Lovin' New Orleans

Today is just a regular day, nothing special going on, but I am having a day where I am overwhelmed by how happy I am to be living in New Orleans. I spent a lot of the morning running errands and getting a few things done and it makes me realize it's the small things that make me like this place.

I have found so many places that I love. I love that I have found a great and affordable lawn man. I love that I have found a talented tailor to shorten all of my pants. I love that I have found a great hair stylist. I love that I have found a great preschool that Tre loves. I love that we have found an awesome place for Tre to take swimming lessons. I love our family dentist. I love the kids doctor! I love that we have found all these things here.

I love that there are so many things for the kids to do. We have the park, the Aquarium, the Insectarium, the Zoo, and the Children's Museum. It's a big enough city that we have fun things come like the circus! It's nice to have these options.

I am so thankful for all the friends I have made. I put together a Supper Club and 3other couples are coming over here for dinner tomorrow. I am looking forward to it. I also have my college friends here and get to go out with them once a month!

I love that my family is only a couple hours away. It's been awesome being able to go see them when Jack is out of town or just to go in for nothing or for a freinds wedding. It's been such a luxury.

I really hated living in Kingsville, and I realize that more now than ever. There wasn't much to do. I never found my niche there. Having gone through that experience it really makes me appreciate this one. I won't mind moving next time, I just hope we can find what we have found here!

  1. I'm glad you are enjoying it there. I feel the same about Virginia Beach even though my family is all on the west coast. It will be hard leaving here.
