October Holidays Part 1

Carlos's first school holidays of the year began on October 18th, and we had decided that we were going to give ourselves a complete change of scenery and hit the road. First, we visited Carlos's parents, and the kids had fun playing outdoors at the local playground and in their grandparents's backyard on the swing set with their cousins. Alixe especially was excited about being able to walk everywhere this time and chase after/be chased by everyone.

After a few days there, we went to Toulouse to visit Carlos's old friend Stefan and his family. The girls were a little shy at first but warmed up to everyone, especially Jumpy, the puppy (though the poor thing was scared of Aimy! He didn't mind Alixe so much, and I was surprised at how gentle she was with him.)

Aimy loved playing the piano
And she loved posing for me too!

And through all of this, we had gorgeous weather! More to come in the next entry.
