Birthday Dinner

How ironic is it that my brother Daniel's birthday is May 27, a week later on June 6 is my birthday and a week after that on June 14 is my sister Katie's birthday. Then I go and marry a boy who's birthday is June 4. So every year around this time my parents take us all out to eat. Now for those of you who know my family know that we LOVE all kinds of cuisine, but one of our favorites would have to be Cajun food. There is nothing better than boiled crawfish straight from New Orleans. However, if your not going to be in Louisiana any time soon there is this great little place called Joe's OK Bayou. That is where we spent our Friday night stuffing ourselves with crawfish, oysters, shrimp, foglegs, gator bites, and lots of great Cajun sides.

Oaks is a little more like his Daddy...this is what he thought about the crawfish. He just stuck to his shrimp.

You're welcome! I love the big photos on your blog too, easier to see your beautiful family! And thanks for introducing me to some great blogs. I still have lots to learn about the camera and the world of blogging. I can't believe I've had my blog almost a year. Happy blogging, and happy birthday!
