Paul here. Thanks for signing up! Nice to have some contact with home while I'm abroad.

So I've only been exploring Paris, what have you all been up to?! I'll have some pictures for you real soon, but right now I'm beat. We spent all day wandering around the Louvre. I feel like I've seen all of time in just a matter of hours! Mom, you would absolutely lose it if you saw some of the paintings they have there. Some of it rivaled your own, but for the most part, yours are better ;)

Donna, you moved into school yet? Hope California is a blast, bet Mom and Dad have called you twelve times already. I know they did when I left for school!

So speak up! I want to know what my family has been up to, Paris can't be much more interesting than Shelbyville!

Haha! Twelve? Try fifteen!! My dorm room is awesome Paul, much bigger than the tiny one I had to crash in when I was visiting you. Richard, how is it holding down the fort with your older siblings gone? Gotta get to my first class, woo hoo Calculus! I'll try my best not to snore!

<3

Paul!!!! You got there safe :) I watched your plane go all the way down the runway. Dad just showed me how to use this! Love you!

Glad you're having fun, Paul. June couldn't wait to hear from you. Did you get to see any of the armor at the Louvre? Better not snore, Donna, it's a dead giveaway.

Your mom's going to kick me off so she can say hi to her fledgling birds. This was a cool idea Paul, no escaping us now!

How do you know some of those paintings weren't mine, Paul?! I think they have a whole section dedicated to me ;)

Hope you got a chance to check out some of the sculptures, the Greek are my favorite!

I won't bore you guys to death, Shelbyville is as exciting as ever, not sure why you two had to spread to opposite ends of the globe! Post pictures! Write often! We're off to watch Richard's game.

Love,
Mom

Paul, Donna, keep an eye to the skies. Got a feeling I might be belting one out of the park. Will probably be over California first, then make waves over the Pacific. If you're lucky, Paul, and on top of the Eiffel tower, you might have a chance at catching it, but my gut tells me it's going to land in Spain. Go Tigers! Cya guys later!
