New Orleans Weekend!

Team Andersen headed home for a socially PACKED weekend. W e left early Friday morning to catch our flight out of Laguardia. Here is Nola on the bus from the parking garage to the airport. Doesn't she look so happy!
"Good Morning!"

Once we landed we headed to Aunt NeNe's to meet my godson, Dan III. He was too cute but I didn't get a picture because I was too busy holding him. After our visit we headed to Drago's, seafood restaurant, for my birthday lunch. We had a great time!

As soon as we got home there was a knock on the door and it was Tracey & McKenzie. This was their first time meeting. So cute! I can't believe how big Nola looks compared to babies.

"I'll take that!"

Friday night Nanny, Paran & G-Momma came over for pizza and trick or treating...okay no candy but we like to torture Nola in her costume! Here is your sneak peek!

Saturday was my 29th birthday! Happy & sad! I am really upset to see my 20s end..there's no turning back...but I am very happy with my life and what has been accomplished so far. So Saturday I got my nails done with G-Momma...finally...I won't describe what took place at the salon but I will say I felt like I got a new pair of feet and thank heaven for those razor blades.

My birthday lunch was Canes...Mmmmmm!

Then Saturday night Jay & I headed to my friend Wendy's wedding! We had a fun time and got some sneak peeks of the LSU game...we pulled that one out!

Sunday was Dan Michael's christening at St. Dominics. It was really nice but we were all ready to head to Dan & Lenee's for some good fried fish, lots of drinks, & even a dance off....see below.

"This is how we dance!"

Uncle Mikey had a party too so we took turns going back & forth from house to house. This is how Jay tortures his daughter.

"HELP!"

Monday morning we woke up tired but we still had a whole day to play before we flew home. We hung out at Nana & Grumps' for a while before heading in to meet Aunt Mary & the girls at Superior Grill.

She likes to dip!

And double dip!

In case you were thinking the theme of the weekend was eating...you were right..now you see why I gain 5 pounds whenever I go home...no matter how many days we are there.
We have so much fun though!

THANK YOU for such a great weekend...it always goes so fast but Christmas will be here before we know it!
