Trip to the Bayou

In October, we took a trip to Gonzales, LA to visit Robert and Cori. Cori is a very good friend of mine and she and Robert recently married....in January 2011. In fact, at the wedding, Cori said to Steve and I, "Tag you're it..." They moved to Louisiana where Robert's job was and we decided to take the boys out for a visit. We had a great time...we watched a lot of football....it was a great football weekend for all of us....Vanderbilt (my alma mater) won, LSU (Robert's alma mater) won, and Texas Tech (Steve's alma mater) miraculously pulled off a huge upset and beat OU! It was fun for all of us! We also played some Uno, ate some great food (the boys tried alligator for the first time) and we went on a swamp tour. The highlight of the swamp tour was getting to hold the live baby alligator! Cori had been on two previous tours and was too scared to hold it. However, I think the fact that Nolan who was 6 held it made her brave and she did it for the first time. Logan refused to hold the cute little thing. Happily, we learned this month that Cori and Robert are moving back to Houston! We are so excited to have them back!
