Our Easter weekend started off with a trip to the zoo, just me and my girls. The
weather could not have been more perfect: one of those glorious Louisiana spring days
that make you want to stay outside forever and ever. We walked around and looked at all
our favorite animals, rode the train and visited with the Easter bunny. After a trip to the
mall to pick up new spring sandals, we headed to my aunt's house for our family's
annual Good Friday crawfish boil. After setting out the traps and collecting crawfish in
the bayou next to our house, my uncles and cousins set to work boiling our favorite
seafood. The little ones climbed trees while the grown-ups talked and watched the
sunset. We ate and ate and then ate some more, talking long into the night while the
cousins all fell asleep together on the living room floor. It was a wonderful day and I went
to sleep so happy. Tired, but full and happy.
