Well, a few weeks later (about how long it took to recover), here are some pix and shenanigans from our trip down to the Big Easy to see Jack graduate. What an awesome time and a great day for everyone (particularly my parents!)
Thumbs up, like its 1994 :) Outside the Superdome, we are proud of our youngest sib!
Our afternoon entertainment, the "Natchez", took us for a scenic ride (a'la Huck Finn) down the Missi-sloppy, as my dad likes to call it. We McClain's likened this baby to more of a booze cruise than historical river ride, and it was just the ticket for post-graduation celebrations.
Though we did pay attention to some of the scenery.
Because it was New Orleans, and the middle of the afternoon, we decided to do a mini pub crawl back to the hotel from the riverboat. Uncle Bob was kind enough to buy me the greatest toys ever: that weird little lizard on the end of a pencil and a voodoo doll, so I stuck 'em in my dress for safe keeping. Hey, it's New Orleans, you can do whatever you want there, right?
To the right, you'll see Jack on Mother's Day wearing an ever-appropriate t-shirt.
Overall, the trip was great. We had an awesome, sunny, humid great time and ate like it was going out of style! I love that city and am excited to have a sibling tour guide for many more trips in the future.
