Swimming!






The pool is now 70 degrees so we have all been enjoying the pool, especially with the heat wave! This is the first time having a pool in the backyard and we are loving it!

Dolphins at Marineland

One of our favorite activities to do at Marineland is to play ball with the dolphins! It is great to see how the dolphins love to play and enjoy talking while playing!

Sarah's 6th Birthday Party
















There is an unbelievable amount of money that classmates of Sarah's spend on birthday parties. They are fun to attend, but there is no way that we can provide that kind of party. Therefore, we just invited Sarah's girl friends for a paint your own pottery party in Biot. It was a great way to celebrate and everyone enjoyed it!

Pont du Gard







We ended our tour of Avignon with a visit to Pont du Gard! The kids enjoyed throwing rocks in the aqueduct!

Chateneuff de Pape






We went to Chateneuff de Pape to tour the wine country. It was fun to do the wine tastings. We even found a winery that had chocolate too!

Avignon-Rhone River Cruise










It was a great area to explore and see the sites! We took the kids on a 1 hour boat ride on the Rhone river.
