Leah Boudreaux of Houma had a reason to smile after she claimed a $10,000 Powerball prize at the Lottery's New Orleans office.

"I'm just so happy that I won," shared Boudreaux.  "I will put it to good use."

Boudreaux's ticket matched four of the five white ball numbers drawn and the red Powerball number to win $10,000. The winning numbers for the June 5 Powerball drawing were 18-34-40-48-59 and the Powerball number was 25.

Boudreaux, age 52, purchased her winning ticket from Nocko's Inc. on Grand Caillou Road in Houma.  She plans to use her winnings to pay bills.
