listening to sad music, I started to get teary again. I just can’t believe how amazing this last year has been. It has flown by! I am so thankful for my little Maisie! So her party…. We had a great time! It was “Rock Star” themed as you can see in the above invitation! It really should have been punk rock, but whatever. Sort of the same, right? We had a few friends over. The kids made fruit loop necklaces (all my mom’s idea there) and we just sort of hung out. It was so fun to be with friends! Maisie had a blast! The only stinky thing was that she was sick. She was pretty chill…

That’s right. I am not saying goodbye yet because we are coming back in January and besides, this is a place I know we will visit again and again (at least if we are living in Europe somewhere)! We had a really great last day here spending time with friends! We did stop by the Eiffel tower for a bit, as well as hand over the keys to our apartment. Here are some pictures from our last day living in Paris. Don’t miss the video at the end! I like to take pictures of myself! This is on a street close to where we live(d). Just a little picture of Maisie saying her goodbyes to her first home. Finally a family picture in front of the Eiffel tower! A fun shot! Another family picture… minus Justin, plus Jeff. For some reason Jeff and I like to take family pictures together. …
