The old jazz song is one of our favorites, and it's one of the first Christmas songs we listen to each year.
Throughout the fall season, we have attempted on several occasions to drive to New Orleans for the day, but each time, something would come up preventing us from doing so. Yesterday, we got up and hit the road, daring anything to stand in the way between us and a little Christmastime in New Orleans.
We arrived just in time for lunch. Our first choice, Crabby Jacks, was closed, so we headed into the quarter to another favorite, Camellia Grille. So yum!
Daddy with the big three. So thankful to my love for making today so special!
Mommy and Story.
Don't worry, we didn't go immediately to Cafe Du Monde after eating lunch! We did walk around the quarter quite a bit, and boy was it cold!
Yummy beignets!
My two favorite fellas in all the land.
Sweet sisters.
I'm loving this one! Powdered sugar everywhere!
My little loves know that I love to capture their pictures, so several times throughout the day they asked me to take their pictures. I love it!
We tried to walk inside the St. Louis cathedral while we were there, but it was closed for some reason.
Silly faces are where it's at.
Overlooking Jackson Square.
Next, we hopped on a trolley for a ride. These two are so funny together. I told David they remind me of an old married couple, so cute!
Daddy and his mini me.
My Tilly girl.
Sweet Summer.
Handsome boy.
She wanted to pose for me.
Story looked out the window the whole time, taking it all in.
After some time in the quarter and driving around our old stomping grounds, we headed over to LaFreniere Park to check out their light display, per the suggestion of a sweet friend who lives in New Orleans.
It was awesome, and so reasonably priced! First you drive through in your car, and then you can get out and walk around. Can you spot the big three?
It was so cold!
She asked me to take her picture, sweet thing.
Cute little elves.
We loved visiting New Orleans at Christmastime!
