Normandy Heatwave Spurs the T's to All Outdoors, All the Time




P sporting his mom's hat



An important discussion in the sand box....







A rhodendron blazes away in the hot Normandy air at Chateau Blanc





P and C underneath the honey-scented wisteria at le Petit Normand, otherwise known as the garage..
















P can't be separated from his new toy cell phone









P getting serious about outdoor playtime....




Dateline Normandy -- A little Christmas in May? In what can only be called an early gift from Santa, 11 straight days of blue skies and balmy temperatures have greeted the Ts and the rest of Normandy, the equivalent of all the the nice weather we saw last summer. S is particularly content that Mother Nature has been so cooperative during his time off these last two weeks. The T's have been quick to take advantage of the belles jours, spending every possible minute outside on the grounds either chasing down a very hyper and happy P, who's enjoyed the exploring the Great Outdoors for the first time after 15 months of indoor duty at Chateau Blanc. S's new bbq grill has been getting a good workout and P has shown great interest in sampling the sand-box sand as well as keeping a sharp eye on the happening of all the chateau critters. All of his running around has meant one tired boy by the end of the each day, not to mention the parental units. But no one is complaining. Good weather, good days, good times. ~30~
