At Boulou's

Small visit to his chalet for some culinary specialties and indian music...

Kyan is turning 6

He's been dreaming about it for a long time, to have his birthday at the Lego Store with his friends. After playing with a whole bunch of special dino pieces, the kiddos learned how to build little vessels on tracks, before moving to the race track... As for the cake, we came up with a rugged terrain made of chocolate, nuts and marshmallows, perfect for dinosaurs...

Weekend in Los Angeles

After numerous failed attempts, we finally made it to our friends in LA (Santa Monica to be fair, it's much nicer then just LA). Kyan, Anastasia and I drove down on Friday, and Michael joined us on Sunday. What a treat to see the Doreaux again, to chat while sketching with Delphine, and the kids were thrilled to see their buddy Etienne again. We even managed to go see the dinosaurs at the museum, and the mammoths at the Tar Pit.
And about the pictures taken at the beach, all three kids were wearing clothing from my creation. What an honor...

Best buddies

The other major element of the weekend was the visit of my friend Delphine and her son, super-duper friend of Kyan and Anastasia. Since they now live 500 miles away, we don't see each other as often as we'd like, and the three of them were absolutely thrilled to be together again. And since the weather finally decided to take a warmer direction, we got to go to the beach...
