Jordyn's Haircut

Jordyn got a haircut yesterday! This was a big deal to me because she wanted it cut to her shoulders. We comprimised and had 2 1/2 inches cut off. She loves it!! She woke up this morning and said, "Mommy will my hair grow again?" I thought, oh no she doesn't like it anymore. I told her it would grow back again and she said, "Good because I want to get it cut again."

So here is her modeling her new haircut...
I guess she still wasn't done because then we came inside and she said take some more of me here.
Ok this one is hilarious...where did she learn that kissy face from? I do not take pictures like that. I look so funny when I try and do it. She's almost 5 going on 16...scary!!
Here it is again...boy are we in trouble!!
Then just when I thought we were done she said, "One more, I need to do a funny face."

Italy and France

As soon as we arrived in Nice, France, we walked out of the airport to get a taxi and this is what we saw... all the taxi's are Mercedes or BMW's.



The beaches in Nice are very rocky so they rent out chairs on the beach. It'll cost you almost a $100 for the day. No one said France was cheap!

The beaches get packed. Don't look too close...the beaches are also topless!

Fountain in front of our hotel

Darrick and I had a romantic dinner on the patio. We ordered our first bottle of wine together! Gotta have wine in France!

Darrick's region was #1 in the nation!

The hillside village of Eze. This picture looks fake to me, like a little village in a fairy tale.


The walk up to the top of Eze


We made it to the top

Darrick got to drive a Ferrari on the actual rode that the Formula 1 Grand Prix is held
I was nervous with him driving and preferred he had both hands on the wheel


Darrick's regional dinner

These little cars were everywhere...I thought they were cute and had to get a picture.



A picture of our hotel that is built over the water.


Monte Carlo Casino. This is a very upper class casino. You have to wear a suit and tie and girls have to be dressed up to be allowed in. It is $20 just to go inside. Darrick went in with some friends, but I didn't care about going in.

We took a day trip into San Remo, Italy
Phil and Jessi shopping in the streets of Italy
The deli and the biggest block of cheese I have ever seen.

Jessi and I found out that too much wine can be a bad thing

My new love I found in Monaco...Nutella crepe's!! Nothing here compares to those crepe's...
