My Gym, Chatham, and a Spoon

When Marty asked what Bubs, Emi, and I did today, we didn't have much to say. haha. Basically we just went to My Gym and toured Marty's office building. 

Still a fun day, though! I loved getting to bring Bubs to My Gym to show her how adorable it was. One of the teachers just kept holding Emi after one of the skills stations and said "I could do this all day." So cute! 

How could I forget? We also had Lucky Charms in the morning because it's St. Patrick's day! This is going to be a new tradition in our family--Lucky Charms the morning of St. Patty's Day. It's also Emi's Uncle Chris' birthday, so naturally we had to send him a cute picture of her with a Happy Birthday message written on a piece of paper laid down next to her. Who doesn't love a picture of an adorable baby on their birthday?!

The tour of Chatham was short (I think Marty might be getting tired of giving people tours? haha), but long enough for me to eat a green Krispy Kreme donut they had at his office. I felt so cool with my financey husband and sister. haha. I love getting to go to Chatham because I know everyone loves Marty and he's really good at what he does. It's like being best friends with the cool, nice, smart, handsome kid at school. lol. But really, everyone loves Marty! It's also always fun bringing Emi because she is just the cutest little thing and brightens everyone's day. 

In the evening, as we were hanging out, Marty said he smelled something funny. We did a little investigating and found out it was coming from the dishwasher. We opened it to discover that our big plastic slotted spoon had fallen next to the heat coil of the dishwasher and had melted onto the coil. Marty yanked the spoon off from the dishwasher coil but there was still a parts of the spoon stuck to the coil. We took turns using a butter knife hack off pieces of it (I'm not sure the right term to use there). We vacuumed them up and re-ran the dishwasher. Our apartment does not smell good, but as we're immersed in the smell longer  more we're noticing it less.haha.

Nick's Fish House

We went to the breakfast buffet at the Fairmont in the morning. My favorite part is loading my plate with all the yummy fruit they have. (Papaya and Hawaii just go together.) Emi loves clenching her fists and making a funny, strained face. haha. We took a walk down to the beach before heading to Twin Falls. It was pouring rain when we got out of the car at the start of the hike, and I wondered what the rest of the hike was going to look like, but it ended clearing up at just the right times. I love how Emi has curls in Hawaii. On our way back we stopped at some food trucks and came back to relax before dinner time. For dinner we went to Nick's Fish House. This place is special to Marty and I because it's where we got engaged (and their Macadamia Nut brownies are top notch which adds to the special-ness). In the evening we went back to our hotel room and watched an episode of "The Floor" before heading to bed.

Last day in Paris

We scheduled a tour for St. Chapelle, Conciergerie, and the outside of the Notre Dame for this morning. I mostly just wanted to see St. Chapelle, but because we've been so busy seeing other things, when I went to get tickets on their website they were sold out. Luckily I found a tour through "Get Your Guide" that we could do that would take us through the chapel this morning. Marty and I arrived for our tour this morning and started making our way to St. Chapelle as a tour group when we found out that the employees of St. Chapelle were on strike so nobody would be seeing St. Chapelle for the day. It was a bummer, but strikes are very common in Paris. Really we just lucked out getting to experience an important part of their culture ;) With our tour canceled, we made our way to Sacre Coeur and Montmartre. The basilica reminded me a lot of the pretty churches in Jerusalem. The one thing Marty and I found odd was that there were signs all over inside the chapel asking guests

Marty! Lizzie!

Emi and I went to Chuze in the morning and then went to the park after with friends! Ronny, Jules, Evi, Isla, and Emi (of course!). We tried out a new park, Spearwood, and the kids liked it. Emi and I stayed a bit longer after everyone left and she made a new friend. It was this cute Chinese boy whose name sounded kind of like "Ethan." Anyway, his mom was doing the sort of thing all moms do at the park--cheering on their child as they try to climb up a ladder or try something new--but in Chinese. She was doing this, and then the most interesting thing happened. Emi started imitating what the mom was saying. It was so cute! Even though there was a language barrier between the mom and I, she could also tell what Emi was trying to do. It's amazing what the brain can do--especially children's brains. They are like little sponges! Anyway, I just thought that was really cool. On another note... Emi's started calling Marty and I by our first names half of the time. Today
