This weekend Kenton and I headed downtown to spend a couple of nights
to celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary.
How in the word did we go from this...
To this in 6 short years?
In 6 years we have gone from just the 2 of us to 2.75 kids.
In the blink of an eye...
So what did we do during our weekend of just the 2 of us?
Well...
We enjoyed this beautiful view from our hotel room.
On the first night we celebrated over a wonderful dinner at Mr. John's Steakhouse.
Lucky for the hubs I am a pretty cheap date right now.
Keep the water coming and I share his meal with him.
At 7 months pregnant I don't have much room to breathe much less eat anymore!
Here we are after our waiter was kind enough to surprise us with a delicious dessert.
We headed back towards the hotel and stopped into Mannings.
Satch wants to know how do we get a row of recliners
and a tv the size of the wall inside our keeping room?
I was only half listening as I kicked back with my feet up in the recliner next to him.
Who in the heck cares if basketball is on the tv?
Clearly a Lazy-Boy is the key to my heart right now.
With 2 early birds at the house we don't sleep in ever much.
It was kind of nice just to hang out in a hotel bed with fluffy white sheets.
Once again basketball was on the tv.
You would think that I am a fan. :)
On Friday evening we headed over to the House of Blues for Chase McCloud's cd release party.
If you don't know who he is check him out.
Very talented musician and great guy!
Before the show we met up with another couple for dinner at the Foundation Room.
Great food and wonderful company.
Once we made it into the Parish room we met up with other friends for a fun night!
To mark the spot of our nuptials we had to seal the deal with another kiss.
6 years later....
I still do!
Before heading out we stopped into Stanley's for our favorite breakfast
of poached eggs and boudin po boy topped with hollandaise.
Yeah you rite...
The afternoon was so lovely that we took a quite stroll down Freret Street for the street market.
This is our old hood and we stop in whenever we get a chance.
6 year later.
I love this man more than the day that I married him.
He has given me 2.75 kids and a life richer than I ever dreamed of.
I love the beautiful life that we have created together.
Cheers to spending the rest of my forever with you...
