Back In the Groove

New Orleans was awesome, awesome, awesome. But I was totally homesick (and Pupsick) by the time we came back on Wednesday night.

There were lots of things we could have liked to do...just ran out of time, and were too into doing the other things we were already liking, such as visiting the Funky Pirate, strolling the French Quarter and drinking Hurricanes every day.

Some places you just have to visit if you go:
The Funky Pirate, of course
Maximo's
Coop's Place
Johnny White's

You have to see Big Al Carson and Cori Walters groups play at The Funky Pirate, too. You don't want to miss that!

And the workshop we were there for (and planned)went really well. Everyone there told us that it was the best workshop they'd ever attended, which feels great.

Since getting home, we've just been working to get back into our routines and catch up on laundry, chores and sleep. We finally got the back patio in order yesterday, with Steinvic tackling the weedwhacking, and me trimming our little tree back and putting out 7 bags of gorgeous mulch.

AND, in puppy news...he got his vet checkup yesterday and the little dude is up to 6 pounds, 1.5 ounces. He seems pretty glad we're home, too, and is also back to his routine...

Life is good!
