A trip to Baton Rouge!

This past weekend we went to visit Daphne in Baton Rouge. We love going to see her and were excited to see her new house! The last time we went she had gotten a dog, and the kids had a difficult time as they are very scared of dogs. I prayed and prayed that they would be able to manage better this time, and to my relief, they did much better!

It took us almost 6 hours to get there as there was an accident that closed the roads, but when we got there, we hung out, went for a walk, and watched the movie "Wonder" with the kids.
The next morning, we went to a new children's museum, called "Knock Knock."
The kids had a good time. Cavin was excited to fish!
Our experienced shopper!
Ella will find art, wherever she is!
We found Daphne's turtle!
This monkey puzzle was fun to do! 
Channing was cooking for Daphne!
Deacon is always on the move!
We had a fun time, and Channing came home and wouldn't leave poor Cortex alone. She was really brave and warmed up to him. We had hamburgers and made homemade icecream which was great.
We also went to the observatory in the evening which was a little anticlimactic!
Deacon enjoyed looking at the planets.

We got to go outside and look through a telescope to see a star, but then it got too overcast.
We also practiced using my TYME iron on our hair ;) If only it wasn't so humid!
The crew with Cortex. I'm glad the kids did better and we were able to co-exist in the same room together. It made for a much more pleasant visit. Cavin's allergies were bothering him more toward the end, and sadly there isn't much we can do about that, but we are glad we got to make a visit.
