Spring Break Trip

My mom and I took the kids to Louisiana to visit family for spring break last week. WE left on Friday and came home the next Friday. It took us 11 hrs to get there but the drive home was only 10 hours- we didn't stop much on the way home- we were just ready to get HOME!

We had a great time getting to visit family. It had been 3 yrs since the kids and I had been down there.



Gracie and her favorite cousin Rhylee. This is the first time they ever met and Gracie's been talking about her everyday since then.

My mom's brother and sister in law, my Uncle Gary and Aunt Michelle had us over for boiled crawfish. Can you say YUMMMMY?!?!?!
This was "our" pile. They had their own pile, which was so spicy they told us not to even touch the stuff from theirs!


Last time we were in Louisiana for crawfish season, Rhett wasn't even born yet and Braden was only 3 years old. But they swore they didn't like them.
(Even though Braden LOVES shrimp.) It took some convincing, but they finally decided to try them.


Can you see the look on Rhett's face as he's about to consume another tasty crawfish tail?! He LOVED them!


Braden loved them too, of course!

More to come on the rest of the trip!
