We flew to New Orleans on my birthday and spent two weeks there. Here are some of the highlights.Picked out a Christmas Tree
This tree was too small.
And this tree had too few branches.
But this one was just right. We just had to get it tied to the car well enough to make it down the block.
Then Damien had to get it in the house.
Celebrate my 24th birthday!
I got some fabulous shoes...
had Thai food for dinner...
homemade chocolate cake with chocolate frosting for dessert!
Afterward we decorate the Christmas tree
while Damien fell asleep on the couch because he was sick.
Christmas Eve
The family came over for the gift exchange.
We got to open one gift before bed. Rita and Tricia got me raccoon mittens. They are nice and warm but still freak me out a bit if I actually look at them! (I'm terrified of raccoons after having a few encounters with them.)
Christmas Day
We had a great Christmas despite Damien's expressions in these first two pictures.
My husband likes to wear Indian dresses to dance around in. Bet you never knew that!
Dinner with the family. You have to be young and hot to sit at this table.
A few days later
We gave the Zellers a brief tour of NOLA.
New Year's EveDinner with our friends and...
