Take me out to the ballgame

We took Cooper to his first baseball game today....Tulane vs. Alabama!  He did sooo good and even slept thru the final 3 innings and a huge grand slam by a Tulane player. We won 7-2!!  It was kid's day at the park so before the game all the kids got to run out on the field and stand by their favorite player during the National Anthem.

Here is Coop with the first baseman. He is more interested in checking out the turf than hanging with the player.

After the big win by the Green Wave, they let all the kids run around the bases. Coop only made it to first base.

LSU game is Tuesday so we are gonna attempt game #2!!! 

Y'all are stay-at-home moms?

So lucky the hubs came home early from work (he has been working late late late) last Tuesday so I could enjoy a night out on the town with all my NOLA mommas!!  We try to get together once a month so we can have adult conversations about things other than runny noses, diapers, and tantrums.

We had a great time eating at Port of Call.

World Famous Burgers people. They were good. I'm not gonna lie.

We hit up a jazz club and ran into this guy: 

Honestly, I have no idea who he is. Jodi (native to these parts) told me he is famous around here. I can't remember. The latino on the end bought a whole bottle of champagne for us!! The blond on the other end is a latino, too!!  It is so interesting to hear about where they grew up and how their countries are so different from the good ole USA. And understanding they are here for all the opportunity this country provides...both their husbands are doctors and Liza went to Tulane. It reminds me how lucky I was to be born here and be a citizen.

We had a great night, experiencing all that New Orleans has to offer and what it is all about - good food and good music!!  No other place like it on earth!!  So lucky to have these new friends and an awesome new city. And to enjoy their company with out the distraction of 2 year olds!!!
