Joyeux Anniversaire, Maman!

The dream of a houseboat in France was always my mother's.  It finally came to fruition as a way to celebrate her 60th birthday in style.  In fact, both she and Gaby turned 60 within a week of each other (Gaby's was, unfortunately, pre-houseboat).  Clearly, this called for a celebration. 

June 13, 2012 was the most beautiful day I have ever seen. 
Dramatic clouds. 
Bridges reflected in water.
Spontaneous champagne.
Barbecues and candles. 
Old friends that have become family.

This sunset will never leave me.  It was God's birthday gift to an incredible woman.
