Cajun Pride Swamp Tours

Wow! Sorry I've been away for so long! :) Life has been great down here in the bayou's. :) I'm lovin' it! I've been going out to sell with Garrett a bit lately and it has been so much fun. He is so cute to watch as he's giving a demo. :) He's sweet too because he tells me I'm his lucky charm. :) He even has me do a little bit of the talking. :) Im sure he does it so much better than I do but it's still fun to talk to these people and to be talking to them about such a great product is even better!

I'm also learning a lot about cooking and it gets easier for me every day! :) I'm going to add a label on here for any recipies I find. Right now my best friend is my crock pot! :) Whoever invented that little guy is awesome! :)

I also got to go and visit my cute nephews in Florida for a few days. I'll post some pics of them so you can see how ADORABLE they all are! I loved spending time with them! They are a really neat family and it was good to be able to relax with them and spend time getting to know them better. :)

Mason dumped a bunch of sand on Russel's head... :) 

Apparently Russell didn't mind too much. :)


The boys were making a sandcastle. Gavin was running to get some more wet sand. Aren't they all so adorable?!


That's Mason and Russell putting more sand in the bucket. Russell was using the shovel earlier but every time he lifted the shovel all of the sand fell off before he could get it to the bucket. I think he finally gave up on it and decided just to use his hands. :) So cute!

Gavin bringing more water to the castle and Russell having the time of his life! :)


While we've been down here we've gotten to do some fun things too. Yesterday we all went on a swamp tour and looked at the alligators! :) It was sooo cool! I took some pictures with my cell phone (both of our camera's just happened to be dead... frustrating!) :) But the phones did a pretty good job capturing a few things close up. :)

These Gators are some of the smaller, younger ones. We saw some that were 12 feet long!

He was feeding them raw chicken. ...And marshmallows. haha

My husband is so CUTE!
 
This alligator is three years old! I guess they grow really slowly but they live for about 150 years!

 We also saw a bunch of raccoons and birds and snakes and lizards! :) And the guy that gave us our tour was awesome and told us a ton of interesting facts about the place. He actually grew up on a swamp and still lives there now.

We also saw a one year old gator but he didn't pass that one around. (Darn it!) :) I would have loved to have held it! :)

I think he said that you can find them on youtube if you look up cajun swamp tours. :) I think you get to see the raccoons and everything. :)

Tonight we are going out to dinner as a team so I'd better get ready! :)

Till next time!
