This is Egidio.
It was an honor and privilege to have him as a guest in our home last week. We met Egidio while we were on our mission trip to Costa Rica. He was our bus driver. We got to know him really well on our trip, and were so excited when he decided to come to the United States for a visit. Egidio is a Godly man, with an amazing testimony, and we made some wonderful memories while he was here.
Since we live just across Lake Pontchartrain, a New Orleans trip is always necessary when guests come to visit. We decided to take the street cars as an extra treat for the kids and Egidio. You couldn't wipe the smile off of Landry's face the entire time :)
We got off at Canal Street and made our way to the beloved French Quarter
Here is Egidio looking all touristy
We enjoyed a lunch at Bubba Gump's.....
.....visited the gorgeous St. Louis Cathedral...
...Did a 2 second photo-shoot with my little beauty...
....and then chowed down on Beignets from Cafe Du Monde, an essential element of every trip New Orleans!
Maybe Cory got a little too carried away? LOL
The kiddos were quite impressed by the musicians
And the ride back was almost as much as fun as the ride there...
...just ask Eli. LOL
And just to brag on my kids a little, (because I am their mommy and I can) they were perfect angels the whole day. I was so proud of them!
