Friday Family Fun Day

So Friday was my first day off since June 3 and we took off to New Orleans, just the 3 of us.  We wanted to spend the day with Em before school started, kind of celebrate my birthday, but mostly just celebrate the summer being over and being together.  We took Emerson to the New Orleans Children's Museum when she was 3 and have not been back since. It was all new to her.

 Of course the Grocery Store was one of her favorite parts of the Museum.  We got such a kick out of what the kids were putting in their baskets.  Very telling I think.  Emerson had fresh flowers, pastries and breads, boiled crabs and some veggies.  Denny checked her out.


 Fulfilling her destiny maybe?
 As much time as we spend in New Orleans, we have never taken Em to ride the Trolley Car until now. 

 Kids Kafe' in the Children's Museum was her favorite part.  We sat, as did all the other parents, grandparents and siblings, while the kids take our orders, pretend cook, serve and clean up after us.  Not thinking the Food Service Industry is going to be for her...

 Emerson made friends with some other kids and they preformed Little Red Riding Hood on stage.  All she did was "Direct" them what to do.
