For Spring break 2011 we took a trip to New Orleans for the St. Patrick's Day Parade, the French quarter, and other adventures. I am sure glad that my van is a good long distance family car...the TV and the ability to move around and such makes it a lot better. Also, daddy is able to get his "long drive" position on. :o)

Our first stop in NO was New Orleans' Hamburger and Seafood....which was not only good froom but was also Schuyler's first job when he was 15.

While we were in NO, it was also Kathleen's birthday so we kept Trevor at our hotel for the night while Anthony and Kathleen went out on the town for a grown up dinner.

We had a pizza party.

Then sent the big kids to the study/living room area, behind those double doors to watch a movie and have popcorn while, we spent time with Hayden and then watch a movie of our own.

The next morning we were off to the aquarium.
