  • First baby outfit

    Not bad for $2.00!

  • 3d Ultrasound

    When knew they didn’t give you those cool glasses to wear when you saw a 3d ultrasound? And who knew the baby doesn’t suddenly pop out of the screen at you squealing “Mommy!”Oh well, it was fun to see my punkin’s kidneys, heart, feet, toes, and even tongue. He looks healthy, and yes, it is…

  • Arles, Pont du Gard, Avignon, Nimes

    Arles ArenaWhile the cooking class will forever be our most memorable memory of Arles. The small town offers many of its own exceptional sites including this terrifically preserved arena.
