Trip to Lafayette & Mardi Gras!!!!!

Before we got the unexpected news about Linda, we packed up and headed to Lafayette to see our guys. The band was recording their new record in Maurice so we went to check out the property and the studio. It was just beautiful, the perfect example of south Louisiana. We had a great time hanging out there. We ate some cajun food and then went to Mardi Gras parades on Saturday and caught some beads. Maddie LOVED IT! Just check out the cute pictures!

Daddy decided to help Maddie crawl by showing her. Good Job Daddy!

Uncle Randy and Uncle Geoff listening to the new cuts of music.

After the studio we went to Prejeans to eat dinner. We got brave and gave Maddie a lemon to suck on and surprisingly she loved it! She would suck on it and then make this cute face with her lips sealed tightly. She would look up at Les and grin. We were histarical!

We all decided to get our faces painted for the Mardi Gras parades. It was spontaneous and fun!

The whole gang with their faces painted... crazy cajuns!

Check us out.....we look pretty funny!

Happy Mardi Gras from the whole family!
