Anthony & I, pretending like we can afford $200 Dolce & Gabbana glasses! Anthony was just in Italia and so he was so excited to see these, it makes him feel like he’s back home.

This is as close to Europe as we’re going to get at the mall.

I don’t think the employees were taking us too seriously.

I put up some of my favorite pictures, hard to choose! I hope you enjoy them…If you do happen to look at them, please comment on this site and let me know which ones you like most!

It’s just a start. Soon I’ll have some more albums up.

Hello everyone, how are you, lovely to see you.

If you wouldn’t mind praying for me, I’d appreciate it. I have some things coming up that are interesting, and I really need some prayer for guidance. Job interviews, etc etc. I’ll fill you in when I know some more info.

In the meantime, I feel the need for some relaxing thoughts, and so I’m going to put some pictures up of my grandparents’ farm in Kansas. It’s one of my favorite places, and it helps me to relax, just thinking about childhood memories there…ahh….I hope it helps you relax.

I’m sorry I had to make it so small, but you can get an idea. This is a picture of all of the feet pictures I have so far, at least I think it is.

Arriving, and driving through Paris in our bus.

The Arc d’Triumph, as viewed from a stoplight!

Myself and the Arc. You can at least get an idea of how grand it is in scale.

Some beautiful flowers I happened upon in a park across the Seine from the Eiffel Tower.

Me, and some tower.

Such beautiful tulips everywhere in the city. My favorite flower…how wonderful.

The Musee d’Orsay, as viewed from along the Seine.

The Sacre Coeur, an amazingly beautiful church, with one of the most famous views of Paris from the top. This is also close to Montmartre, the artistic section of Paris where the artists hang out, and the people sit at the little cafe

A young girl outside of the Sacre Coeur. I hope that I wasn’t invading her privacy or disrespecting her by taking a picture of her while she was asking for money, but I thought it was an interesting picture.

The beautiful Eiffel Tower at night. It was so romantic, except I was alone! Ahh! It’s almost blasphemic. Anyway, it was a beautiful evening.

Parisian lovers, enjoying the warm spring evening, and dusk under the Eiffel Tower.

I took a little stroll while I was waiting for it to reach 10:00, so that the tower would begin to light up.

After the Tower lit up for about 8 spectacular minutes, I walked across the street to get a picture of the carousel.

I also visited the very famous cemetary in Paris, full of artists, and painters, and composers.

MOULIN ROUGE! Need I say more…If you haven’t seen the movie with Ewan McGregor singing about how his gift is his song, you won’t understand.

One of my favorite pictures from inside the Notre Dame. Unbelievably beautiful. They were also holding mass as I was walking around. It was pretty beautiful.

The metro entrance in Montmartre.

3 amazing French men (there were a lot of those) discussing life in the Tuileries Garden near the Louvre.

I bought a beautiful painting from this fabulous painter. It’s something I’ve always wanted to do if I made it to Paris. He gave it to me for almost half of what he wanted, what a great way to end the trip!
