Barracos on the Bayou

Today my lovely family and I went to pick up my cousin (said in best Cajun accent) who lives in New Orleans.  We met my grandparents at this little place in.........Sorrento.  At this little place called Cajun Village.  For starters when we pulled up to the "village" and our grandparents had just pulled up.  First we went to this antique store. I took this picture for you Ami.  :) I know you love antiques. Mom will have to take all of us there for a field trip sometime. Well this picture is for Y-O-U. Isn't it cute. I know this might sound wired but I loved the doors on all the "cabins" they were BIG and they had the old glass doorknobs, they were so pretty.

Next we went to the gift shop.  Anna got antsy, so I took her outside on the porch. They were playing Cajun music.  They also had a play guitar that had no strings so I gave it to her and she started lip singing with the guitar.  Dad even got the guitar and started "playing".  Here is a picture of our star. 


And our other star. Boy was he havin' fun.




And this picture is for my best friend, Catie to drool over.  They were all really good. : )
(just kidding)


In the gift shop there was this gumball machine that looked like a old gas pump.
Here's the picture:


Then we went to see the Alligators.
Here is a better picture.  Well........ a little better.


We ended our day with beignets. YUMMMM. And chocolate milk.
Coffee for the adults. :{
All of us had a great day.
And until Wednesday we have an extra child. Well a 17 year old.
