Time for happier posts!

July 13, 2009

GRRR, blogger is NOT cooperating!!! On the upside, we have been on a whirlwind tour of the US since June 18 and we are not done yet! Since blogger is being a P.I.T.A. these photos are not in chronological order and there are just a few of each adventure.

One of our stops was New Orleans. Here is Tia Lia (aka Aunt Malia), cousin Kayleigh, Aunt Michele, me and the munchkins in the French Quarter.
Maggie thoroughly enjoying her beignet!


Petting sting rays and sharks at the aquarium. (Please forgive the smudge on some photos... someone touched the lens on my camera... I'm not naming names...)
Enjoying ice cream in a sports bar while Mama, Papa and Tia Lia...

Sat in lazy boys eating dinner and watching t.v. Gotta love NOLA!!
They even put Scooby Doo on one of the TVs for the kids...
SCORE!

And who can visit a bar without dancing...



On the tables :o)


The zoo was AWESOME! I really love the zoo in New Orleans. Even though it was Africa hot the zoo has a ton of shade, misters and even waterfalls to play in. I am only posting this one photo because blogger is not my friend tonight but trust me this zoo is a must see if you visit.


Sunset family photo on Fripp Island, SC.



Feeding the deer.

Hunting 'gators! They roam free on Fripp. Apparently these guys aren't aggressive like crocs are but even still, we kept our distance!
CRABS! We went on a great nature cruise and found all kinds of sea creatures and sea shells.

The 4th was super fun. There was a golf cart parade and games before the fireworks. Max even won a cute 'gator cake in the cake walk. While waiting for dinner my 2 munchkins waved flags and yelled, "happy 4th of July" to all who passed by.
This trip has been a "blurr" but oh so fun. And the adventures have just begun!
