Our week in Louisiana

Hi everyone!
Last week we were very fortunate to go and visit out friends who recently moved to St. Francisville on route to my cousin Aubrey's wedding (pictures and videos from wedding to follow). We had a wonderful time at Ross and Stephanie's (or Nini as Max calls her) house. They live outside of town a ways close to a lake and nature was abundant (much to Stephanie's chagrin!), but we were in heaven. On Thursday we poked around town with Ross and he took us to look at some of the beautiful plantations and grounds that still exist in the area. My favorite was The Myrtles, aka America's most haunted house! I posted a few pics from there, look close for spirits in the background! :) That night we went into Baton Rouge for dinner and outside of the restaurant there was a live band playing. Max loved it! "Drums! Drums!" He tells us that when he wants to watch this video clip of himself. You'll notice that in the next few video clips I post he is dancing to music. Apparently music just moves his little body!








The statue in front of The Myrtles. All of the statues look really old, but it is hard to believe they are authentic when you pass a HUGE statuary on your way to the plantation!







Angels!




These pics were taken across a little wooden bridge behind the house. We just now, and I mean just now, watched a show on the Myrtles and apparently a lot of paranormal activity has been documented on the bridge. Yikes!






















Lunch at the Magnolia with the LSU hog. Apparently he travels all over town.

And finally, the first of several dancing baby videos!
