Update: Chris' first two classes went really well!! He has had some good discussions with students and faculty from Caen and from other countries that are here teaching as well. He is looking forward to his third class on Monday. So thankful for this opportunity for him to have this experience.
Ryan & Halle helped unwrap all the chicken broth cubes to help make dinner.
Apple cake (check) baguette (check) hot stew for dinner (check)!!!
Love my simple French kitchen!! Had to show a little bit of the decor
Here is a bowl of the Sausage Lentil Stew (sideways)!!
Here is a sneak peak at today's adventures at the manoir. Chris taught the first two days we were here and was home this afternoon for some fun games outside with the kids. He took some photos & videos on his phone & we will try & update the post later today :)
Futbal at the manoir
For Narnia..... they had swords & played some kind of hide & seek/tag game in the courtyard
Love her sweet smile - the kids had a great time on the gocart around the driveway

ReplyDeleteWow...I am speechless as I read and look at all of this!! (I'm just catching up over the past week's worth of entries!) The pictures are beautiful. The kids look like they are having such a great time. The lessons you all are learning and the experiences you are having are amazing! I'm so proud of you all and so thankful for the opportunity you all are having over there. Tell the kiddos hi from all there AR Blocker cousins! We love and miss you guys... Love, Shawna
ReplyDeleteHello B7 - I deleted the second comment b/c it looked like a duplicate. Thanks so much for your sweet words!! We love you all so much & are sending hugs to our AR family. :)
ReplyDeleteYum Yum Yum! Looks so good! Only 3 weeks until we see you, nos amis! Can't wait! When do Honey and Mimi come?
ReplyDeleteIt has been fun to follow your experience in France. I would love to see your list of books you mentioned that you have read in preparation for France...and movies too if you have it.
ReplyDeletethanks,
Michal and Scott Sullivan
Bonjour Sullivan Family - I will absolutely get the list from Chris. He checked out a bushel of books over the last year from the Baylor library. I will definitely get the names & write down some of the movies for you all as well. :)
DeleteI saw your kind note on Facebook. We have people visiting us here in Paris until the 28th & then will be here until January 2nd. If you are here that last week of the month - we would love to meet up with you all!!! I should have thought ahead and gotten some insight from you all prior to departure. We hope to explore the east side of France if we get to come back again. If so and you all don't make it this way this year - we will have to let you know & hopefully come by for a visit next time. Hope you have a good night!
Love the Narnia pics! Can't wait to hear more soon!
ReplyDeleteLove you all!
Paula
Love you Paula! Saw pictures of your sweet boys with their train on chris' facebook! So sweet. Sending Christmas hugs!!
