Zoo Day

Daddy and Terrie came into town for my birthday. The needed to bring my china cabinet and pick up Streed's old baby bed for Robyn. So, we decided to make a weekend of it. Saturday we spent the majority of the day in New Orleans. It was a gorgeous spring day, which is my favorite time to be there. New Orleans is so pretty, especially when it is sunny.

We went first to Cafe Du Monde to introduce Streed to beignets. He wasn't thrilled at first due to the number of people there. I am sure it is a little overwhelming if you are 2 1/2. He did like the beignets but was more concerned about riding the choo choo. So, secondly we rode the street car. Just a few blocks but we rode it nonetheless. Finally we made it to the Audubon Zoo. We bumped into The Williamson's at the first exhibit. Casey's parents were in town too.

Streed loved the zoo! He went several hours past nap time and did great. Sweet Ella fell asleep early on and slept the whole trip...and then was raring to go for the ride home. She talked the entire ride from N.O to Hammond--seriously.
