Well, it’s that time again in Louisiana for King Cakes!! Yes, its Mardi Gras. If you’re not familiar with the King Cake, its a New Orleans tradition that dates back to the eighteenth century. It’s a type of cinnamon sugar French pastry, covered with vanilla icing, and topped with green, purple and yellow sugar crystals. They also come filled with cream cheese, or raspberry, or my favorite, apple. Yummy!

Had an awesome night of fellowship with my wonderful friend Cyndy and her husband Jim. We were celebrating our annual Christmas dinner a little late this year. It’s always a joy getting together with this special couple.
After 29 years of friendship, we’re still going strong. Thank God for good friends!
I gave this ornament as a Christmas present for my son Jordan. He hung it up today and put it on his dresser. This is the kind of Christmas gift that never has to be put up till next year. Also, one of our favorite scriptures.
We had the most beautiful winter sunset on Thursday evening. I went out just to enjoy and marvel at the handiwork of God.
Cole got on the carrousel at the mall and it was hard getting him off. He kept wanting to go round and round. I can’t get enough of this little boy. He is just as sweet as the come.
Caught Kayla looking at herself in the shoe department. She’s was practicing her smile for Grammy. What a doll.
My little Karli acting silly in her big sister’s hat.

Great pictures Susan! That is my husband's favorite scripture as well. Always a good thing to be reminded of this.
What great pics! I love king cake, too. My favorite is Tuesday - such a sucker for sunsets. But the mirror shot is too cute!
Great shots! Your grandchildren are absolutely adorable! And, that King Cake looks amazing! We were in New Orleans a few years ago, but not at the right time for King Cake :-( I keep saying I'm going to have one shipped here, and never do.
