Currently - Mexico on my mind

feeling so excited for this week. Sean and I have been stalking the resort we're staying at through YouTube and forwarding to our niece to get her pumped up. It's working! Yesterday she said, "Can it already be Wednesday?"

loving that we had a really relaxing weekend. It was so cold over the weekend so it was nice to have no plans and stay warm.

craving nothing at the moment. I think I'll get a salad for lunch today. Although, I've not really been thinking too much about a bikini bod, I might as well try to be good for the next two days ;).

needing to pack for Mexico! I did go through my closet yesterday so I do have ideas of what I'll be packing.

thankful that we can take our niece Nadiyah along with us! Our biggest goal is for her to have the best time. Hopefully this will be a great memory for her as she grows.

excited that we're doing this trip with Colleen and her crew. They are by far our favorite travel companions.

reading I've been slacking but I'll pick up a new book to read while on the plane and on the beach. Any recommendations?

wanting what Nadiyah wants. Can it be Wednesday already?

missing warm weather.

wearing a black dress, blue sweater and black booties. Can't wait to ditch these winter clothes!

hoping that you all had amazing weekends and that you have great weeks! ♥

New Orleans: Evening jazz cruise

Image
On our third evening in NOLA, we went on Steamboat Natchez for their evening jazz cruise. It is a two hour cruise ride along the Mississippi River and it was just so beautiful. We had dinner on the boat and although the food was nothing to write home about the overall experience was such a great one. The music, the views, the people... it was truly just a lovely experience. We experienced the loveliest sunset and just being able to see it and be in that moment was just one of the reasons why it really is so grand to be alive. Too many pictures were taken, even Sean wanted to take pictures and well, I don�t think you can blame us too much. Many of my pictures turned out like the one below because of the humidity. My lens would fog up immediately. It truly was such a great evening and one that I will not soon forget.

Good food & good music

Image
I don�t think there are many more things that are better than good food & good music. I truly believe that food & music can often play a role in putting someone in a great mood or a foul mood. For instance, I know that when I hear a song that I use to listen to when I was a kid, it just brings me back to that exact moment and often times I can�t help but get the silliest grin on my face. Anyway, this brunch date with Cinthia on an extremely cold, spring day (not bitter) did just that. It transported me back to New Orleans where I was stuffing my piehole with delicious foods while listening to live jazz music. And what a great time we had! Live jazz, bottomless mimosas, the cheesiest mac and cheese, lightly toasted cornbread, fried green tomatoes, NOLA shrimp and warm beignets. We felt like we ordered it all but truthfully, we hardly touched the surface of the menu. This wasn�t our first time at The Bayou but it was just as enjoyable as the first time. I feel like we w...

Spring made an appearance!

Image
Guys, we finally got spring like weather (80s!!!) and we made sure to take advantage of it. Good thing too because we are back in the 40s & 50s this week. Not nice spring, not nice. We first enjoyed coffee and breakfast on the deck and then went to the gym for a workout. We had big plans to work on our front and back yards after the gym as Mr. Sean did not rake up the leaves last fall. Since it was going to be such a nice day, I decided that I'd help him, ha. I know how that sounds but I love informing everyone that I�m responsible for the inside cleaning & he�s responsible for the outside cleaning, also known as, raking, mowing, shoveling, etc. Anyway, regardless of how much work it was, it was actually very enjoyable & I believe our workouts earlier in the day helped to give us the energy we needed to work several hours in the front and back yards. But let's be honest, with the weather being so nice it made me want to be outside all day. The dogs were lovin...
