Firstly---I want to thank whoever left me the comment to bring a journal and write down my thoughts about our trip each night. I forgot to bring the journal, but I used ...

Parisian Pretty
Everything is so beautiful here---the Parisians really focus on making everything as pretty as possible. Their malls are incredible. For me, seeing the mall decor, store windows and the general interiors of the malls was more exciting than the shopping itself (because uh, everything is super pricey here).

Getting to the Bottom of Things: Eiffel Tower Tour
Can you guess where we went today? It was dry out and so sunny and clear---the perfect day to visit the Eiffel Tower---but we were disappointed to learn that we couldn't go to the top level, it was closed because of wind.

Our 2010 Christmas Card from Shutterfly
I just realized I never shared how our 2010 Christmas card turned out---if you recall, I got them through the Shutterfly blogger promotion. I just love how they turned out and we got a lot of sweet compliments on them. (click to enlarge) What do you think? I used this picture because I liked that we weren't looking at the camera and the ...
Packing Update: New Additions & Questions About Hair Dryers & Travel
After reading through my comments and many message board comments about last night's packing adventure, I made a few adjustments to my suitcase while still maintaining the same amount of room. I eliminated:The sweater Candice lent to me---it was a teeny bit short on me and took up a lot of space so I decided to forgo it since I already have a lot ...
Packing for Paris: So Many Sweaters, So Little Room
Thank you to everyone who commented on my last post about PetsMart. I was saddened to hear additional feedback about negative grooming experiences there but I was also glad to read about some good ones.
