The first day we visited the New Orleans Children's Museum. Here are Mom and the boys swinging on the porch of Mister Rogers' house.
and a tug boat.
And Andy serving some food at the cafe.
My hand on the plasma globe.
We then cooled ourselves off with a snowball. Thanks, Mom!
AND Claire treated us to some ice cream after dinner that night. Thank you, Auntie Claire!
The next day we headed to the amusement rides at City Park.
Having fun on the carousel.
It was Sam's first ride on a Ferris Wheel! He held my hand and made me feel better when we came up and over the top. :o)
The fountain was kicking Sophie's long hair up in this shot.
A couple days later we were able to have lunch with Kim, Lupe, Isaac, Nathan, and Gabriel, who were on their way from Texas to move to Georgia. We had a yummy lunch at Deanie's, then a short walkabout. I thought we could walk over and see Lake Pontchartrain, but it proved difficult/perilous, so we settled with checking out the 17th street canal instead. And a parting shot next to a pretty crepe myrtle. (It had been so long since I'd seen one, I forgot what it was called!)
There were fireworks after the game, AND the kids were able to run the bases. Here they were running home!
We also saw our friends Nicole, Wayne, Sullivan, and Harrison at the game for a bit, but had a longer visit the next day at their house. Here are the boys posing with the inlaid street names at the corner by their house.
So I took a picture of their corner, but forgot to take pictures of them. Nicole graciously gave me permission to use this cute picture from her collection.
And more to come later....

Great pictures. We have so many of the same ones of our boys at the Childrens Museum and City Park.
