Christmas Crepes and Monster Snowflakes!

Christmas in Paris!
Crepes in Paris! - Parisian Eyeware!
Red glasses with Spikey hair for when buying Crepes in Paris. (Always buying Crepes in Paris.)
                                            Hooray for Christmas Crepes!
Hooray for Christmas Snow Flakes!
 Kenji takes Paris by Snowflakes
Paris Christmas Market, look at all the goodies!
 This is the largest Christmas market within Paris City Limits. The market stretches from the Champs Elysees to the Concorde! We started at the Concorde and made our way down to the Champs Elysees. Along the way we picked up some hot mulled wine, gingerbread treats and nibbled on cheese and sausage! We ended our walk right at the movie theater on the Champs Elysees where we watched MegaMind in English! And Keo made a little friend that happened to be from Virginia also!  Oh he was so so so happy!!! They sat next to each other and chatted (all the way through the film) with their 3-D glasses.
Sausages and Bread!
Oh when we saw these! A toasty place to warm your hands up and did we ever need some hand warming on this chilly evening. Every few hundred yards they would have one set up and we would stop, warm our hands and cheeks and get on with our Christmas Market Sightseeing! 
My boys, still little, I love the magic of Christmas.
Look at how the tree is planted in that piece of wood!
Our backyard is so cute. This is it, just enough space to build a snowman in the winter, plant some tomatoes in the summer, carve a pumpkin the fall and pick some flowers in the spring!
Say Cheese!
--------------------------------------
We are enjoying time in France and all the amazing things it has to offer. It's very cold right now, not many things to do indoors at all either, but that's ok!  It's all about the outdoors and the markets, the boulangeries, and pastries, and coffee, window shopping...lots an lots of window shopping, and lots and lots of pastry eating, and not so much exercising :(...but lots and lots of walking- (and eating.)
Preparing for our Christmas meal too! What shall we have? Frog legs? Oysters? Snails of course!

Hi Keo, I miss you. Sparky was skating on the ice and he didn't like it. It was so funny. Here's something I thought you'd like. Merry Christmas! Ben
