Lots of firsts! I am so glad you started to blog and so happy you are living together, snuggling every night. Did Nicholas Cage spoil your evening on Bourbon Street too?

@ Stasha When my husband I first got married we moved into one big ole house with my daughter, my grandmother and then 15 year old brother. That was in 2007. My granny didnt move out until 2010. My first trip to New Orleans was a visit to a hospital where my Aunt-in-law is stationed for the time being. I guess I should elaborate on that.....I have yet to see Bourbon Street. I would love to for Mardi Gras! What did Nick ruin for you?????

I did number 1 4 years ago this month. Hope you are doing okay :)

Your writing is definitely award-worthy :)

Here's to an awesome 2012!

@XLMIC - thank you. I had no idea I would swap PMS symptoms. I now get acne. All along my jaw line every month. I hate it. I was going to delete my blog today. I was feeling blah but I am glad for the comments - they keep me going sometimes. I look forward to 2012.

Oh girl, I did wonder if going to Orleans was family related and I am sorry. The was some drama in May with Nick getting drunk and slapping his wife or something. Thought maybe you dinned in the same restaurant :) here is to a grand New Year!
