By the way, Patrice laughed when you suggested he might know of somewhere cheap to stay/eat. He said 'I travel business, I don't travel cheap!' That's why it's so nice to travel with him when he's on business!!

Champy-
I hate to say but we are only available the week of Oct 30 - Nov 4. That is the week Alienor has off school (All Saints Day is Nov 1). So we will have to be leaving Saturday night - sorry, can't miss church on Sunday. It is a 4-5 hour drive home. I thought you were coming in on Thursday. Just wondering, what are your plans for the day you get in, Friday? Usually you arrive in the morning coming this direction. If you plan to sleep that day, maybe we could do something (go out to eat) that evening after you have rested. Or if you have an exact itinerary for Saturday, let us know what site you'll be seeing and we'll meet you there. Please don't think we are trying to tag along. Please don't hesitate to say it's too much or too difficult to do. No offense will be taken! I KNOW site-seeing is easier without children. We only want to see you in between your tourist attractions. And I just wanted to make an effort on our end to get together considering you won't be THAT far away from us.
Again, let us know what your plans are. Maybe we'll just drop by your hotel and surprise you!!
Jocelyn
Thanks to all!! Love the help with Thanksgiving!! Hugs.

Hello all! Life is good. Soccer is in full swing, the season is 3/4 over. we play some difficult matches, the girls are 11-0-1 and 7th in the nation. We have had a pretty fun season with the girls. They have been a lto of fun and have truly gotten better both on the field and off of the field (fewer clicks and more combined activities). The boys are starting to figure stuff out. I, yes Jeffery Jon, had to have a conversation about pulling pants up. I know..a bit hypocritical, but I am getting old. I guess I am not a fan of looking at guys boxers...anyway, the boys are figuring stuff out as are the coaches. We have tightend the belt in many ways and have created a more structured men's team. They played yesterday without four of their "best" players and won 6-1. It is awesome to see a bunch of Blue Collar players work ward and get results. It is humbling!

In regards to my u17 girls, they are doing well, scoring lots of goals. But they have State cup this weekend. They will be the first team to represent a competitive team from Council Bluffs in nearly 10 years! They will have their hands full, but they are learning the system of play and are truly playing good combination soccer together. They have become a lot more fun in the past month. State Cup will be pretty interesting, as it is not a pool format like Utah. It is win or go home. Sort of nerve racking to be honest! But oh well, we will see!

Other than soccer, I have had little time to watch confernece on the web yet, but I as usual I will put it on one of the windows as I work in the office. this time of year it is truly difficult to attend church like I want to. But I go as much as I can...not enough.

I am excited for Bobby and his family. i wish I could be there for the baby blessing. I am jealous that you all have kids...cause thats about the only leur we have to get mom and dad to visit any of us. Bobby made me aware of this...I said I guess I could have a few in 10 months if I really wanted to, but I am sure mom and dad wont be too stoked to see he little bas^a*ds.

Well thre is my J. Golden Kimball moment. I will end...I hope next time I will have pictures for you. I have a shaved head! Sort of crazy...sort of nice!

Love and miss you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Jocelyn,
We arrive in Paris on Fri the 3rd of Nov. Sat, Sun, Mon we play tourista in Paris. Tue we start going South via Versaille.
So probably the best thing is to meet us somewhere on Monday eve the 6th. We will be staying at the Grand Hotel Leveque
29,Rue Cler - 75007 Paris
tel 01 47 05 49 15 fax 01 45 50 49 36

Maybe Patrice Knows someplace cheap to eat.
With enough advanced info we can probably find you or you can find us.
also Cindi and David will have a cell phone. I think you have their cell number if not
I will get it from Cindi. It would probably help if we had a cell number for you also
really look forward to seeing you and the kids

When exactly are you flying into Paris and what evening would you be available to go out to dinner with us all? We will be in Paris that week but wanted to confirm which day/evening you are free. Patrice will be working and he wanted to set up some appointments but didn't want it to interfere with seeing you guys. Since I knew we would be going to see you that week, I made arrangements to visit extended family members who live outside Paris. That is set for that Tuesday and possibly Wednesday.
Let me know. We look forward to seeing you guys, and seeing Cindi and David again.

Hello family,

I need some help. I can´t think of all the things we have (to eat) for Thanksgiving. These are the things I can think of:

Stuffing
Yams (I need Cassys recipe!!)
Green bean onion stuff (also need Cassys recipe)
Mashed potatoes and gravy
Pumpkin pie

What else is there?

I´m asking because while mom and dad are here we are going to have a Thanksgiving meal with Davids family (they´ve wanted to have one since I got here) and I need to know all that we can make so that mom can bring the things that we don´t have here. Thanks for your help. Love you all. Keep smiling, cindi



Well, those pictures didn't stay in the order I uploaded them! Here's Guillaume looking despondantly at his innertube!





I think Cindi told the story about Guillaume and the soccer ball, and then the inner-tube. Here are some pictures of his adventure. I tried to keep them in order. Guillaume in the sand is his way of trying to warm up. After that, I think the picture is him (or is it margot?) in the water with Patrice and David.




I'm sorry. I thought I had already posted these right when I got back. These are all I have of all of us.

By the way next weekend we will be in Utah to bless Milena Lucile Ginn on Sunday the 8th of October. I am sure Bobby will post pictures.
ps Jocy if you get a chance post some pictures of Cindi and David when you were together during ypur vacation. Thank You





Two weeks ago they had the annual tall ships festival at the Dana Point Narbor. It is really growing in popularity. Especially the evening gun battles off the coast. I have never seen so many spectators crowded on the jetty to watch the ships fire their cannons at each other-quite a crowd.
Thank you all for your continued postings on this blogg. I printed over a hundred pages out today and put them in our family memory book. One binder is almost full.
