Going to the Big House


This afternoon my dad took me to the big house -no, not prison, but the Chateau in Divonne, France. The Chateau is a favorite of the family's because we can see it from our living room picture window. We had a leisurely lunch overlooking the city below and our quaint village in the distance. We got great service; we were the only ones there! Although, I'm sure our service would have been just as good if it was a bit busier. The food was a feast for the eyes as well as our stomachs. Dad had Pork cheek - very tender - and I had some sirloin with spazi - quite savory. It was a lot of food for lunch, but thankfully the portions aren't too big. (Not Claim Jumper for our California peeps!) You can see pictures of our lunches and desserts at http://www.billpostma2009.blogspot.com/ on my dad's blog. (We shared the camera for our pictures.)


Bryan came home from Milan this afternoon by train. That gave him 40 minutes to get home, send a couple of emails, hug the kids and me, and then he was off to Verbier for a ski weekend with men from our church. It's a little fun that's well deserved! Let's hope he comes home tomorrow night in one piece!!

It's a lot of fun to see both of your blogs. I am so surprised Dad took you there. We always looked longingly at the chateau never dreaming anyone we know would eat there. The food looked divine!

Now, the next challenge is to get a private worship service in the pocket church next to the chateau...hmmmm, any major events coming up in your family's life that warrant a blessing delivered by one of your favorite pastors?
