Blogger and I have a love hate relationship right now. I had a post all ready to publish, and poof! the pictures went away. Nice. So, it appears they are ready to load now....we'll see.
Let's go back to July 4th weekend.
Saturday, we saw Cars 2. AC checked out of the movie about 20 minutes into it (as did I), but if you ask her what she thought of the movie, she'll give it a great review!
My dad finished up his time as camp director and headed to Houston to see my mom. They decided to 'swing by' Baton Rouge since Dad hadn't seen Anna Claire in a while, so they came over on Saturday night and stayed through Monday afternoon.
After they headed back to Houston, we went over to the outlet malls for a little holiday shopping :) It was H-O-T, so Brad treated us to frappuccinos at Starbucks and this was the scene from the backseat.....this is the good life!
July 4th night, we went with some friends down to the capitol steps to watch the fireworks! AC and her little friends are at such a fun age right now! They see each other and it's as if they haven't seen each other in ages! Big hugs, squeals, the works!
On Tuesday, Elizabeth drove in from Dallas to spend a week with us! We had so much fun having her here! One night, I went in AC's room to turn off her DVD player and this is what I saw. Apparently, Elizabeth had a little visitor sneak in her bed to watch the movie!
Friday was Cow Appreciation Day at Chick-Fil-A, and we thought we would push family bonding to the max and all dress up in order to recieve a free combo! We went for breakfast and it wasn't very crowded. They said lunch would be insane, so I'm glad we opted for the earlier time!
We ran home after breakfast and quickly changed so that we could head to New Orleans for the day. We at lunch at Joey K's (this is one of the places Guy from Diners, Drive Ins, & Dives visited) - delicious! Then, we hit the Louisiana Children's Museum. Fun times for all!
AC could pedal a stationary bike and the skeleton would pedal his bike. She thought that was pretty funny!
The mini Winn Dixie was a highlight of the museum for Anna Claire. There were several kids playing in the store, and AC jumped right in with the rest of them. First, she shopped.
Then she played cashier...
Then, she organized the produce....
After playing in Winn Dixie, we headed across the way to a restaurant. AC really got into this part -
A fun day, for sure! AC keeps asking to go back, so I see a trip back to the children's museum in our near future!

Hi Emily, Houston has a children's museum (complete with grocery store), too. Something to look forward to, no? Hope everything is going well!
