New Orleans

Josh and I just got back from a fabulous weekend in NOLA! I think we will be making a yearly stop there for sure!

Wooo wee. So much fun! Almost too much fun! Nahh, you can never have too much fun! :)

We basically did a whole lot of eating, a whole lot of people watching and making fun of people, a whole lot of shopping and a whole lot of walking!

I was just glad to have my husband all to myself!DSC_0365

You really can’t go wrong in picking a restaurant in New Orleans. We ate at Deanie’s, The Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., Cafe Fleur-De-Lis(twice), La Bayou…I think that’s about it! Besides eating beignets in the middle of the night at Cafe du Monde! They weren’t that great…they were ok, but I would rather just have a Krispy Kreme doughnut!

We took a swamp tour on Saturday. We went with Cajun Encounters. They were pretty much awesome! We saw a TON of alligators which is odd for this time of year! Our guide was even able to lure a gator to the boat and he caught him with his bare hands. eekk.DSC_0382Wash up from Katrina… DSC_0383

And now for some crappy phone pics!

I think I could have sat here all night and people watched! Except I had to pee…and I’m funny about WHERE I pee!

Hubs decided to wear his ROLL TIDE shirt out one night! It was fun, he got some “Roll Tide’s” :)

Mmm. I could live off of this bread pudding! But, it’s back to the diet today!!

I think that about sums up our trip! Oh, I couldn’t get over the amount of people with their KIDS on Bourbon Street! I mean come on people!!!! There were things I didn’t want my husband to see, let alone my children!!!! Geeze.
