What A Busy Weekend!

Oh my goodness, what a busy weekend we had! John and I left home very early Friday morning to head to New Orleans. His oldest brother's son, Michael, was getting married that night. We did not know that we were going to be able to even go to the wedding until one week before, so that week was spent getting what we needed. That included a tuxedo (yes that's right!) for John and an evening dress for me. As you can see from the pictures below, we both looked pretty spiffy even after a fun evening of dancing.

This is a picture of John's cousins from England that had come in for the wedding and a holiday. Theresa is Mom Whitehead's niece. You know John and his Dad in the back row. John's youngest brother, David, is in the yellow (LSU) shirt. In the middle row beside me are Hugh and Theresa. The front row is Olivia and Ursala, Hugh and Theresa's daughters and Mom Whitehead. This was the first time that John had met his cousins, so it was extra special.

Besides the wedding, it was Cami's second birthday. John and I got home about 7pm Sunday night, so we had to have cake and ice cream for the birthday girl. We will be having the party next Sunday at the house. We plan to grill some burgers, hot dogs and brats and let the kids swim in the pool that John bought for Cami. It is ten feet by 30 inches deep. Just right to cool off in!

The first picture is of Cami applauding our rendition of Happy Birthday and the second is her enjoying her cake and ice cream.

I just had to include this video of the Munchkin on a sugar high. Luckily she crashed pretty quickly and was in bed about an hour after eating. Caution - the video could make you dizzy! :)
