Audrey was a little upset because they just put her hair in braids. She did however have a lot of gold glitter in her hair.
Sarah, Hannah and Macy chat it up with the rest of the girls.
Afterwards we went shopping and out to eat.
Hannah enjoyed her food. You can dress up a little girl and make her look like a big girl, but that little girl will always come out.
He didn't like the cast but seemed to be getting along ok with it. He had it on for 3 weeks and got it off on a Tuesday. So that Saturday we had a big bon fire and all the kids played. Later that night I looked for Audrey and she had put herself to bed. The next morning she came in and told me her foot hurt when she walked. I asked her what happened and she said one of the older boys fell on her and she heard a crack. I told her she was fine. Later we were outside and I saw her ankle was bruised and swollen. I just figured it was sprained since she was walking on it. The next morning on the way to school it was still swollen so I told her I would take her to the pediatrician. I figured she needed an ace bandage. The Dr. to x-rays came back and said that Audrey's growth plate was fractured and I needed to go to the orthopedic surgeon. So we went and she got a cast on. 
Yes, she picked out the barbie pink cast. She had friends sign it.
Daddy met Cindy and became quite fond of her. I don't think he will ever admit it though. Later that night we went to dinner and enjoyed wonderful southern food.
AUDUBON ZOO
Saturday we went to the Audubon Zoo. As usual it was a great experience. I have been going since I was a little girl and I always enjoy myself and love looking at the animals. Now I get to look at my children with them.
I think Will took this picture he decided to get behind the camera instead of in front of the camera.
We also enjoyed petting the animals.
Audrey was amazed that elephants have hair on their backs.
The kids petted an alligator.
Daddy and Cindy, aka. Grandpa and Nana, sat down for a rest.
A zoo visit would never be the same without seeing the SWAMP MONSTER. Will use to get so scared when we would walk by that we would get on the other side against the wall and scooch fast. He then would start to sob.
They had a great time dying the eggs.
I was so glad they did not wake up to early. I think we got up around 6:30. Here they are showing off their webkinz. After hunting for eggs and checking out the baskets and all the goodies, we got ready and went to the Quarter's.
We then went to Cafe De Monde for some beignets. Nana and Audrey had a good time talking.
Another parade began shortly after we finished eating a couple of beignets. Once again a lot of beads, candy and stuffed animals.
Will and Audrey pose with one of the stuffed animals.
The Loving couple My man and myself.
New Orleans always dresses up for every occasion even the animals.
And of course, the music of New Orleans. This guy was really good. We stood and listened to him for a while. I know Mark could have stayed all night.
We then went to Muriel's for Brunch. We went upstairs and waited. While waiting Will enjoyed the decor. And Audrey decided to take over the camera.
Audrey put me in this pose.
I think every waiting area should be this cozy. Audrey looks to me like a ghost. It fits in with the theme of New Orleans.
She took a great shot here. My two boys.
My nieces and great niece and Daddy. 
After the meal we decided to go to the Gay Easter Parade.
It was my favorite parade. The kids did not realize that these were men dressed in drag.
Daddy went with Stacy and Liz and got a cigar.
Yes, this is Mr. Louisiana Leather. I am not sure if he is 2007 or 2008. This parade was fun and beautiful. One of the people gave Audrey a stuffed bear that is bigger than her. She absolutely loves it.
And of course our queen, my sister Liz. She waves to the Quarter as we are about to leave. This was a great day. This has been one of my favorite Easters. The kids really enjoyed it as well. The food was good, the scenery was good, and family was priceless. I wouldn't give them up for anything. 
We went to the zoo with Joseph, Sarah and Aunt Janie. Mark had to go back to Mississippi to work. So it was just Janie, the kids and me. 
Will is hanging around the zoo.
Audrey feeds a llama. We had a great few days. It was the kids spring break. Will had an asthma attack but Uncle George was there to fix him. We also ate crawfish and a lot of other good food. 
Mark fixed the go cart. Will loves it!!
Audrey and her friends sang and danced to Mister Sun!
Audrey sang Rubber Ducky. As usual she brought down the house.
Will played a piano solo. I had to take his splint off so he could play. Then I would put it back on.
His friends are ready for the action.
His teacher got the Queen of Love and Beauty banner from our knight.
Will poses with our knight. I was so glad we got a cute knight. The kids had so much fun. And so did the moms and dads. 
I took a lot of pictures. Here is one of them. I love taking pictures of them. Especially since I don't know what I get until I download them.
I love these red azaleas!!!
