Notre Dame... and everyday life.

Okay, so again, here are just a bunch of jumbled up pictures of life here in Paris!



First of all, I thought OPI nail polish was expensive in the US, but here its even more! 13.90 Euros! Or the special promo, 2 for 25.90! It is insane!


And I always love the big bags of M&M's! But not when it is 36 Euros!


And my love... OREOS. sadly too expensive to buy. A pack of 16 cookies is almost 3 Euros. You can get the huge boxes of Oreos for that much money in the States.

They have Sephora everywhere! This store, on Champs Élysées, is gigantic!


The weather was pretty nice the first few weeks I was here, now it is getting cold and rainy! But I love it and I love looking out my window and seeing the clouds covering the Eiffel Tower!


<3 RAIN




We love building cool towers!



So every Wednesday the kids go to a place called Paris Racing. And its basically just a country club. They go for two hours and have tennis lessons for one hour, and then just play a bunch of different sports in their other class. Anyway, the place is amazing! It is located in Bois de Boulogne which is amazingly gorgeous! And the above picture is the pool at the club. Michael Phelps swam here!!!! And below, are just pictures of around the club where I usually hang out, waiting for the kids.




They have a lot of cookie-snacks like this. And they are amazing!



PARIS...

It really is the city of LOVE.




I was so excited when I finally bought my very own baguette!


Benjamin is very talented and loves when I take pictures of him doing cool things!



NOTRE DAME.
GORGEOUS.
And I had to make these pictures bigger because this place is so amazing! Just like at the Louvre, these pictures do not do Notre Dame justice. At all. Also, I went to Mass here on Sunday. It was an awesome experience, even though I couldn't understand any of it.
























 Thank goodness he loves Harry Potter too!


And it is so fun when he paints my nails!! 


 Every time I look out my window, I just cannot get over this view. I love all the buildings so much!


This is the night I went to the Eiffel Tower to study and watch it sparkle! It is gorgeous at night!





The following are books Benjamin brought home from school. Just had to post them for my mom and Aunt Laura!!
