Day 62 - Church, Baptism, Concert

Today was a pretty good day. I wore my thrift store dress today :) I really like it. In RS, we talked about Adam and Eve. I couldn’t understand the translator that well, so I just read the lesson out of the book. For SS, I went to the Young Single Adult SS. However, there weren’t many YSAs there. Oh well. It was actually really good. Landon, the teacher, has very clear and slow French. So it is a good chance for me to practice and I can still learn. We talked about the rest of Joseph’s story today. I love that story! Then off to Sacrament meeting. I’m drawing a blank as to what the talks were on, but they were good :)

After church, I went with Chelsea and Angela to their apartment. We chatted for a little while and then Chelsea and I headed to the baptism of two children, Néphy and Lovely. It was really neat :) As soon as Lovely came out of the water, she had the biggest smile on her face. It was very sweet :) Après ca, we went to a concert at L’église St. Merry. Only this one was just piano and it wasn’t nearly as interesting. Oh well, I have to get my concerts done!

Homework time...

That is neat that you were able to see those two baptisms. What a special experience. Do you know them?

My sister Rachel had her baby boy Benjamin earlier this morning. This is the 19th time I've been an aunt. And I still absolutely adore it. I get just as excited with each birth. He's a new life. He's a miracle. I love children. With Benjamin and Abi, his oldest sister. I love her face in this one! Isn't he just adorable? Look at that hair! Oh I love him :)

Day 54 - Dernier Jour

Last day in Paris! I can't believe it. I'm sure gonna miss this place. Ali, Shamra, Mckell, Claire and I headed out to the city this morning. First stop was the Opera house. I finally got to see the inside this time! Beautiful. We had some fun :) Then we went to Berko's, the wonderful cheesecake place. It wasn't open and it was 11:35. We thought they wouldn't open until 12 but as we were sitting there waiting, they opened the doors! Yay! I got creme brulee cheesecake. Oh it was divine. This is one of the things I will miss most about Paris! Love it. Then Claire and I went to the Jewish museum. It was pretty interesting. I couldn't take many pictures. Then off to the Promenade Plantee. It was a really beautiful walk. I like this flower. It's weird. Then we walked back to the metro. It was quite a long walk so we were very tired! We went to the Louvre for a little internet time. Afterward, we went to Laudree to get a present for Greg and Martha. Then back to t

Day 55 - Home

I'll miss the metro, I'll miss the city, I'll miss the museums, I'll miss the tourist attractions, I'll miss the people, I'll miss the photo opportunities, I'll miss the rush. I'll miss this place. I got up early this morning, finished packing up, ate breakfast, then headed to the Roissy bus with Elisabeth and Ali. Who are, by the way, angels! I am so grateful to them for helping me. I absolutely could not have done it without them unless I got a taxi. And even then, I'm not sure. Once on the nice Roissy bus, I slept a little bit. It was good. SO much better than taking the RER B, which is what everyone else took who was on our flight. And it ended up being cheaper. Then we finally got to the airport. Elisabeth checked my duffel (thanks again!), which was fine on weight. Then I checked my large bag, except it was 4 kilo over. If I wanted to pay for that, it would be 150 euros. No thank you. So I had to get some stuff out of it. They gave me a AirFran
