Month-aversary

Today makes one whole month since Tito and I came to France. Eric may think I'm crazy for making it a point to celebrate today, but any excuse is a good excuse to get a bottle of wine, baguette and pastry! The month flew by, but at the same time it feels like we have been here for a lot longer. We have settled in perfectly and couldn't be any happier! Vitré is such a great little city and our apartment really feels like home. I'm proud to say, I haven't been homesick.. I just miss people I left at home (and my bed, I really miss that). This blog has also been great, I've had so much fun reflecting on different aspects of life in France and it's been so cool to see where it's been reaching. Besides home, it's made its way around the world, France, Denmark, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Japan, Tanzania (?!), and a few islands. Seriously, that's super cool. I truly appreciate every single person who takes the time to read, so thanks guys!

Today turned out to be the best kind of Tuesday on top of it being our month-aversary for a few reasons~ 

The sun came out
The past few days have been a bit dreary with rain on and off but today the sun came back! Even though it was only a few minutes + Tito and I still got rained on, we saw the sun! 





I can drive! 
I hadn't driven since I've gotten here. We have a great Volkswagen Golf but I've been so intimidated by the streets & French drivers so I have stayed in the passenger seat. Over the weekend I had to run home from the arena to grab something for Eric before his game, and driving was terrifying. I couldn't even get the car to start.. But anyway, today I  finally felt comfortable driving and actually considered aimlessly driving for a minute. Even though I didn't, it's the thought that counts. Right? 

JOYCIE IS COMING! 
This made my day. My best friend, angel of a mom is booking her flight to come visit! She will be here in a few weeks! And if the weeks fly by like this past week did, she's going to be here like tomorrow! I'm seriously so freaking excited. I miss her so much and can't wait to squeeze her! I've spent all day planning all of the fun things we are going to do. Hurry up and get here Joycie!! 


I hope everyone's Tuesday is as happy and full of deliciousness as mine is~
