DALI AND SUNNY WEEKENDS

I was asked to go to Sammy's school on Friday to help with project Dali.  We had such fun doing all sorts of Dali type art with the kids and other mom's.

We had such fun.

On Saturday we had soccer tournaments.  Samuel went with another mom and I took Benjamin to Combloux.  It is so disorganized but the kids love it so what do you do?

You can just see Benjamin standing to the right of the group in a white shirt.  He scored a goal so was quiet impressed with himself.  I went for dinner on Saturday night with the kids to friends up on the mountain.  It was delicious and lots of English was spoken so it was a nice break.

We went riding on Sunday morning and Perrick came with us.  He lives opposite and goes to school with Samuel. The snow has thawed in the woods and the flowers are out.

ON Sunday I was invited to Bettex.  Having never been I got lost but it's beautiful.  On the way to St Nicolas de Veroce about half an hour from us, I went to have tea with Binita, an Indian lady who moved here last year and has two children in Samuel's French class.  They live opposite Mount Blanc.  Here's the view, it felt like you could touch the mountain.

Isn't it fab.

She bought a Poisson for gouter (tea) because it was Poisson d'Avril or April  Fool and here in France they celebrate with the fish.  It was delicious, unfortunately I didn't take a photo though.
