Lasserre Family Tree
There is no better way to spend a Memorial Day weekend than at a Lasserre Family Reunion in the great state of Louisiana. Crawfish and crab boils, a swamp tour, extreme humidity, men in tanktops, and even an adult slip and slide were all to be had this glorious event. As many of you know, Rachel and I are changing our last name to Lasserre which is my grandparents name and has spanned many generations. Unfortunately due to spelling changes through the years and other circumstances the name was going to die out so Rachel and I decided to step up and represent.
The reunion was held in a little town outside of New Orleans where a good bit of our family lives called Vacherie. Rachel and I were lucky enough to stay with my parents in a cozy bed and breakfast located behind a sugar cane field and in front of a field that was home to cows, horses, chickens, and a friendly cat who always seemed to be enjoying himself with the other animals. The kind owner of the B&B graced our freezer with Toaster Strudels (waaay better than PopTarts IMO) which was a throwback to elementary school I wasn't expecting but really enjoyed and helped keep our energy up in the 90+ degree heat. Here are a few pictures from the reunion and New Orleans (which we stopped by the night before on the way to Vacherie) that Rachel took on her phone that we thought were cool. We will post the pictures that we took on our camera when we get the film back! Hope you enjoy these and check back soon!
