Our trip to New Orleans didn't go as planned with a hurricane threatening our adventure and ended up cutting it short. Meghan and her now husband had to have an impromptu wedding at the dinner rehearsal because the city was shutting down the next day with a curfew at 7 p.m. Everything she had planned had been cancelled. It was so sad, but they got through it and even became a news story on Sunday! We drove practically all day Friday to get there for the rehearsal and ended up leaving the next day around noon. So we didn't even stay for 24 hours. We didn't want to get stuck there with the hurricane and didn't even want to stay the extra night because nothing would have been open. The craziest part was the hurricane didn't even TOUCH New Orleans. All that cancellation for nothing. I felt so bad for Meghan.
Craig and I still dressed in our 50's outfits since we were prepared. I wanted to still make her night special. And we did have a good time still.
We got back early so we took Nana and Papa to our church.
Lots of play time in our amazing play room!
The next day we went to the State Fair. It was a hot hot day and Nana decided it would have been better for her to stay behind. Not sure she could have handled the heat. We did see some fun stuff and eat fried foods!
And yes Micah's dad got him a poop hat. Don't ask me why...
Fast forward to a few days later when it was nice and cool outside. We headed to the park and then got Micah's hair cut and headed to the mall.
This A&M Sign was a surprise for Craig for his bday. It's from me and his parents. He hung it up in our front living room and I love it!! We also went out to dinner Friday night at an italian restaurant and had Nothing Bundt Cake for dessert!
Nana came and picked Micah up from school with me and he was so excited to show her all the fish.
We found a cute pumpkin patch at a really nice mall on Monday. It was best of both world with being able to go inside and outside because it was a beautiful day!
We dropped Nana off on Tuesday and it was sad. It was so nice to have someone with me all the time. I was never alone and for me that's enjoyable. Poor Craig had to sleep on an air mattress so I'm sure he was ready to get back to sleeping in his bed. Tuesday Night we went to Benihana. Micah loved it. He was mesmerized the whole time.
Sometimes when I just have the regular stroller it becomes a double stroller. haha Micah will hold on to Noelle so we can get from point A to B quickly!!
Today we went to a small park with fake grass so Noelle could crawl around. It was getting rough to take her to parks because she wants to eat all the wood chips.
I can't believe it's Friday tomorrow already. This week sure did fly by. My kids are missing their Nana and Papa, but we are already getting excited to see everyone this Christmas.
Hope you enjoy all the pics! Love you all
