Daniel's First Game of Tackle

Real football starts in 3rd grade in these parts. Yesterday was Daniel's first game. Daniel plays guard on offense and defense end on defense. He made a big tackle on fourth down to prevent a first down, when the game was 14-7. But Benton couldn't score and Haughton went on to win 21-7.

Boudreaux and the Parrot


Boudreaux walks past a pet store in Lafayette. A parrot in the window says to him, "You are REALLY ugly!" Boudreaux is not happy about this, but he goes to work anyway.

On the way home from work Boudreaux passes the pet store again and the bird says, "You are REALLY ugly!" Boudreaux is upset so he goes in to talk to the owner where he threatens all kind of bodily harm if the parrot says it again. The owner tells Boudreaux that he will take care of it.

The next morning Boudreaux wants to see what action the owner took. He goes past the pet store. The parrot looks at him and says, "Hey man." Boudreaux says, "What?" The bird nods his head slightly and says, "You know."

LSU Football


We went to the LSU/Arizona game this past weekend. The tickets were compliments of Robert Bowman. It was the boys first trip to LSU and Tiger Stadium. LSU beat Arizona 45-3. Obviously there was a lot to cheer about.

We stayed at a Bed and Breakfast in Lafayette. Before the game we had a cajun lunch at Mulates in Breaux Bridge.

We had a great idea for new business when we were driving through Lafayette. A new cajun cooking spice from the Valcheaux family.
