Let the Good Times Roll in LA

Yep, we spent our weekend in Louisiana once again...we just can't stay away :)
L'auberge Du Lac Casino and Hotel in Lake Charles, LA!
Can you tell we love that place?! My mom's 60th Birthday is in a few days, so we thought a weekend trip was just what we needed! Every time we go to LA, we tell ourselves that if we lived there, we'd each double our weight because of the FOOD! Ahhh that food is THE best food ever and eventhough we were in Lake Charles, LA and not our favorite place, New Orleans...the food is still AMAZING and we did our fair share of eating and swimming...the lazy river was so much fun, the boys LOVED it and so did we.
Very relaxing and we took advantage of it and went swimming A LOT while we were there.



Our Happpy Family :)


Ahhh, we're eating at our most favorite restaurant- Steamboat Bills! THE best shrimp, catfish and crawfish you can find! It's AMAZING and we eat there every, single time we go!
It's an addiction!








Jacob's "Casino" While Mommy and Daddy spent both nights at the casino(no, we didn't win!!), this is where Jacob spent most of his day if we weren't swimming...in what he called "his casino"...
the arcade at the hotel! FUN!!!!



And the rest of the pictures are simply silly pictures taken throughout the weekend :)
ENJOY!!






























One day I really think me, my husband, the boys and my mom will pick up and move to some part of Louisiana. We love it there, my mom's family lives in New Orleans and my dad's family lives in Lake Charles, so we'd definately have family nearby no matter where we'd choose!
It's a nice thought....hmmmm, not now but maybe one day??!

Hope you all had a great weekend too :)

Looks like a blast. I hope you had a lot of ice cold beers, girl. Truth be told it's one of my faves too, nothing beats it on a hot hot day in a cold cold glass.

Lots of yummy love,

Thank you for your nice comment today! I don't think I will be able to do another marathon because of my knees. If I have surgery then maybe I will. It was so amazing! Hope you are having fun!

Great pics! We love LA too. I'm not a big fan of the Casinos. I've only been once, but I guess I'm such a cheap-o I didn't like it! I love the food though!!! YUM!
