My new view!
I LOOOOVE our new
apartment...and
I can't believe how
quickly our family has
begun to feel at home here.
The apartment is furnished..
beautifully.
It's comfortable and livable
and if I were to ever own an
apartment here in Paris...
well, I think I'd want this one!
The location!
We knew we wanted to stay
in the 7th.
But..I also knew I wanted to
get a little further deeper into it.
And as far as missing the tower...
well,
we still get to see her watching over us.
And I admit..
it's a nice change to see her from
this perspective.
This past week has been busy.
Moving in..
unpacking..
(we had much more stuff
than I thought)...
and making this place a home.
The kitchen is always the
first to set up when we move.
I have mouths to feed!
And this kitchen..
not only so very well equipped..
but sleek and functional
and now that I've added my own
touches..
it feels like home.
I'm excited to get cooking again!
My new outdoor market on
Raspail certainly did not disappoint
on Sunday either!
I'm hoping to someday catch a glimpse
of Ina.
:)
ahhh....
the infamous farmers table.
By the way..
Catie, I think yes,
I do need to name her.
She has such a story!
I bought her a year ago..
sight unseen from a dealer in
Normandy.
Two friends had seen it
(Frenchlarkspur and Cat from Sunday Brocantes)
and sent pictures.
I bought it immediately after hearing
the details.
Cat graciously stored the table for a month
in her farmhouse in Normandy.
Her husband later delivered it to a
colleague of Steve's that
graciously offered to house it
at their house in the suburbs until
we moved.
Well, when we moved
last year...we moved into a
small furnished apartment and could not
use it.
Long story longer...
it was delivered yesterday.
After a year of owning it..
we finally meet and I love her!
Names??
(the delivery :)
Griffy the ghost.
He had a Halloween party
at his school last Friday.
(the kids are all on
holiday this week.)
He's with his little buddy and
two of his teachers.
He is loving his school!
