We spent the weekend in New Orleans visiting my daughter Abby and son-in-law Joe. Abby and Joe were married last September, and this was the first time that I've seen her since her wedding day. Since then, they have done extensive renovations to their house, and Abby has started a new job, having graduated from Tulane law school last spring. It has been a big year for both of them.
The renovations to their house turned out so well. It's so New Orleans! They know that the house is more than 100 years old, but are unable to give an exact year as the documentation was lost in an historic New Orleans fire. Here's a shot of the antique chandelier that she found.
And I love how she hung these paintings. The two on the bottom right and the one on the bottom left are Abby originals.
While in New Orleans we attended the Cajun-Zydeco festival and ate at several wonderful restaurants.
Here's Abby eating some crawfish:
And Abby and Joe under one of New Orleans' gorgeous live oak trees.
On Sunday Abby and I got pedicures while the boys played golf at the Audubon Park golf course. It was a really fun and relaxing weekend. I miss her already!
Aw! I miss you too!
