growing, growing, gone.

These two came to visit.

Yes!
They kind of planned their trip while they traveled, and for a while it looked like we might not get a chance to meet up with them.
Saying I was bummed about it would be a total understatement.
Thankfully, everything worked out for the best (at least mine, and hopefully theirs).

So last weekend we were Grow-ing it.
*Dad, my driver's license says Anne STEWART Grow.*

Alex and I took a train Friday night to Paris and met up with Courtney and Wyatt Saturday night. It was Al's first visit and my third. It was so fun to see his reaction to the city.

Pastry, Seine, Notre Dame.
Let the Parisian Love begin.

The Mona Lisa
As disappointing as ever.

Napoleon's Coronation
Couldn't be disappointing.
This one's for you, B-ry.

Winged Victory
A favorite.

This (above) reminded me of this (below).


Sacre Coeur
The hour nap on the grass was most enjoyable.

Versailles
Totally worth it, even after the money rape they pull for tickets.


Some more Growing.

Rental Bikes a.k.a. The best thing that ever happened to us.


2 almond croissants, 1 apricot pastry, 2 lemon crepes and 2 Nutella and whipped creme crepes later
we actually made it to the top.

Paris...Muah!
