Cow Appreciation Day

Mooooo!  It’s good to be a cow….especially when it means free breakfast at Chick-fil-a.

I may be biased, but these are the cutest little cows I’ve seen.

“I’ll give you my chicken for your bread.”

It didn’t work out for her.

Florida Vacation

For vacation this year we headed off to Crestview, Florida (near Destin) to visit some great friends and old neighbors of ours, Brad & Jeri.  It was a 13 hour drive each way.  We left on Thursday night and made it to College Station where we stayed the night with our friend Jessica.  (Thanks Jess for letting us leave Belle with you!)

We left at 3am the next day to get as many miles underway as we could. 

On the way…

Sunrise over Lake Charles, LA.

Tunnel in Mobile, AL

At the Beach

We made it to Florida by early afternoon on Friday.  We went and saw Brad & Jeri’s new house and then headed for the beach.

Nightlife…

Brad & Jeri took us down to the harbor and shared some excellent seafood with us. 

On Saturday they took us out on a dolphin cruise.

I asked the kids to wave at the boat coming in next to us.  This is what she started doing…

We spent a lot of time everyday at the beach.  Because we were in the water so much, we didn’t get as many pictures as we normally take.  We had a great time staying with our friends.  We can’t wait to go back and see them again! 

New Orleans

We left Florida on Monday morning and drove the four hours to New Orleans.  We toured some of the historic area around Tulane University and downtown.  That night we got a nice hotel in the French Quarter. 

We walked around the French Quarter for the rest of the afternoon.  We stopped at ate at a cool little blues restaurant and then went back to the hotel and let the kids enjoy the evening by the pool.

St. Louis Cathedral

The Mississippi River

Then on Tuesday we picked up Belle and made the drive home.

Another great vacation with the Lacy Family!

Best Weekend Ever

This weekend has been the best weekend in a really long time.  It’s been pretty lazy with lots of naps.  Surprisingly, we’ve also done quite a lot.

On Friday we got to have dinner with Maca and Poc on the Riverwalk.

Saturday we had a pizza picnic in the living room.

Then we watched fireworks at Seaworld on Sunday.

Then on Monday (no work – Memorial Day) we took Addie to the tea gardens and zoo.

Ballet Recital

Addison’s first ballet recital was this weekend.  She had a great time and did really well.  Looking at the pictures, it’s hard to believe that Addie is one of the youngest ones!

Happy Birthday Addie

Addie turns 3 years old on May 1st!  We had her birthday party a little early.  For her birthday, she wanted everything to be Hello Kitty so Crystal made her a home-made Hello Kitty birthday cake for her party.  I’m pretty sure she loved it.
