May’s pics of the month are coming to you from Paris, where we recently spent the weekend. Spring is definitely not here yet and between the rain and cool breezes, it doesn’t feel like May at all. This weekend, we just relaxed. Dagny stayed with the in-laws and is on a mini vacation of her own.

So what did we see? Well, on our walk through the Jardin des Plantes, we stopped in to the Paris Natural History Museum…

Go see!

Happy holidays! For December’s pics of the month, I’m not showing you a pic of my Christmas tree (already did that here). Instead, check out this reflection in a nearby pond that we snapped as the sun was setting on Christmas Eve. Although it wasn’t snowing and the temperature was near 50F, the mood of the shot made it feel like winter. A wood burning stove was cooking something nearby, the air was still and neighbors’ Christmas lights were twinkling around us. This is one of my favorite pics of the season. Enjoy!

For November’s Pics of the Month, I’ve chosen two from my recent stay at Hotel Original Paris. It’s one of the coolest boutique hotels I’ve stayed at and will be reviewed in the next couple of weeks on my blog. So stay tuned to find out more about this colorful, edgy hotel!
