What I did When it was Supposed to be Summer

Bonjour, Ya'll!
The months of May and June have really flown by.  In the US, we usually finish the school year in May, which brings craziness with all the "end of year" stuff.  With all the holidays here, my kids only went to school 2 full weeks in May--viva la difference!  So school here was not out until June 21st.  According to French law, even though our school is American, we must adhere to the French school calendar up to 76% of the time, so lucky us!  Lots of holidays! So here's a quick catch-up to what we did with some of those wonderful holidays in May and during the gorgeous weather we've had in June.

Welcome to Roland Garros! The French Open begins in May.
