We had the chance to celebrate Thanksgiving with many of the other missionaries that attend the same language school as we do. We all did our best to make favorite foods from home and thankful to be together.

Our FIRST snow! :)
We have some boys who LOVE snow! They were so excited to wake up on a Saturday and find out that we had snow to play! It only lasted a little while but we all had TONS of fun while it was there! :)
We even made a snow man! :)
Some of their creations!
The boys each make a book that they can bring home from school at random times to share with us! It is fun to see what they are working on and also try to understand the French in their books!
Yes, we have masking tape all over our floor. With three boys, anything can be made into a road. It is amazing how long they can drive their cars on the floor. And what is Jonah up too you might ask: he found two limes and thought that they should drive the car. :)
Exploring Fort de Tamie
We had more adventures this fall visiting a fort near Albertville! :) It was a beautiful fall day, and the boys had a great TIME exploring and running around!
We love caves and tunnels!
Quite a view!

Just a trip to a castle
Tonight after supper, Theo was trying to draw a tunnel and Zeke was talking about dungeons. Sometimes, it is a little surreal that we are here and have the opportunity to explore tunnels, dungeons, and castles right in our "backyard."
We have a break from school right now which allows extra study time and time to explore and practice our French. We decided to rent a car for a few days to explore areas that are difficult to get to by the bus or walking.
Off to Castle Adventures! We toured Chateau de Miolans!
The view was spectacular!
Anyone need to use the bathroom?
Our attempt at a family picture! Ha ha, maybe we will get one next time!
Heading down, down, down the stairs exploring the dungeon. All the way down, Theo kept saying, "I am being careful, Mama."
Let us OUT! This place was amazing! The dungeon has 5 different levels. They had a drawbridge and a cannon room!
Not a bad view.
Enjoying a fall day around Albertville
I can tell Zeke is Danny's son as we now have to stop and look at every map we see when exploring around town! We're on the map, Centre Missionaire.
We enjoyed exploring the Thursday morning market followed by a walk through a park.
My boys
Theo and Zeke area always collecting something. Here Theo is counting some of the nuts we found. His counting seems to be a combination of a little English and French right now.
Some of what we enjoyed from the famer's market. Yummy!
