The Weeziana

For Spring Break we went to visit my family in Louisiana or as my girls say "The Weeziana."
It had been way too long and I learned that we did not take near enough pictures of everyone and everything.  We took a long car ride with only an hour nap in the car from everyone but we made it with much of our sanity in check.  The girls did a great job.
Abigail and Great Paw Paw

Sarah and Great Paw Paw.

Grandma and Abigail.  Grandma taught the girls how to make dandilion necklaces.  Abigail loved that and even decided to put charms on the necklace and bracelet.

We went to New Orleans for a day and it was fun as well as hot.  We walked around, saw the square and the cathedral, ate seafood and finished with beignets.

Abigail found a hat to cover her face from the sun and she enjoyed eating gumbo at the restraunt.

After lunch Sarah was reaching a melting point and needed a break.  Thankfully she mustered the strength to get through the rest of the afternoon.

Anna and Sam had fun walking with each other.  Those two really love each other.

Sarah really liked the beignets and looked pretty cool while eating them.
One of the highlights of the trip was all the kids playing in the ditch.  They played in the ditch from 2:00 until 6:00.  Their Mardi Gras beads were bows and arrows and Lucas was the bad guy.  They wore themselves out in the beautiful weather.

They then had a picnic and nobody got up and everybody ate everything. It was amazing!

Two buddies.
 
We had a wonderful time with family who all were so gracious and welcoming.  We definitely need to visit more often.
