The first image in the carousel (top) featured a smiling selfie of the newly engaged couple in a Parisian garden wearing sunglasses, plus a cute sun hat for Deschanel.
Three of the pictures include Deschanel’s children taking in the sights during the trip. Elsie can be seen from the back taking in a massive historic hall featuring suits of armor behind its velvet ropes.
Another shows both Elsie and Charlie taking in the city views and a lake beyond from a stone lookout. And a third captures the two clearly over their mom and soon-to-be-step-dad’s sightseeing agenda, lying down together on a bench in a museum.
