Wedding dress shopping is….
So many words to describe my first day wedding dress shopping. So here goes: Stressful: Going in with barely an idea of what dresses fit best he me stressing a tad. I’m not small but not a plus size either. So I was worried about fit and if I could find a flattering dress that…

Let the parties start!
Our first official party celebrating our engagement happened over the weekend. It was nice having a smaller group function and we enjoyed hanging out with everyone. A bonus was our awesome cake made by our friend, Tricia. And I’m looking forward to more celebrations and enjoying friend time.

Roll Tide!
What a season. Ups and downs, times I thought Bama wouldn’t win, times I thought it’d be close and everything in between. The 2015 football season as a Bama fan was awesome. A special shout out to The Rusty Nail. If you’re in NOLA during the fall, this is the place to be to watch…

Biking the Big Easy
A week ago, I woke up ridiculously early for a Saturday and hopped on my bike to ride through New Orleans for an unusual tour of the city. For the first annual Bike the Big Easy, streets were closed and over 1400 people on bicycles trekked through the Quarter, CBD and down St. Charles in…

When the Saints come marching in..
One of the fun things to do in New Orleans is go to a Saints game. I’ve been fortunate to be able to go to quite a few since moving here and Sunday night’s game was one of the best. The Saints haven’t had the best of times the past few seasons, but the win…
