Vacation 2009-New Orleans!

The day after Aleigh's birthday party, we packed up and drove to Memphis. We caught a train out of Memphis and rode all the way to New Orleans. It's a great way to travel with young children because they can walk all around the train, take a nap, or play. The girls really enjoyed it, especially since they weren't confined to a chair for the whole ride!







Shawn and I decided to take this trip in May to celebrate our 10th anniversary. Can you believe it?? Ten years!






While we were in New Orleans, we took the girls to the aquarium and the zoo. We also went on a carriage ride and ate at Emeril's NOLA resaurant. Great food!















On our last day in New Orleans, we had the lunch buffet at The Court of Two Sisters. Shawn and Aleigh had turtle soup and catfish roulade. That girl will eat anything! A jazz band was playing, so Alivia requested "When The Saints Go Marching In". That resulted in the last picture that was taken on our trip...the girls dancing together in the courtyard in their matching red outfits. So cute!
