The Big Easy

Memorial Day weekend we had our first official "couples trip" with one of our favorite couples. Nic & Jill! We met half way between Houston and Atlanta in none other than the BiG EaSy. We had some amazing food, amazing drinks, listened to some great jazz, and won big at Harrah's. It was an all-around awesome trip, however it went by WAY too fast:( We were so excited to be in New Orleans with eachother. We arrived 5 minutes apart to the hotel. It was perfect!

Our last night on Bourbon:




Dinner at Galatoire's: Our last night we had an amazing dinner at Galatoire's. This dinner was absolutely fantastic! It was delicious and we had wonderful service. And to top it off, when we recieved the bill the waiter told us that my parents surprised us by picking up the tab! They had called ahead to do this for us. Also, they brought us out their famous bread pudding from my parents too. It was so sweet and meant so much to all of us. After dinner, what else? We bar-hopped on Bourbon. Thank you Mom and Dad for the best dinner! We only wish you could have been there. We love you so much!

Out and about our first night:





Our dinner at Mr. B's the first night: We were pumped to dine at this legendary NOLA restaurant. We had high expectations and it was a disappointment. Our waitress was rude and we were very underwhelmed by the food. Oh well, Mr. B's must have reached its peak. I think tourists (like us) tend to get sucked in. It was packed! The most important part is that we still had a blast.

Saturday, just arrived and so happy to be together:
