Saturday morning we had breakfast at the hotel with Vicky. Her and Steve shared so many wonderful stories about when they were growing up. Her parents were very dear to Steve and it was wonderful to hear about them. We had a great time with Vicky and since we don't get to see her often it was great to sit and chat for a while.
Brent and Julie's wedding was at 1:00 on Saturday. It was at a gorgeous plantation in Baton Rouge called White Oak Plantation. The ceremony was in a small room with a balcony. It was a very sweet, intimate ceremony. The reception was then held in a ballroom on the plantation. We had fun at the reception watching every one dance.
Right after the wedding we headed to New Orleans. We checked into the hotel and changed out of our dress clothes. Then we started walking down Bourbon Street. Wow, what an experience! It actually wasn't as bad as I was expecting. Mardis Gras wasn't it full swing yet, so it wasn't as wild as I thought it would be. We stopped at a few shops and saw some neat street performers. We saw two guys covered in silver paint. They looked like tin men!
We finally made it to Pat O'Brien's. We had a blast there and stayed for quite some time and had a few too many Hurricanes! It was such a fun night and I am so glad we got to spend it with Steve and Nancy. Here are some pictures from Pat O'Brien's.
