Okay, so here is part 2 of this weeks blog update... actually, this post only covers this past weekend, our great Adventure to New Orleans to visit some good friends that we knew in Virginia!
Bing went with us, he was very excited!
On the way, we stopped in Biloxi, MS and Daddy showed us where he went to school for a few months ages ago. We took potty breaks here... I liked that the store was called a "shoppette" :)
So, we had one full day of New Orleans fun, and we went to the Aquarium. What we didn't realize when we planned the trip, was that the Final Four of March Madness was occurring in the same area... there were people everywhere!!!
Smaug wore his fishy hat, it went with the aquarium theme :)
The penguins...
Feeding the parakeets...
Our friends have a boy (TW's age) and a girl (the triplets age)!
After feeding the birds, we fed ourselves some ice cream!
It's blurry, but Berry was so proud of herself up on the frog!
The otters...
Petting some stingrays...
Crossing the busy street... I can't believe he can still do this!!!
A big Walgreen's for Grandma B!
We had a late lunch at the Parkway Bakery and Tavern... home of the Po'Boy... J had alligator!
And what is a trip to New Orleans without a ride on the trolley?
TW and his friend where like two peas in a pod!
There is in alligator in those trees...we saw several on our drive "home" from church!
We headed back to our real home Sunday afternoon... Smaug fell asleep and TW put his hat on him :)
The kids were WILEY... and wind swept!
As we unpacked, the Littles got into my make-up bag... and primped... Mr. E had mascara in his eyebrow, Berry had some gloss on her lips, and Pretty Girl, well...
It turned out that our friends decided to take an impromptu mini-vacation to... Pensacola! So, we met them again on Monday for dinner (at that same date-like restaurant J had just "drug" me to)... and then said another good-bye with the promise to visit again in another 5 years!
In Other News: Since we are probably going to be packed up next week for our new Adventure in Moving, I'm not sure when I'll blog again... Grammy, I don't think we'll make it before our move... but you are still only a few hours away :)
