HOME SWEET HOME AFTER MARDI GRAS

We're back from Chicago!  Happy (belated) Mardi Gras to everyone!  J and I had a fantastic trip to Illinois and I'm excited to post pictures from our vacation.  Things have been busy busy since we've returned to NOLA so I probably won't get around to it until this weekend.  In the meantime, I thought I'd share some Mardi Gras pictures I grabbed from http://www.nola.com/.  For those who missed all the carnival action like me and J, here's a quick recap...

By the way, J and I saw Will Ferrell in person in the New Orleans airport last Thursday.  Everyone in the airport was going crazy!!!!!  Girls were crying and screaming "I love you!"  I took a picture with J's iPhone but everyone was in motion and I was a few feet away so the quality isn't great.  Here it is anyway...

I will say that I have never in my life found Will Ferrell attractive.  Funny?  Absolutely!  Sexy?  Not so much.  After seeing him in person, my decision swayed a bit.  He is much better looking in person than on the screen.  6'3... nice style... nice build...  I'll stop there.  Don't want to worry J ;)
