New Orleans Trip

So back at the beginning of October Chris and I headed down to New Orleans to go visit my brother Jake and his wife Angie. They moved there the end of July because Jake started law school. The main reason we went down was because they were going to be sealed in the temple and we wanted to go and support them. My mom and sister Jenni were also able to fly down and enjoy the trip with us. Here are just a some pictures we took of the trip...we had a blast! The weather was awesome, kinda humid, but not bad. The atmosphere down there is so lively and fun! So much to do, and fun shopping and food! Southern food is so so yummy! Of course New Orleans is famous for Mardi Gras so their are also CRAZY/DIRTY people there as well :)

We are eating gator! Yes it was gross..Chris liked it though. Also we walked the famous Bourbon Street...pretty fun! Although we had to shut our eyes a few times haha:)

Jake and Angie were sealed in the Baton Rouge Temple, it was so special and I am so glad Chris and I were able to be there for them. Angie looked really pretty coming out in her wedding dress, and Jake looked like a stud. The temple was really pretty but super tiny. There was a stake center right next to the temple and it was bigger!








Our last day that we were there we went to Lake Ponchatrain. To get to the beach we went to we had to cross a bridge over the lake that was about 20 miles long. It was actually kinda nerve racking, seriously when we crossed it, it looked like we were surrounded by the ocean. We enjoyed gettin some sun and playin around in the sand and water. We had such a fun time down in NO. We are sad Jake and Ang are living so far away now, but Chris and I will have a fun time being able to travel down there and visit every so often! We highly recommend visiting this place, it'll be a fun trip we will always remember!
