New Orleans Weekend

We went to New Orleans this weekend for the Saints/Cowgirls game. We had a great time with our friends even though we really missed our sweetest boy. We rode down to New Orleans with the Buteaus and the Raines. We watched the 5th season of Entourage the whole way there. I have never seen it and it turned out to be a pretty funny show. A little vulgar, but funny.

Here we are in the French Quarter walking to Brennan's for brunch. We thought that this would be a blog-worthy moment.

Here are the 4 girls. Janine (Nana), Erinn, me, and Leigh.

Here I am helping to make the bananas foster. Yummy!

After brunch, we went to walk around the French Quarter. I love looking in all the little shops and seeing all of the art that people make. Here are Neil and Beau next to a street performer.

I was lucky enough to get a free facial at the Monteleon Spa. Last year, Janine booked our 2 facials and Janine went to get hers. Long story short, they decided to bump our appointments for a bigger party and left us facial-less. They did redeem themselves and gave us free ones this year. We got to the hotel and there was a lot of commotion. The Unknown Who Dat was signing autographs in the hotel bar! Neil had to get his autograph and our picture made. The guy was so nice and said that he was "blown away" by all of this attention!

Here is the Louisiana Superdome!

Here we are getting ready for the BIG game.

Inside the dome, getting ready for kick-off. Our seats were up REALLY high but you can't even tell in this picture!

Neil's co-worker, Shawn (a cowgirls fan) had seats right next to us. It was hilarious when they walked up! Everyone around us boo'ed them and got really loud. He was a good sport.

Here we are at the end of the game. We look happy even though the Saints lost. We are still 13-1 instead of 14-eaux! Eaux well, maybe next year!

I think Neil had a good time. Doesn't he look like a cute little kid in a candy store?

Here are the players after the game.

An the sad, sad score. Beaux thinks that this will be good for us. He thinks it make them step back and win the rest of the games!
