shoes


... take you places
... come in all shapes & sizes
... have their own personality
... collect a little piece of everywhere you go
... have a different perspective on the world
... make feet happy
... make feet want to kill themselves
... have gentle conversations with matching outfits
... love to be noticed
... HATE gum {i can't blame them}
... put smiles on faces
... are my favorite accessory!!!

the french marketplace
{best piece of mouse cake i've ever had, no joke!!}

i know that there are a lot of pics here but these are just some of my favorite things that i did while we were down there.  there is absolutely no way that these pictures could do new orleans justice but enjoy the little taste!  i plan to be back to my normal posting schedule next week guys!!

awkward & awesome: new orleans edition


awkward:
- waiting in line for tickets
- being trampled when there is mass confusion amongst college students
- not knowing how to pronounce "andouille"
- street entertainers using you in their act
- when you realize everyone around you has been intoxicated since oh about 8:30 in the morning
- long distance road trips
- awful hotel service
- that moment when you greet your trash talking adversary after you win the game
- a full folk band playing live in Hardee's?

awesome:
- watching Anthony Davis play the game of a lifetime!
- eating beignets and cajun food
- the french quarter
- 1850's style houses
- watching the wildcats bring home the 8th NCAA tournament championship
- street cars
- the artist's square
- ferry rides
- spending time with friends
- NOT being in lexington when the couches were lit and the cars were overturned

i spent the weekend in New Orleans so more pictures are coming soon!!
