Random Photo Shoot with the Statues at Church

After church on Sunday, the boys wanted to take their pictures with the statues in the courtyard. I had my phone with me so I obliged. So ridiculous...

An Early Birthday Celebration

We had an early birthday celebration for Nick with a doberge cake - yum yum!!

The Post Parade Crash

And with hard parading, comes some hard crashing! We got stuck in traffic for about 40 minutes on the way home, which was good timing for naps. Unfortunately, Nick fell asleep with his hand in a bag of snack mix with chocolate chips...that was fun to clean up. 

Saturday Parading!

Saturday we hit up St Charles again for the parades, this time in front of the Best Western. The boys had fun watching the fun parades, dancing in the street and playing bubbles. IT was a beautiful day for parades. And Nick was full of all sorts of funny faces. 

The Laissez Boys! Always a favorite

A Walk Around NOLA

Friday (the 13th) Sarah and I took a walk around downtown. I wanted to get some architecture pictures and see what there was to see. We walked around the CBD, saw some fighter jets (could almost see their pearly whites, it seemed they were that close), saw the cathedral and some fun decorated balconies. And then we went into Lululemon where we were treated to the full LL experience. In honor of Valentine's day - free champagne; in honor of Friday the 13th - a taro card reader (quite interesting)!; in honor of a random Friday - a free cup cozie! And I didn't even buy anything!

Parade Time! Thursday

Thursday night of Mardi Gras, we got dressed up and headed for St Charles to see the night parades, Chaos and Muses. Ben was Superman, Nick was a firefighter and the girls were Mardi Gras super heros. The boys had a lot of fun watching the parades and playing with the Australian Sheppard dog at the house we were at for parade watching.
