No More Gummy Smiles

Balade à Biot

Lately, we've been loving to take family walks through different towns and villages to burn of some of the girls' energy.

They sprint up and down cobblestoned hills while we stroll along behind them.

It is a nice way to see all the little side streets these gorgeous towns have tucked away.

This was our afternoon in Biot

SAHM Life feat. Mayalein Tights

My life as a SAHM (stay at home mom) is simply me having my hair thrown up into a mom bun and wearing my same momiform for the umpteenth time but joyfully dressing up my goobers in adorable outfits. 😂

Case in point:

So I was excited to try out these adorable dip dye tights from Mayalein.

France Finds: Talmont-sur-Gironde

While in the Sud Ouest for Christmastime, we briefly visited a quaint village called Talmont-sur-Gironde.

It was a very chill and windy day, which cut our visit short as the girls were freezing.

Nonetheless, it was a lovely time.

Three Christmases Throughout France

Every year we have a few Christmas celebrations, but celebrations were prolonged this year as we road-tripped to visit the girls' great grandma on the west coast.

The girls were so good with all the traveling we made them sit through.

(Makes me want to do more family roadtrips, but the hubby isn't feeling that 😂)

Here are our three different celebrations...

Trimming of the Tree

The girls gain so much joy from adding baubles and trinkets to our Christmas tree.

Last year they took a pile of clean laundry I had yet to put away, and draped it on the plastic branches of our fake tree.
They thought it was so much fun and were so proud of their work.
So this year I just let them at it again.

France Finds: Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild

I have been living in France for almost 6 years and specifically the French Riviera/Côte D'Azur for 5 years, so I thought I would start up a series about places I love here.
First up on the list:

That Autumnal Feeling

Winter is creeping up on us.
It snowed near my husband's workplace today...
So let's pretend it is still perfect autumnal weather. 👍
