Family visit and a Louisiana swamp tour

We went home to Louisiana to visit family recently and guess what??? It was ridiculously suffocatingly humid and hot there so Papaw decided to break out the inflatable pool and grab a hose to cool the kiddos down.  Libby is the only girl out of all of her cousins but as you can see, she runs the show:

Attacking the boys 

Better run for cover!

"What hose?"

So we moved from Shreveport down to the swamps of Breaux Bridge.

The lillies were the size of a small umbrella.

Again it was SUPER hot since the only tour time left open was mid day and Libby had had enough.  

I love my home state and I still think it's one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.
