Celebrate

living in France, celebrate

 

 

 

Standing in the middle of the street in Marseille behind the Grand Major.

I asked Sacha to take this photo of me.

On New Year's Eve Chelsea asked us to select a word that would signify our upcoming year.

My word was:

Celebrate.

Thirty years of marriage,

My Sixtieth birthday year,

Martin and Chelsea's upcoming Wedding,

My nieces coming to France,

My family coming to France…

and all the things that make up life around me

    It is 3:30 am here in Oregon, and I see from your Instagram story that Chelsea and Martin have just married. Congratulations!! The video and the audio of the IG story show a radiant, beautiful bride and groom who are, with their family and friends, exuberantly and joyously celebrating. Thank you for sharing such wonderful, amazing moments with us. On my way to bed feeling very happy for you all, Leslie
