Discoveries

1. Butte Chaumont. Kylie, Sara, and I like to call it Charming Butt (or if you're a Siebach, Charming PLEASE). Kylie discovered this wonderful park up in the boonies of Paris and I finally got around to visiting it today. The weather was beautiful. 60's and sunny. Yum. The park is great because it doesn't feel so symmetrical and planned like the other parks in Paris. And there's a waterfall. And a butte. Here are some pics:


Bottoms up!

He was running really fast.

Waterfall! And cute kid trying to run from his pops.

2. Michael Kenna. I went to a photography exhibit of Michael Kenna's work at the Bibliotheque Nationale and was inspired. I really like photography and wish I was better at it. Have a gander HERE.

3. With 1 Starbucks Chai Tea, 3 napkins, and 2 hours of creativity in the upstairs of a Starbucks on Avenue de l'Opera, Sara and I can write an incredible story. Just call us the next J.K. Rowling.

4. Um, who forgot to tell me that humans don't have poseable thumbs, they have opposable thumbs? I missed that boat. I feel like my life has been a complete and total lie. Thanks you Sara for setting my life down the correct path.

5. I love Europe. Okay, that's not really something I discovered today, but it was reiterated today. Don't make me come home. Good news though. I changed my plane ticket so I'm now coming home 5 days later. Whoopie!

What a fantastic park! So when are you coming home? I forgot to tell you, I found your husband. It's Austin's brother. You have to be my sister-in-law. It's all arranged.

I'm so glad to hear you're trying to stay in Europe for as long as possible! It seems like you've had some pretty amazing experiences there.
