Back to school, first day for Anaïs!

The girls started school last Tuesday and were SO excited about it. This was Anaïs' very first day of preschool and I can't believe how well she has been doing, not one tear!!!
We put the girls back in private school and I could not be happier about it.
Here they are on the first day, ready to go! Sam (2nd grade) and Anaïs (preschool): I also love going back to uniforms...so much easier!

At this point, they both stopped posing for pictures and wanted to get going:


Fist day was a success and they could not wait to go back on the second day:



We are very pleased with the school and how they are handling Anaïs' differences. We found the right place for our daughters' education, and that is a great feeling.

Our trip in France/Spain

ok...so many pictures!!! The girls and I spent 2 weeks in Spain and one week in France. It was SO good to get to spend time with my family!!
I will just let the pictures do the talking...
This was a little carnival right downstairs from my sister's place. Girls had so much fun!




Yep, she won a prize all by herself:



We went to the movies to see the Smurfs movie in 3D:




Then all the following pictures are from Spain. We spent a lot of time at the beach and at the pool.






Pool time at the hotel:





Sightseeing in various towns:



My favorite town there, Tossa De Mar...simply gorgeous!

















More beach time:








Boat ride...Poor Sam got sea sick and threw up.
























The girls wore their Spanish dresses almost every night:


I have a lot more pictures but just can't post them all. We had such a fun time, next year Jeff is coming for sure!!! When you live far from your family you sure appreciate the moments you do get to spend with them. Can't wait for next summer! ;)
