New Orleans
Ben had his Mid-Year conference in New Orleans this year and I couldn't resist tagging along. The weather was a beautiful 7 Deg the first day we were there and we took advantage by taking a tour on a horse and buggy through the historic parts of town.
Our Tour Guide Molly
The French Quarters, all of these shots are taken from a moving buggy, but the architecture and culture are just amazing. I don't want to move here anytime soon, but its a must see!
This old mansion is set in the middle of the French Quarters and the original iron fences used crops to show posterity.
I love the rod iron porches that are all through New Orleans.

This Historic Church was re-built 3 times because of floods. The last time it was re-finished was in the late 1800's. It has a 3 year waiting list for weddings.
This is the oldest standing original building in Quarters. It has survived all of the major flooding.
Historic Napoleon House.
Famous Bourbon Street. Its clean and peaceful during the day, but watch out at night!
My Favorite, the local Jazz. I loved seeing these musicians out on the streets doing their thing.
Ben got invited to a Pharmaceutical party on the field of the Super Dome. It was really cool being on the field, Ben got to throw and kick field goals.
Presley and Layla LOVED the Saints Cheerleaders. Well Presley did anyways, Layla just wanted to steal a pom pom.
I didn't get to take pics of the food we ate, but lets just say, if I don't eat another po-boy anytime soon it would be just fine with me!

I heart Fall
Our Fall: (this post is backwards, so the first photos are the most recent activities)
St. Joseph's Pumpkin festival. It was so much fun to experience our small towns festivities. The girls had a BLAST riding carnival rides and ponies!
I mistook Micheal Myers for Ben--LOL!
Yes, Layla got a sweet little hair cut to her shoulders. Now her Donald trump bangs match the rest of her hair.

Summer, I will miss you!
Everyone is going to miss jumping on our new trampoline. It was probably the best buy ever! The girls love it, but putting it together wasn't so fun.
You may think this is just a cute pic of P, but she is really hiding a tool behind her back.
Both girls wanted to help dad
Its a low to the ground fully enclosed 8 ft trampoline--seriously perfect for kids! Plus I can even jump on it, so they will love it for years to come.
