Bonjour!

Hi Madame!! Sorry for not updating this for so long!  I've had a busy few weeks since I've been back!  I got back and had to start looking for a flat which was insane but I have found one that is pretty cool and it's in a SUPER nice area :D  That's always a plus.  Also I'm living with a french girl so I will have to brush up on my french this year :D Once I did find a place to live I moved in one day and then left for the Yorkshire Dales to go on a family vacation with David's family for a week.  I've just gotten back from that and am finally starting to get settled now.  I've posted some pictures just from my phone of some stuff because I still haven't had time to sort through my pictures from the trip as we took kids pictures and engagement pictures before we left as well! I start school Tuesday but it's not really starting it's just a library induction so I don't start until October 1st.  Hopefully that will give me some time to edit some pictures and show you some more decent shots.  I hope school has been going well so far! Does Greg like his job as Vice Principal? I'm sure Garrett's as cute as ever as well :)  

This is 3/4 of my room :D  It's so low to the ground it might as well just be a mattress on the floor but can't really complain :D 

These drawers are the cheapest drawers ever created and are horrible see through plastic so I covered them up today with this stuff :D

Here are a few pics from Yorkshire.  I was dragged up muddy hills in the freezing rain dodging sheep poop at every turn.  But it was still fun :D

These sheep were pretty cool and this is the only pic from my real camera that i've edited.  They were cool but they are everywhere up there! 

Hope all is well back in Indiana!

Garrett's Pictures

Hey Madame! Here are a few of my favourites from Garrett's pictures :)  I have loads more but I thought I would show you a few of my faves.  I will stop in on Wednesday after lunch so probably around 12:30 but I will let you know for sure :)  I really hope you like these! They will probably look most accurate colour/contrast wise on your ipad :)

Hey Madame! So the weather here is still miserable but we did manage to get out to the sea on one very rare sunny day last week :D We went to a place called Kimmeridge Bay and then Corfe Castle. 

It was really nice to see some different parts of England and I am hoping that it will clear up soon so we can go see a bit more!  In the meantime we have been taking some funny pictures and taking care of our guinea pigs :D  I am not sure why David wanted guinea pigs but they are quite good fun anyway :)  

I also got a distinction for this year at LCC which is the equivalent to an A+ so that's quite good :D and I now have my official offer letter from LCF for next year which means it's time to start getting organized for visa applications yikes!  And I finally got around to booking my flights I am coming back to Indiana on June 25th and leaving August 27th. Hopefully that's enough time to get everything sorted and make enough money to live off of next year :D

Here are some pictures David had me dress up for because of my awesome new pink glasses I got for £2 :D

Here are our guinea pigs :) The white, cream and black one is David's and his name is Snickers because he looks like a snickers bar and the other one is mine and his name is Reese's because obviously he is the colour of a Reese's cup :D

this one halfway creeps me out because of their eyes haha but it was cute because they were laying on their sides :D

Here are some Instagram pictures from our trip to the sea and the castle 

David spent ages taking pictures while we were there but they did come out pretty cool looking and I got to lay in the sun on a beach while waiting so i'm not complaining :D

This is Corfe Castle.  It's just in ruins now but they still charge you £7 to get in! so we skipped that and just hiked up a hill to take pictures of it 

David's yummy fish and chips with the biggest fish I've ever seen

Here are some of the proper pictures of the Castle I took on my real camera 

On the way back down the hill all these cows appeared out of nowhere and they looked like they really didn't like me because my camera bag makes a very loud squeaky noise when I walk so David advised me to walk around them :D

While we were up on the hill taking pictures of the castle a few patches of rain went by and made this awesome rainbow :D

This is the cute little town next to the castle

The one above is what the walls around the beach looked like at Kimmeridge Bay.  It is on the Jurassic coast whatever that means and they used to drill for oil there apparently

David's precious camera with his fancy shmancy new filters on the front :D

I dusted off the Danbos while david was taking his pictures for some fun :)

I tried to get the water going over my feet in this but when it did i got scared and ran away :D

And that's about all I've been doing lately :D  I hope your spring weather has been better than ours and there's only a few days left of school you are almost to summer freedom!! :D

oh yeah and there has been this show on BBC over here about guys going around Europe to different countries and see their baking specialties and there was one in France.  If you can get it over there it might be a good one for a movie week :D  It's called Hairy Bikers Bakeation and it was on BBC 2 :)

April Showers

Hi Madame!  The last couple of weeks have been pretty hectic!  I had to put up my print for the exhibition, then put it up again because the tutor told me to put it in the wrong place!  David's job ended so he has had the last few weeks off which would have been awesome but we didn't have a car for the first week because david sold his and didn't get another one for a week and now it's been raining nonstop! :D That's luck for you I guess.  I have to go back on Friday to take down my print as well.  Should be fun getting that giant thing back to David's house from london! haha  And I managed to get rid of my flat! Which is awesome because it saved me a lot of money but I ended up having to move out in one day which was pretty insane :D Hopefully after this week the weather will clear up and we can go places and have some fun!  We managed to book a second wedding to take pictures at the week after the first one! which is awesome but i'm sure will be a bit stressful.  I hope the last few weeks of school go well! I'm looking forward to taking pictures of Garrett this summer as well :)

Would the 25th of July work for his pictures? If not let me know what day around then would be better :)

Here are a few pictures from the last few weeks
