Beads, Beignets, and The Big Easy

Kyle and I took a trip down to New Orleans last weekend to celebrate Valentine's Day. When we planned the trip, we completely failed to realize that it would be in the middle of Mardi Gras, and they would be celebrating the Saints win. We just found a really good deal on hotwire, and needed to get away for a few days. We have had a lot going on within our family lately (more to come on that), and it was so nice to relax for a few days. We thoroughly enjoyed just walking around New Orleans, and taking in the culture. This was my first Mardi Gras to attend, and I had a blast catching beads. Just to ease your mind, there was no flashing! We definitely enjoyed the weekend, and ate way too much food. We hit up Cafe Du Monde twice! Just couldn't get enough of those beignets! Enjoy all the pictures!

  4. Sarah, you are too funny! She is staring at his hiney! That is awesome! Notice I took a picture OF him not WITH him! Suzanne, well most of our traveling is done with Crusade, but this was just a fun trip! You should check out hotwire. It is the only reason we travel! Amazing deals on hotels! We did have a blast, and it was much needed!
