This past week, we packed up and headed South to celebrate 4th of July in true Southern style. We had a great visit spending time with family, celebrating and of course, eating! We started out the week with lots of family time and it was nice to relax and just spend time together.
In the middle of the trip, Chris and I headed down to New Orleans for 2 nights for our last 'babymoon'. We stayed in the French Quarter and with no plans whatsoever, took our time exploring the city, trying to stay cool and of course, more eating! We spent some time at the aquarium, took a ride on the St. Charles trolley, explored Jackson Square, walked up and down Bourbon Street and popped in and out of a bunch of stores. We were able to sleep in, go swimming and peruse the restaurant options. And when nothing was really looking fabulous for dinner, we decided to drop by Cafe Du Monde and just eat beignets! When else do you have an excuse to eat donuts for dinner?
As you can imagine, it was really hot down there, but it seems like the whole country was in the 100s that week, so we couldn't really complain any more than anyone else. Overall, it was a great trip and fun to see New Orleans again, especially since the last time I was there, I was 11.
We went to the Botanical Gardens for a 7am shoot and are excited to see the results. Thank you Daddy, for schlepping all of your equipment, waking up early and withstanding the heat so that we could get some good pictures! More pictures to come but for now, here is the preview picture. We can't wait to see how they all turn out, but knowing how your other pictures come out, we are sure they will be great!
I am feeling great, Blueberry is moving around A LOT and we have another doctor's appointment tomorrow!

It was GREAT seeing Y'all, even for a little bit! I've begun putting the pictures on my computer and I must say, there are many good ones. Your personality really shows (both of you). I'll get them to you soon so that you can enjoy them also.
Love,
Daddy
