In conclusion:

16 Hours of flight.

To spend a day and a half in Aix…AND I WOULD DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN IN A HEART  BEAT!

 

The grapes were DELICIOUS!

 

Nana wasn't fond of cars...

 

Start em' young.

 

Tara's in running for the cutest flower girl...ever. She was collecting rocks with her flower basket!

 

Steph's taking little kid's money...no bueno.

 

Future photographers?

 

 

 

As the girls worked...

 

The boys played...

 

And played they did!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wasn't sure what David was doing here...

 

Here she comes!

 

Love that David was still teary...I can't imagine his reaction if he hadn't seen her yet.

 

Tara collecting back her flowers.

 

 

Practically bathing in lavender.

 

I think he was trying to get even with the crowd...

 

But trajectory was a bit off...

 

"Salut"

 

Her grandma's so cute!

 

...not so innocent with the pole dancing.

 

 

The boys showing some skin. It's traditional to go commando...I learned it the hard way...

 

Not sure what's going on here...

 

 

Trevor obviously didn't like Steph's method of picking up as much.

 

 

 

 

Like mother...

 

Like son?

 

"I've had...the time of my life"

 

The sequence of events that led to my severely bruised ass.
