Baton Rouge, Louisiana

We've been talking about visiting Kathy & Ed in Baton Rouge, Louisiana for a couple of years now.  After Dan & Danielle's wedding, we actually made a plan and decided to finally go.
Yep, a good 13-hour drive. 
First glimpse of the swamp. 
One early morning, I set my alarm and went for a "run" around the LSU lake/campus. Believe it or not at 6:45am it was already 87° with humidity you could slice. Needless to say, I walked and took a few photos along the way. 


All of us went back to LSU's campus in search for Mike the Tiger. 
Checking out the teeth on the statue. 
Mommy & the boys. 

Getting to see Mike up close and very personal as he swam right up to the glass. 

The Dow boys

Fun at the hotel pool. 
This is the first time that Owen swam around the deep (alone).
Kaden practicing his floating. 

Dinner out.  So many great meals with FRESH seafood.

Ben had the opportunity to play golf with Dustin.  

Baton Rouge Country Club

And while Ben was out having fun, I went and visited my own version of heaven...
