Hello friends!
How is your week going? I am very ready for the weekend myself :)
It has been so busy around here lately...just getting ready for Easter and our upcoming trip to France and the usual every day hustle and bustle I will be watching my two-year-old niece over spring break {yep, plus my three!}, but then shortly thereafter, Steve and I will be enjoying 8 days in Provence and 3 days in Paris!!! I am literally counting down the days :))
I have made a big push this year to try and begin learning French! Finally!! And I am really loving the online course I am using, called Language 101. If you are interested in learning French, I definitely would recommend it {they offer other languages as well}. You can even try a French lesson for free on their site, to see if you like the style of teaching they use!!
I also signed myself up for my very first photography workshop, which starts next weekend. I can't tell you how excited I am to be taking this workshop!!! It is hosted by Rocky Mountain School of Photography and they are offering workshops all over the country in the months to come! Check their website for a list of dates and locations for "Photo Weekends" in your area.
I am hosting Easter this year, so I need to get into planning mode for that as well! All in all, it just seems so busy around here lately, so my blogging has kind of gone down hill, sorry about that! I had hoped to share the rest of my photos from our trip to the Cote d'Azur last November, but unfortunately when my computer crashed last December, I lost all of those photos and we have not been able to recover them {I actually cried about this, I was so disappointed...lesson learned, back up files immediately, don't wait!!!}. I will just have to take that many more on this next trip :))
Well I think I rambled on for long enough :)
Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!!!

Hi Tracey!
I keep following your wonderful (!) blog and FB page as well. I'm curious when you will around in Provence? We with my husband are based in Provence at this moment, so I thought maybe you would like to meet and just to chat about things + have a shot of espresso together? Of course, I understand it depends on time but why not? :) keep in mind!
Greetings from Provence,
IEVA
Such lovely photos from JDL Tracey!
How exciting that your learning French, and just in time for your next trip.
You are so fortunate you get to travel to Paris, I can't wait to see the treasures you find this time. Would it be possible to request a special item if you can find it when you're there?
I'm so sorry that you lost all of your photos, I would have cried too!
Wishing you a lovely weekend.
Sincerely,
Melinda
It is so exciting to be close to a trip to France! I know you will have the time of your life. Provence is next on my list! I do believe I will look into the language site you mention. Sounds wonderful.
I would cry, too, if I lost my photos on my computer. I'm going to back mine up tonight.
Wait, a photo class, learning French, babysitting fun, hosting Easter and going to Provence.....sounds like the Universe is trying to make up for losing your photos....;)
Oh I would love to take that course.Just a train ride down to the city! Just need to check my schedule.I am busy here too.Looks like another beautiful magazine!Sorry you lost you photos! That happened to us too! Our computer crashed right after our vacation and never got those photos back. Yes lesson learned!
Have a wonderful trip!

I have lost my photos a time or two myself and I cried myself silly. So as they say, you can cry if you want to! Have a marvelous time in France. My best friend is French and I have enough trouble understanding her English so I think I will work on that before I try to learn French. I hear it is one of the hardest languages to learn, so, good on ya! You are one busy girl - I love hearing about your adventures.
Such sweet photos from JDL. I love the French language. C'est tellement charmant. I'm also envious of your upcoming trip. It's something to anticipate during these busy weeks.
What an exiting trip!

Happy Spring to you Tracey :)
