Southern Louisiana

This week I drove down to Slidell, Louisiana to visit my mother’s side of the family.  Slidell is just across Lake Pontchartrain from New Orleans (roughly 25-35 mins away from New Orleans).  It was nice to see my family.  It had been around three years since the last time I had saw them.  We did a lot of sight-seeing.  Honestly though, the best part was just getting to chat with all them.  Also, it was great to escape the crazy weather Texas has been having.  My Aunt told me a lot of stories about my mother, which was wonderful.  Today is the five year anniversary of her passing, so it felt nice to feel more connected with her.  I even got to see her high school.  Well here are some photos from the trip.
(I still haven’t quite gotten the hang of photography in overcast weather.  I sure would like to take a photography class).

Utah, you’ve stolen my heart yet again. Last time it was Moab, this time it’s mountains and a wedding, and at this point I’m just emotionally committed to this entire state. So grateful to celebrate the beautiful wedding of two dear friends as they start their next chapter together. 💛

We are all going to politely ignore my tulip who was out of water for a while (I was ensured that it would perk up before long!), but another floral arrangement in the books!! Perfect little start to my Birthday 🌸
