With my parent's arrival, Ryan and I took the opportunity to enjoy a couple date nights, one traditional, and one not so traditional. Our non traditional date night involved us completing our third race in what I earlier posted as the Crescent City Challenge. This race was the Crescent City Bridge Run, a 4 mile race, starting on the West Bank, crossing the Mississippi River on the Crescent Connection Bridge, and finishing on the East Bank.

Ryan took the opportunity to learn from Papa Pagels about changing the oil in his Jeep. Cajun is all set with fresh, clean oil, and new oil filter. Mom and I were smart and stayed out of the garage during the process, we decided to bake them chocolate chip cookies to enjoy post oil change.
And, we thought these pictures were capturing the final snuggles before my parents departed. Grandma and Grandpa enjoyed spending time with Henry. Ryan and I enjoyed having them visit. Macy was also happy to have her best friend visit, she and Dad were inseparable.
As I mentioned at the start of this post, expect the unexpected, and take every opportunity that comes your way. The next post will explain why we thought they were final snuggles...
