🤠✨ The CFMA may be all about Cajun French Music, but who doesn’t love Dolly?!

Members of the Cajun French Music Association Bayou Cajuns Chapter wanted to show some love for the Queen of Country Music by strappin’ on their sparkly duds and bringing a little Dolly sparkle to the bayou! 💖

Because around here, we may say “Laissez les bons temps rouler,” but Dolly says “9 to 5”—and we’re happy to celebrate both! 🎶🤠✨

Long live the Queen! 💕
