The Muellers, our best friends in Paris, were recently relocated to a small village called Prangins that is just outside of Geneva, Switzerland. We took a train down there to visit for a long weekend. It was wonderful to be together again and the babies had fun checking each other out too.

On Sunday morning, we drove into Geneva to watch an annual swimming event in the lake! The water temp was about 4 degrees celsius and the air was -2 degrees. The swimmers went in groups all dressed up and/or decorated themselves for the 125 meter swim. Completely crazy!! We were all bundled up and absolutely freezing just watching them.
Afterwards, we strolled through the town of Geneva....stopping for lunch and shopping at a Christmas market, watching skiers on a small slope that was temporarily built in the city, and drinking hot chocolate at a cafe.
These two pictures are of Lake Geneva while walking through the small village, Rolle, where Daniel's office is.
We drove up into the mountains to a small ski village called St. Cergue for lunch. Everything was covered with snow and I made sure to hit Alan with a snowball =)
we baked and decorated Christmas cookies
Eloise traveled very well. Here she is completely passed out on the train

Great pics! What cute friends those two little girls are! And that hair, if it keeps growing straight out will be amazing when she's older.
