June

Early June held a lot of restful days and a lot of enjoying the city.  Late June held a lot of packing and DIY projects.  June was filled with lots of sunshine and James catching a fever virus and moving in with friends and seeing God provide for all our needs.  Halfway through the year already!

June 2 - Napoleon's Grave


I think he would be pleased with how they chose to remember him.

June 3 - Roses


My phone's camera was all fogged up, but the roses in the park near EIC Ternes were so beautiful this month.  In fact, June is the month of roses blooming everywhere in Paris.

June 4 - Running to the Store


This is a British institution, and it's the place to buy bacon and sausages like we're used to, as well as find things like brown sugar and baking powder.

June 6 - More of Monet's Waterlilies


We visited L'Orangerie, which has oval-shaped rooms with beautiful curved panoramas of waterlily paintings.  They're very beautiful.

June 7 - Pokemon Drawings


I mentioned Art for Kids Hub earlier this month, and I'll say again it's an amazing way to keep your kids happily occupied for several hours.

June 8 - The Conciergerie


I went on a long evening walk that included passing this building that looks like a palace but was once a prison and now houses courts.

June 9 - Bored on the Bus


We bought Cokes as a special treat on the way home from the library, but they don't seem to be perking up the kids in this picture.

June 24 - Walking to Church


I wanted to take a picture of my scarf to show the friend who gave it to me, and Ella was laughing at my failed selfie attempts.

June 25 - Moving Day

He's been looking forward to this week so much.
