New Happy Year 2024

Charging into the new year like Django below!

Riding bikes to the park to play with cousins.

The four French cousins on the merry-do-round!

At another park, same attraction. “Faster Daphné!”

Invited to eat at a friend’s home on the second of January.

Using the phone as a mirror so the kids could admire themselves.

Painting with friends.

Walking through Old Town Nice with family.

The whole Petrignani gang! We will always miss Rob.

Daphné telling us to leave - looks like the band of cousins is up to something…haha!

Last night together before Noé and Nils flew back to Paris.

A visit from good friends, Béryl and Hector.

We love Edgar and his kids!

Nancy found these on her phone and sent them to me. This girl has some serious facial expression skills.

In her happy place.

Papi and Django work on creating a marble computer.

“Mom, can we have a bubble bath?” Me: “Oops!!! I think I put too much!” The kids: “We LOVE it! Do it like this everytime!!!”

Wise old bubble beard.

And his sister bubble bonnet.

We love when you send us Christmas cards, especially ones with pictures! I will then transfer them to the fridge, so we can see you all year long!

She got to mix her own paints with powder and water - a pretty fun project. Thanks Mamie and Papi!

The winter sunrises are breath-taking. This is my current backdrop on my phone. Makes me so happy every time I see it. God’s creation calms me.

Tonio teaching on Sunday morning.

Django was invited to play at his friend Lorenzo’s house after church. They are two peas in a pod.

One of Daphné’s horse friends had her birthday party after class. It is such sweet group of girls.

Daphné called a meeting.

I’ve always loved animals, but it’s so fun to see this same love in Daphné. It’s deep. And it keeps growing. All worries cease. Peace takes over. It is so incredible that God gave us animals to enjoy.

Wednesday night inter-church worship/prayer meeting. So cool to pray with other brothers and sisters in Christ from Nice.

A good way to start a year. Lord, we trust you with our days. We give you our hearts. Help us be more like you. Help us share your love and salvation with others. You are worthy of all praise, glory and honor! Amen.

Love Linz
