Ahh Paris...

Ahh, Paris... And ahh, three day weekend... I've had a lovely long weekend to play / work on my scrapbook. I'm in Paris, now (at least in my thoughts). It's been nice to go back through memories from two summers ago - you forget so much! (And I have a ton of cute Paris stickers, thanks to my awesome mom-in law and sister-in-law, to help fill the pages.) I am just full of lovely images from this gorgeous place...

There is really no place on Earth as romantic as Paris, except for maybe Venice. We had a brief but marvelous time in this gorgeous and historically rich spot, just enough to whet our appetite for more of its glory. We climbed to the top of Notre Dame, window shopped on the Champs-Elysees, watched the Eiffel Tower sparkle, strolled beside the Seine, toasted at the Moulin Rouge, feasted on fabulous French cuisine, marveled at the Louvre and Musee dÂ’Orsay, and even had time to feed some pigeons and listen to a taxi driver serenade us with old Elvis tunes. It was completely unforgettable and neither of us can wait to go back someday.

You are so fortunate to have been able to go. Mike, my hubby is from Paris, Illinois...does that count? We used to tell people we were from Paris and watch the expression on their faces...It was always fun until they figured it out!! Oh well..fun for a few minutes!! Sandy
