Bonjour,

We went into town this morning to get groceries.  We stopped at a couple different stores and then headed home for lunch.  We pulled out some of the frozen shrimp that we had leftover from July 4, and had it for lunch.  
After naps, Joe took the kids swimming.  I worked on a chicken pot pie and a chocolate cream pie for supper.  
After supper, Danny kept asking, "Dad, are you ready for your chocolate pie yet?"  I told him that we would eat it when Daddy was ready.  After Danny asked several times, Joe said he didn't think he was going to have any tonight.  So, I went ahead and gave everyone else a piece.  Danny and Bonnie were happy about that!
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
