A Day in Shreveport

We (Katelyn, Anna, my sister Brittany, and I) took a day trip to Shreveport a couple weeks ago to see my Great Aunt Anne who lives in a nursing home there. She hadn't met Anna yet, so we piled in the car, headed east, and stopped just short of the casinos. :) We had a great time, and because we didn't tell my Aunt Anne that we were coming, she was really surprised and excited to see us! We played bingo, and although we were not eligible to win (apparently you have to be a resident at the nursing home to win a quarter), this is always the highlight of Katelyn's time in Shreveport. While playing bingo, we got a sweet surprise! The kitchen staff served up bowls of Blue Bell ice cream (cookies and cream to be exact--my favorite!).
