Au Revoir, Paris!

It's taken me 5 weeks to write this post. Every time I thought about it, I just couldn't bring myself to do it...the last blog entry! But alas, it's time to officially close the door on this chapter of our lives and embrace the new one.

Just a few days before our departure from France, we were lucky enough to be able to attend the famous Dîner en Blanc, a flash-mob picnic with a white theme. A perfect way to cap of our Paris adventure!

5 Things I Will and Won't Miss the Most about Paris

Sadly, our time in Paris is quickly coming to an end. It's been an amazing ride of 2.5 years, filled with ups and downs, new friends, new experiences, and we've grown a lot. While there's a lot of things I will miss about living in Paris {and some I won't}, these are my top 5 of each. {And some of my favorite Paris photos!}

Sunsets in Paris

As I was looking back at all the photos we've taken in Paris over the past two and a half years, I was struck by how many beautiful sunsets this city has provided us. So, what better way to recap our time here than a look back at some of these beauties!

The majority of these were taken with the iPhone since that's usually what we had when we were out and about, but they still captured the moment well. Many involved the Eiffel Tower, of course, but the river makes a great backdrop too.

A SURPRISE Shower for Bébé Guldan!

I seriously have the best friends here in Paris. The best. Unbeknownst to me, they planned a fabulous, Pinterest-worthy baby shower to celebrate Bébé Guldan's upcoming arrival. This actually happened over a month ago, but I'm only now getting around to writing about it. Special thanks to Lillian, Michelle, and Val for all of their planning, crafting, and food skills! Pretty much all of these photos come from Lillian, so props to her for documenting the event!
