Trip to Louisiana

Late last month, we made a trip to Louisiana to visit family. On the way down, we were able to break up the trip and stay in our niece and nephew-in-law's beautiful new home. It was great to get to see them and to have a perfect half-way stop!

We were only in Louisiana for two and a half days, but we had a great time visiting with everyone. Jenna always enjoys seeing her cousin who is so close to her age:

We also enjoyed a wonderful crawfish boil at our brother and sister-in-law's house. Don't these just make your mouth water looking at them?
This is before they were cooked, but believe me they were delicious. They had wonderful flavoring, as well as the corn, the sausage and the potatoes. A fabulous Cajun meal! It was typical summer Louisiana weather though...over 100 degrees at 5 pm and a heat index of 110! It was HOT! We did have a great time, and always love the chance to see our family in those whirlwind trips we always seem to make!
