NOLA Baby

Morgan and I headed down to New Orleans last weekend to spend time with my Chi O sisters. We had a great time introducing Morgan to the ways of the Big Easy! Holly and Brad have a beautiful home there that I had not seen yet.

When we pulled up Friday night, Holly and Brad came out to help us unload the car. But we were distracted by a burning smell. And then we saw it. A fire. A HUGE fire. A huge fire right across the street! There was an abandoned church that was engulfed in flames! After a short freak out Morgan and I started to pray. We prayed that nobody was in the church, we prayed for the over 100 fire fighters that responded to the fire, and we prayed that Holly and Brad's home wouldn't be taken down too. That was a legitimate worry because at one point it was raining fire! It was crazy! But all ended well and the NOLA fire department was amazing!

After that smoky start, Anna and Christina joined us on Saturday. So this is what we did all weekend: eat, shop, eat, gossip, eat, sleep and eat! A perfect weekend! I miss my girls so much and I cherish the times we are together. And can I say, Christina and little baby girl Hester look so good! Morgan can't wait to meet her new friend!

The church the night after. What are all the fire fighters looking at?
The saints game of course! Someone set up a tv on the corner!

Morgan missed out and slept through Cafe du Monde! Sad.
