Yes, I know almost two weeks have passed but, well, you know...by the way, today is Lynette’s Birthday...Happy Birthday, Lynette!! Grandpa "hey-hey" as the kids call him spent a week with us and what a fantastic week it was! We drove down to Provence where, like Paris, you can’t see and do everything there is to see and do. The first order of concern was Halloween though. No, they don’t celebrate it in France, especially in Provence. But that didn’t stop Sydney and Quintin, who had made sure their costumes were packed back in September. The kids ended up buying a package of candy and passing them out in front of the supermarket to individuals while wishing them a Happy Halloween. Quintin tried but was embarrassed and left it to Sydney who was determined to spread the word of Halloween to those who have been missing out. Many were puzzled but graciously accepted the candy from her. Some tried to give her money and there were those who just flat out wouldn’t take it. After most of the candy was given out, we had a picnic dinner in our room, read an old scary tale, and tried our best to comfort the kids who announced that this was the worst Halloween of their life!!
