Hi friends,

We spent Christmas in the French Quarter of New Orleans to end a 3 week vacation celebrating my husband’s retirement. 🙂 We had beautiful weather, good food, and some time to relax before we figure out out what comes next…

These are a few of my favorite photos I snapped as we strolled around the French Quarter.

This was in the lobby of our hotel – Bienville House.🎄

I love these old buildings and they look even better all decked out for Christmas! The bubbles from a bubble machine in the middle bottom photo were a fun touch.🙂

A few more photos from around the Quarter…

A huge Christmas tree near the bank of the Mississippi and a bridge spanning the river all lit up for the season.🎄

And my absolute favorite is this shot of St. Louis Cathedral at Jackson Square!🥰

It was a fun trip, but we are glad to be back home! On to 2026 and all the adventures that are in store…🙂
