Meyssac : Le Village de Noel

Last Saturday we went to an artisan craft fair in Meyssac.  It started off very promising with Christmas lights, a carousel, crepes, hot chocolate, several tents full of homemade goodies, and a live Nativity Scene.  Its not every day you come face-to-face (literally) with a donkey!
(The little Wise Men went window shopping with the rest of us after they were done- so cute!) 
Oh and did I mention we had a run-in with the Socialist candidate for the French Presidency? François Hollande is also Corréziene (from our Department) and made an appearance to rub elbows with the locals. That's good politics right there :) 
The day was cut short, unfortunately, due to some freezing rain! The necies and nephew were waiting for Sheri and I in the car and we promised them cotton candy.  Keep in mind we had to run to the car and may have gotten lost on our way back.... THIS is how the cotton candy started off. 
This is what it looked like once we reached the car.  Each kid got 1 bite to be exact.  It was hilarious- we could not stop laughing on our way to the car in the pouring rain! 

On Sunday, I got to attend a wreath-making class at the girl's school- will post about that this week! It was very fun :)

  1. I am laughing out loud at the picture of the cotton candy! We Evans girls do love our cotton candy, don't we? Are you sure you didn't eat it on the way to the car (wink, wink)
    XOXO, MOm
