Singing to Lizzie, playing in the rain, volcanoes, Maxwell's baptism, and Vive la France!

 Singing to Lizzie for her birthday in July.

Making volcanoes

Maxwell (my nephew) was baptized earlier this month. Sam took the kids to attend the baptism.

Sam, Diana, Sara, Maxwell, Louise (Maxwell's paternal grandmother), and Marcia (my mom - Maxwell's maternal grandmother).

Sam has been preparing the children for the past couple of months to host a small French-themed gathering for some of our neighbors. We held the soiree in our garage yesterday just before a big thunderstorm hit our area. The children introduced themselves in French at various times during the get-together and everyone enjoyed French-style treats, photos, a country fact quiz, etc. We had a tres bon time.
