We had the best weekend in New Orleans. We got to see Jimbo and Audrea and their "new to them" house. Tripp is visiting at his other Grnadmother's house, so we missed the little man! We enjoyed Jared and Laura's most beautiful and sweet wedding. We stayed in one of my favorite hotels in the quarters and ate some of the most fabulous food. We enjoyed a wonderful service at Jimbo's church.

This is outside in the courtyard of our hotel.

Most of the Bowlin crew remember Jared coming up to the lake.

I just had to get a big ole hug from Jared. He is family to us.

Those who knew and loved Jared's Dad knew how much he loved to boil crawfish. He was well known for his crawfish boils. They do a crawfish boil in his honor every year at the church he attended. This grooms cake is made in the likeness of a big ole pot of crawfish boiling! It was awesome.

Well, I got my first tomato off of the vine today! Jim and I cut it, sliced it, salted it and ate it! Yum Yum!!! My fear is that the rest of them will ripen while I am in Arkansas at the lake. I guess my friend that comes and waters them for me will reap the benifits of helping out!

I hope everyone has a good week. I know we have many people on our prayer list as we speak. I am lifting up prayers for many. I am grateful for our little xanga family and all of the prayer warriors out there! Menga2u put it well in her post.

 Jeremy made it through graduation. We are very proud of him. He is now a gratuate of the University of Central Arkansas! Woo Hoo!!!

I will try to post more pictures later. I just had to get this one up!
