April has been springing with blossoms over here

It's been my birthday month! In between crying about my commute we've managed to have a lovely weekend escape to the Loire Valley to visit Chenonceau and Chambord, Tours and the lovely Chinon. In betwixt it all I've had the pleasure of tea time and cocktail hours with the ladies. And to top it all off the man and I just got back from Bordeaux and Archachon.  Spent a lovely afternoon in one of my fave spots Parc Floral talking and getting my photo taken for Chloe's photo project. I've gained a few kilos from all this happiness and my cup does runneth over. But you won't hear any complaints here!
Such a lovely photo of Ashleigh at the Hotel Crillion

*waves* Hi girlie! :)

Long time, no visit here from me. I came over on a whim this morning (I actually had some time on the computer today!), checking in to see how things are going. I saw our photo up there from Les Editeurs and realized it has been a few weeks since we have connected. I hope that all is going well for you.

Thank you for sharing your photos of the tea time and Parc Floral, too! "Tea at the Crillon" sounds such a classic posh Paris experience, and I am with you on loving the Parc Floral! It is so pretty there.

Be well & hope to connect with you again soon!
