This past year has been wonderful. It has been full of love, laughter, and fun times. We were surrounded by our awesome families, crazy friends and our two furry kids. For our anniversary we decided to take a quick trip to New Orleans. We went down on the Friday before our actual anniversary. We went down without a plan and just living by the moment. We got to New Orleans around 330pm and went straight to our hotel. Zach did a lot of research on where we should stay, since I was still hobbling along at that time. Bourbon Orleans Hotel was our final decision on were we would stay. This hotel was so convenient to everything. As soon as we got our room we went straight to Cafe du Monde!!
I had to make sure to get my beignet fix while I was there. After Cafe du Monde we went back to the hotel to get ready for the night. A sweet couple that we hang out with wanted to take us out in New Orleans for our anniversary. They did WAY too much. Randall and Heather drove all the way to NOLA to take us out to eat. We ate at the Country Club of New Orleans. The food was DELICIOUS!!! There are no words for how good it was. After dinner Randall (who is from New Orleans) wanted to show us around. We went to the Whiskey Blue Bar at the W Hotel. We enjoyed a few drinks and moved on to the Ritz Carlton. Enjoyed a few more drinks and chocolate drizzled beignets!!! They were delicious!
Chocolate drizzled beignets!!!! YUMMY!

We has a blast having Randall as our tour guide and experiencing other placed besides Bourbon St. Saturday we got up very early and enjoyed breakfast at our hotel. After that we just did a little sight seeing and walked around.
After a long day we decided to head on back home and enjoy the rest of the weekend with Duke and Delta.
On our anniversary (10-31) we just sat at home and enjoyed being lazy. We did cook a delicious supper.
Hamburger steak, baked sweet potato fries, green bean bundles, and stuffed mushrooms!!! My mouth is watering thinking about it!!!! SOOOOO GOOD!!!
And of course we followed the tradition of saving your top layer of your wedding cake. It has been sitting in the freezer all this time.
It look just as good as it did at our actual wedding... now for taste... I will just say that it is a one year old cake.
Thanks to everyone who has been a part of our first year of marriage. Here is one year down... MMMMMAAAANNNNYYYY more to go!!!!!
