Antoine featuring Yaya !

Antoine made the drawing, and she made them real !

Necklace

I have to be fair, I copied a girl, and she's much better at it : http://tinctory.bigcartel.com/
But I love it, so I tried yesterday, and I'm making another one today, it's a veryyy long work, needs a lot of patience !

sorry for the picture, it's from my phone, I'll send better pictures for the next one !

Miami

Heath and I are in Miami for a photo shoot...here are just a couple of pics. He's shooting a commercial - when it comes out in the states I'll upload some video so you can all see!

An assistant on the shoot actually shaded Heath from the sun with this umbrella :)

lyndsay's holidays

Welcome to Vars;let me introduce to you :my mum,my dad.............and my home

LeQuang's house

Kung Fu?

The stair of our house is very similar to Can-Tho's house. Is-it a sign ?

Skiing

We enjoyed our last week of holidays in the South of Alpes. We had a lovely weather and lots of snow. Antoine and Rémi loved every minute of their holiday!
It's going to be very hard to go back to school/work!

Black Eyed Peas

This is Isaac dancing to the Black Eyed Peas

Magnolia Contest

So the Bernard Pilgrims (Maurice and Martine included) visited Three Fountains Abbey again and came up with some new shots. No time for tree hugging this year, just a quick meditation and some instant relaxation !

And some complimentary views from Eurville : a couple or Redwoods in the Park, the scenic Marne river, some wild flowers ...in memory of Blanche...

iPad

So the Pughs, the Roses + the Millers have put on some additional weight. We have challenged each other...who can lose the most weight (% of fat lost) by our vacation in July. Whoever wins will get an iPad, which we will all chip in money for. We will weigh ourselves this Saturday and then again while on vacation.

And if you want to know how serious this contest is....here is what I received in the mail today. Three scones + this note

the chives (ciboulettes) are doing well. and the magnolia tree is from this year.

the magnolia blossoms from home seem much larger this year

thank you Claire!

I aboslutely LOVE my agnesb packable tote! (oh, and the boys love their candy too)

Pic Saint Loup

We had dinner at a restaurant called The Boiler Room in Omaha last night...and Heath was so happy to find a wine from Pic Saint Loup there!

Sorry for the bad picture quality...I didn't have my camera on me.

Holy Grail

We attempted the Holy Grail of Vinaigrette last week...it went rather well. It was missing something though, prehaps the Mistral? Or the magic of the Bernard house...or maybe the distant sound of the vacuum.

Easter in Montpellier

We celebrated Easter in a small committee.

The sun appeared and we were lucky to find lots of chocolate eggs in the garden!
