Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom. Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never ever the same. ~ Flavia Weedn

La Soirée Blanche!
















In honor of Christophe's 40th birthday, we all showed up at CloClo and Mariethé's aux "Terres Blanches" for a huge weekend and La Soirée Blanche! Charly was put in charge of electricity and of course installing the disco ball, so we were the earlybirds and showed up Saturday at noon to start the festivities and help with preparations! The girls helped their beloved Corto make appetizers which was really just a good excuse to play with dough and have flour fights, but they turned out to be tasty nonetheless! Despite the threat of a thunderstorm, the evening started off perfectly with sunkissed guests arriving donned in white and ready for the another one of Christophe and Delphine's fabulous parties! Christo served up moules au muscat (mussels) and pit-fired baby lamb (a tradition!). The rosé poured along with the gin Kas, the guys played some petanque in the newly inaugurated terrain, and the dance floor spun with white everywhere! (Style Hint: big white sunglasses are back!) The kids had a blast and crashed upstairs, and Christo, Charly, Delph and Michele debriefed the evening around 5am poolside! But that wasn't the end of things! Sunday was another day, and by noontime we had another 40 guests or so for an afternoon "after party!" Absolutely a divine weekend! Grace à Christophe et famille!
