We were in Louisiana this year for Christmas. I left with the kids on Dec. 14 and Brady joined us on Christmas Eve. We came home together on Jan.1 Here are a bunch of pictures to document our fun trip!
A few things we want to remember:
-Madison threw up on her and me on our first flight. I washed and dried our clothes in the bathroom during our layover.
-Kathryn loved painting everyone's nails...nice!
-We got to go on 2 dates while we were there!
-Kenedi's chicken started laying eggs, which we ate for breakfast.
-Richard changed his first diaper.
-My favorite restraunt in Thibodaux, The Demitasse, burned down:(
-Almost everyone got sick, twice. A new person everyday.
-Braxton wants Brady to get a new job in Louisiana.
-We had a LONG trip home....our stroller got lost, couldn't find our car and then the battery died three times.
-WE HAD LOTS OF FUN!

Bright and early at the airport, where the lady at the ticket counter made us fax in Madison's birth certificate to prove she was under 2....really? I've never had to do that with Braxton.
Thanks to Royce who faxed it for us at 6 a.m.

Enjoying her new book.

Enjoying his new Batman game.
