We hosted a Semi-Random Happy Hour with friends ....
We started out at Eighteenth Cocktail Bar (cool spot) & then did a little bar crawl.
My sister, brother & nieces & nephew came to visit us for a week in July, it was great time. We went to Galveston to the Pleasure Pier (can you believe I left my camera ? ) I was so digusted.LOL The kids had a ball & I was more engaged since I wasn't busy taking pics. We also did some wedding planning stuff while they were in town. My nieces were having fun trying on dresses for the wedding...

My love surprised me with a trip to New Orleans for my Birthday in July. I wasn't expecting to go back until September, since are on this wedding savings budget, LOL. I didn't find out until about 3 days before we left. He had already booked a Hotel. I was able to bring my veil & make an appointment so that my stylist could do a hair trial for the wedding. I also got to take a lot of new pictures for the photo book I am working on.

Of course I got my seafood fix. This was my dinner one night at Saint Lawrence. I had an awesome drink here called the....yep, Saint Lawrence but I didn't get a pic of it. It was a very well crafted cocktail. It was my favorite Vodka, Titos, along with Champagne, St. Germaine & passionfruit. It was deelish !
Of course I HAD to have a Hurricane at Pat O' Briens. Is it funny that I have never had a meal there after all of these years of traveling to New Orleans ? LOL

We had taken off work on Friday & were all set to have a wonderful extended 3 day weekend celebrating my birthday & planning for our upcoming wedding. Things were going well until late Saturday night, when the Zimmerman verdict came in & we were out at a bar. We were both in a funk. I tried to shake it off on Sunday (my actual birthday) but the Mister just had a really hard time. Talk about a buzz kill.
As then to top things off, we got a call later that day from my close girlfriend's husband telling us she had been rushed to the hospital by ambulance so we had to leave NOLA in a hurry to get back home. ( I will try to blog about this more later).
The good news is my friend is on the mend. Praise God !
What's been going on with you ?
