Two days after Christmas, we were off to New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl
DJ flew out the day before, and we were on the official team plane.
The girls received beads as soon as we landed!
We settled in to our hotel room, and the next day, we headed to Jackson Square with a few other families.
We ate beignets on the steps at Jackson Square.
And the girls had pearl rings made at the French Market.
The next day, the wives were off for some dueling pianos, umbrella decorating, and a parade!
The bead throwing from the wagon was so much fun! We had lunch at Arnaud's and then we all went to the Carousel bar for espresso martinis
This group of ladies is so much fun!
Later that night, we headed out for dinner and Megan really enjoyed her fried chicken!
We drove by Tulane so Gretchen could get a glimpse of their campus
DJ and I ended the night in the hospitality suite.
and had some fun in the photo booth!
The next day, the wives were off on a tour of New Orleans houses in the Garden district. This was right up my alley, I love architecture and old houses.
We had to wear protective shoe coverings in one of the houses.
Some of the houses got in on the fun and decorated for each team.
We ended our home tour with lunch at the zoo.
We were able to go to Mardi Gras for world for a pre-game party!
And ended the night with fireworks!
