A Day in New Orleans...

We took a trip to New Orleans on Saturday since we really haven't done anything summer as a family. We first went to the Saints practice , then the Children's Museum, and then to the River Walk for lunch. It was a little hot but I think the kids had fun.

Mason and Ava sitting on the stands watching the Saints practice. Mason just loved that they were so close to him. Ava kept saying the whole way back to the car, " basetball fast"...in other words Football fast!!!

Mason checking his speed while throwing a baseball...about 15 MPH!!

Ava pulling really hard to get that "Gator" out!

Abby just relaxed and went with the flow. She was such a great baby to have with us!!

Mason and Ava in the pretend Eye doctor office. Mason is checking Ava's eyes!!

Twirling with the ribbons...look at that she is doing a "pl'eat"! I guess that is how you spell it...like in Ballet

Pulling a BIG bubble around themselves!

Mason crabbing out of the boat!

Ava found the broom in the pretend Cafe

Getting Mommy something to drink!

Notice she has prepared Spaghetti with Bologna on top!! Daddy and Mason waiting patiently for the food

Shopping in the pretend grocery store

Ava just loved shopping in the grocery store..can't you tell!!

She is going to be a cashier just like her mommy. My first job was a cashier at Kroger.

Mason watching the Mr. Rogers trolley go back and forth...I think he should have stayed there forever.

Josh and Mason putting on a puppet show.

Watching how to make fudge at the River Walk
We had to leave a little early because Mason started breaking out in hives...Poor thing...he was miserable!!
