New Orleans Mini Vacay Part 2

If you missed part 1 of our trip to New Orleans, read HERE.   We went to lunch on Bourbon (my mind slips me and I can’t remember the name of the place). We had the pleasure of being seated on the balcony which was perfect for people watching. If you haven’t people watched on Bourbon, you must! Walking through Jackson Square is always a

New Orleans Mini Vacation Part 1

New Orleans Mini Vacation Part 1

This weekend Hubs and I snuck away to my favorite city, with my Blogger BFF Kristen and her new husband Chris, for a little R & R. We stayed in the St. James Hotel which was absolutely perfect, despite knowing it was haunted. It was built in 1833 and it used to be a civil war hospital and legend has it that it’s haunted by

Second Anniversary

Second Anniversary

Last night we celebrated our second wedding anniversary. We exchanged cards and dined at our favorite Japanese restaurant. We tried taking our annual photo before dinner but the sun was casting horrible shadows so we decided to wait until dust…well we were a little later than dust but we are happy with the photograph. And a few outtakes. As far as gifts, we’ve decided to

Valentine’s Day 2013

Valentine’s Day 2013

Our Valentine’s Day was perfect. A few days before, my husband was granted his green card. We are so glad that whole process was over. Our marriage verification interview wasn’t as scary as I thought it would be. THANK GOD! We basically felt that they had made up their mind before we even walked in. I guess we submitted enough ” evidence ” during the

Burn’s Supper 2013

Burn’s Supper 2013

This weekend we attended a Burn’s supper to celebrate the birthday of the Scottish poet Robert Burns.  Burns really had a way with his words and that’s why we still celebrate him today.  One of my first gifts from Hubs (BF at the time) was a stone with Burns poetry so celebrating good ol’ Robbie Burns really holds a special place in my heart.  Here
