So, I registered for that half marathon on Tuesday (we purposely waited until the last minute, even though we'd known about it prior to Jay's surgery, so that we could see how Jay was feeling post-surgery and whether his doctor would give him the OK to travel - in the second row, with his foot elevated up between the console for the entire drive) and we quickly planned a fun 2-night trip to Lafayette. We started the weekend with dinner at
Prejean's, ran the
race Saturday morning, grabbed some drive-thru daquiris from
Cupid's (when in Louisiana...) and took the kids to the playground next to campus (at
Girard Park), had another awesome dinner at
Cafe Habana City, showed the kids around
campus and hunted down my graduation brick, then went back to the hotel and started a
movie at 8:22pm while giving the kids sugary juice drinks and large bags of gummy octopuses, which led to a 10:00pm bedtime. For the second night in a row.
And then there was Sunday, but that's another post...

| Oh yeah, and we went shopping at Pack n Paddle while we were in town. Jay decided that he NEEDED a hammock with which to elevate his leg while lounging outside (also good for camping trips, and since it holds a whopping 400 lbs the whole family can snuggle). And Cora scored herself a sparkly pair of Toms. |
