new orleans

 back at the beginning of march we took an over night trip to new orleans for our interview to get my green card. we were only there for less than 24hrs., but it was fun.

 

here is Lilyanna at suppertime. she thought it was funny to put a bite between her teeth and pretend it was stuck. she is such a jokester! always trying to get a laugh out of us.

 we walked around the French quarter in the evening. Lilyanna thought she wanted a closer look at the horse, but once teddy lifted her closer she was scared of it!

we just had to stop and have some famous beignets (donuts covered in powdered sugar) at café du monde. yummy! (even for me, and I don't like donuts!)





 the day of the interview we had to go to the aquarium. Lilyanna loved it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 they even had animals to crawl on!

 

 

new Orleans is a fun place to go. we had such a short time there, but it was enjoyable. I should have taken more pictures of the buildings. the architecture and detail on the buildings is beautiful. there were so many beautiful homes. hopefully we make an excuse to go back sometime soon!
