Got it Going On

When you google "Got it Going on" you get the result 1. Someone with good luck or 2.
a really hot girl that has an excellent figure, a lot of class, and an extreamely friendly demeanor. I think both apply! haha.


What I really mean is there is have a lot going on with life.  N has been traveling for work or having his "man" weekends then on the weekends he is in town, I am not.  My weekend was spent in New Orleans with a fabulous group of ladies celebrating our dear friend, Erin, and her final days of bachlorette life.  IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!  During girl weekends I always say "why we don't do this more often?"  Hopefully this will be a more regular occurance. 

Most of the group had been to New Orleans several times and a few even spent their college years at Tulane.  For our mixed group we wanted to hit the hightlights of the City for the first timers and then enjoy the less touristy hot spots since we had some semi "locals" leading the way.  Friday night we kicked it off on Bourbon Street, as always it was debauchury and interesting people watching at it's fullest. 

Our hotel, Country Inn & Suites, had a excellent breakfast so Saturday we started off the day with the most important meal.  Then ventured out to enjoy the beautiful weather. 
Over looking Jackson Square
Jackson Square was full of life and entertainment.  We stopped for lunch at Muriel's .  Muriel's has a rich history which includes ghosts, a se'ance room, and the only public balcony overlooking Jackson Square.  Fredrico, our waiter, was EXTREMELY eager to share with us all the details and even give a tour.

Se'ance
After the"tour" we shopped around French Market and watched a random swing dance competition taking place. 
Social
 After a little rest and relax back at CI&S  we went uptown for dinner at Jacques Imo's.  Jacques Imo's  has become one of the hottest food tickets in town, known for its eclectic mix of Creole and Cajun specialties.  A must have is the alligator cheesecake, it is a savory dish served as an appetizer...Delish!  After dinner we enjoyed a few high class cocktails at The Club (every drink is $2.00) then on to Gold Rush for some dancing. 

Realizing I am to old and don't know the song!
The dance moves continued through the wee hours of the morning, then an early departure to Chicago left me a run down but I would do it all over againg this weekend!

  Can't wait till the wedding on New Years Eve!!!!
