What do you when you have a belle-famille that doesn't drink? Why you spend the weekend doing all kinds of wholesome family activities of course!
You go rollerblading by the sea:
And then you introduce them all to bowling, air hockey (hair okay they will say) and pinball machines:
You fall into bed exhausted by all of that fresh air and then wake up the next day to take a walk in the forest:
Until you come across a patch of wild asparagus and someone has the bright idea to run back home and get a knife so it can be eaten for lunch:
And then while asparagus hunting, you will come across some crazy characters:
And then it's back home for lunch, after which everyone will sit around working on an insanely hard puzzle:
Let's see how that used to compare to weekends with the ex-belle famille in Bretagne:
Eat. Drink. Smoke. Nap. Eat. Drink. Smoke. Lather, rinse and repeat.
I might miss the alcohol at times, but the rest is all definitely a breath of fresh air!

Sounds like a great time. (And gives me the itch to do a puzzle!)
This reminds me of spending the day with my responsable and her family. They were very light drinkers :)
I like a nice glass of wine/kir/Bailey's milkshake... (!!) but I like that my evenings/weekends don't revolve around it (almost typed evolve! yikes!)
:)
So happy for you!
Your new weekends sound so much better than the old ones. I'm happy for you. You can save that glass of wine for a night out on the town with girlfriends every once in awhile.
Aw, jealous. My belle-famille is still mostly, drink, eat, drink, eat. Though they work pretty hard, too, so we also garden and they serve customers.
