If you have noticed that I have been MIA for the past few days it's because I have been in Lake Charles, Louisiana! We decided to take a trip to the L'Auberge du Lac Resort and Casino for my dad's birthday! We left this past Monday morning and came back today! Lake Charles is about three hours away from where we live so it wasn't too bad of a drive! I was happy that my friend Kristan was able to come with us too!
The Sunday before we left we took my dad out to Outback for his birthday! He hates when the servers sing to him! : )
Don't you love the shirt I bought him?!
Kristan and I leaving for Louisiana
Have y'all ever heard of Cut N Shoot, TX? It's a small town that we have to drive through on our way to Louisiana. Don't ya love the name of it? The city of Cut N Shoot has it's own city hall, reception hall, and souvenir shop! I think I may want to have my wedding reception at the reception hall in Cut N Shoot! Ha, totally kidding!
POKER HANDS!
When we got to Lake Charles we stopped and ate lunch at this place! They have the best seafood! I ordered fried crawfish tails!
We finally made it to the hotel Monday afternoon!
After we got checked in we headed down to the pool!
I love the pool area at L'Auberge! They have a swim up bar and a lazy river!
Kristan and I cooling off in the pool!
And...yes we had to watch The Bachelorette while getting ready Monday night, ha! We have no life! What did y'all think? I think Frank is a jerk and does not know what he wants! Hope she picks Chris!
Kristan and I before heading out to the Casino! We were pretending like we were twins all week since our names sound alike and since we are both under 5 feet tall!
Kristan curled my hair....what do ya think?!
Me, my mom, and my TWIN!
My dad won big on the craps table while we were watching The Bachelorette and getting ready! I was jealous! Here he is counting his money!
My yummy dice shaped dessert! Isn't it cute?!
I didn't take pictures of our second night at the casino - are you shocked? I had SO much fun even though I didn't win! Kristan's dad came last night to gamble with us for a bit.....he works close by to where we were staying! We had a blast on the craps table! It's so much fun when you are playing with people you know!
I can't wait till we go back again! : ) I have to take my EC - 6th grade content exam tomorrow morning to become a certified teacher! Pray that I pass!
I noticed that I have a few new followers....thanks for stopping by my blog! Can't wait to visit your blogs! Have a great night!

Haha, I'm cracking up at the shirt you go your dad!
I'm glad you had a great time gambling :).
Never heard of that town before. Sounds pretty cute though. Good Luck on your test. Glad you had fun in Louisiana.
Good luck on the test! When I was in College Station for a prospective student visit in 2001, there was another student who sat next to me that was from the town, and apparently they have quite the high school rivalry with a nearby town. FYI, if you look more toward Austin, there's a town named Cement, TX
I love the shirt! When I attended San Diego State I bought my dad and coffee mug that said my daughter and my money go to San Diego State. What a fun trip y'all had to the Casino! Good luck on your test I am sure you will rock it!
Oh wow, I loved all the pictures. It definitely looks like a great time. I'll have to talk my boyfriend into taking a road trip one day. Lol. Cut & Shoot, that was too funny. You're welcome for the last comment by the way, thank you as well.
Ps: Good luck on your test.
I was there the same time you were! Our room overlooked the pool! If I would have seen ya I so would have said hi!!! :)
Can you believe what happened with Frank on The Bachelorette?! I can't decide who I want her to pick...I really like Chris and Roberto!
Love Cut N Shoot. Did you know that Cut N Shoot has the largest Harley Davidson motorcycle group? Supposedly, the bikers like for their jackets to say they are part of that group. Wonder why, HA??!!!
Love your dads shirt.
Cute hair too.
Looks like fun! Cute pics!:)
I just got caught up on hulu with the bachlorette and Frank. Ugh. I have no words. I can't believe he did that! but on the other hand, at least he was honest and didn't drag it on...
PS.All of your dresses are super cute!
Looks like y'all had a great time! & I adore those pink sunglasses!!!
