June (2026) in 20 snapshots

It’s almost the end of July, and I’m finally finishing the blogs for June. I hope you enjoy 20 little glimpses into our month of June. I made 2 other blog posts for Star Academy and Village des Fous, that also happened in June.

Eating our friends, Tristan and Romane’s, home with our other friends Sebastien and Frances.

Django’s imagination leaves me in awe and also cracking up!

Pat and GayNell’s visit was a blessing.

Team meeting with the Calvary Chapel Nice “staff".”

Cooling off with my boy.

Braces and missing teeth.

Tonio and Daphné rode bikes down the coast to CAP3000, a local mall.

Django enjoys mama’s book light.

Daphné on the last day with her guitar teacher, James. Next year, she will have a different teacher. James was such a blessing and encouragement to our girl.

Church Friday evening beach picnic.

Ben and Jake’s baptism.

Django and I stay “cool” under the parasol for the baptism.

Tonio’s football (soccer) team. We had a barbecue with all the families to celebrate the end of the season. Tonio has been playing with this team for 20 years. The players have changed, but there are a few from the original team, Tonio and Wil (far right) and maybe others.

And for a family barbecue, a pool and blowup slide make it that much more fun for all the kids!

End of the year show, La Kermesse. Daphné with her friend Alice.

Django’s class did an artist fashion show. Django’s group represented street art and Space Invaders.

Daphné’s class. She is the first red shirt on the left.

Django and 2 of his classmates having fun with Kapla bricks.

Fun at a friend’s pool! Django, Adrien and Leon.

Daphné and Django standing on water. Haha!

Long warm days...
The pace of life slows...
A time for picnics and rest in the shade...
Lord, help me to rest awhile
in the cooling shade of your presence.
Slow down my restless heart and
fill me with
gentle compassion for all your people.
