Merci Pariiiieee

Should I even say it? Totally failing at keeping this blog updated. But, since my last post was a little gloomy, I should say that in a few days Jake was back on his feet and even back playing flag football. This is seriously such a miracle because other times this has happened he has been out for months. So thank you, thank you for your prayers and kind words!

We have been super busy with our last year of school. But rest assured we've been having a lot of fun too.. {you were worried, ya?} the problem is I have been awful at bringing my camera. But, I do have an old adventure that I forgot to share....


PARIS.

I do think I mentioned it here, but in case you missed it I had a 12 hour layover in Paris on my way to Mozambique. My in-laws hooked me up with a personal tour guide who showed me around the city. My tour guide saved me from gypsy children trying to rob me and I was so happy she was with me.

We rented bikes and rode around to as many places as we could fit in. It was magical. I had the most amazing day trying to remember how to ride a bike in Paris while maneuvering through the traffic and falling in love with the city. The only thing that could have made it better is if my lovely husband could have been with me, but life is long and we still have time.

Turned out to be a photo tour and since I was meeting Jake in Mozambique I have a whole CD of pictures of myself in Paris lol.. If you don't make it through all these pictures, I wont judge.
ps. please excuse my 'layover look'.. I flew all night to get there ok..
