The week after Easter we loaded the kids in the car and traveled down to New Orleans to visit with Granddaddy and Vivian. We had a blast and M&E have already said that they want to go to New Orleans again sometime. One of the many, many wonderful things about my children is that they are great road trippers, even little Ward. I think traveling and experiencing different places is so important for children and I hope that we will be able to continue broadening our horizons!
Cafe Du Monde for beignets. We put away several orders.
A stroll around the Riverwalk. M&E thought the cruise ships and riverboats were pretty cool. However, they were not fond of the freaky huge caterpillars all over the place. Eli even got stung by one and it was quite the fiasco. Seriously, we caused a scene.
Playing at Audubon Park.
The streetcar was fun. Ward was so funny - he danced to the noise it makes and then he fell asleep.
The pool on the roof of our hotel was FREEZING but that couldn't keep M&E out of it!
Joseph, Natalie and Isaac flew in to surprise Granddaddy for his birthday. We had a fun time with dinner and dancing to celebrate.
We also got to visit with my Grandpop, M,E&W's great grandpop.
We had a big time in the Big Easy!
