Merry Christmas!

The whole family has arrived, and we are happy to be celebrating together.

Two days of extensive grocery shopping, and I think we are ready for some serious feasting tomorrow. Mom had a blast at the Gourmet section of Galleries Lafayette, and we left with a selection of delicious pates and cheeses. Unfortunately our two turkeys don't fit into the oven at the same time, so we may have to eat in shifts. We also got a bargain on a tree (pictures to come) and Joan and I learned the hard way that you NEVER enter a grocery store through the cash. The security guard followed me through the store to tell me 'c'est interdit!!'. Oops!


The parents are at Sacre Coeur (which is so beautiful, and magical at this time of year) listening to the organ concert as I write this, and the 'kids' are here talking about other things we'd like to see here in Paris. Musee d'Orsay is at the top of Karina's list. Any other suggestions?

We hope that everyone has a wonderful day tomorrow filled with family, friends and food.
Joyeux Noel!
Bonnes fetes!
