Kristin's Shower...New Orleans...and a Weekend full of Red Snapper!!

Wow! What a week it has been! It all started last Thursday night with Kristin's Lingerie Shower Kayla and I hosted at our house. We had an awesome time with a great group! Great food...Great gifts...Great friends!

On Friday, Will and I visited New Orleans. This was our first trip since Katrina, so we really did not know what to expect. We had an awesome weekend together just walking around sightseeing! Before we left Saturday night we visited the aquarium. This was Will's first trip to the aquarium in New Orleans and he loved all of the fish! My favorite was the albino allegator, which I had a very hard time locating for some odd reason!

On Sunday we were invited deep sea fishing with a group that Will and his dad work with. This was my first fishing trip and I LOVED it! I cannot wait for Will and I to go fishing in Destin. We have already planned another trip. I did not get sick and the weather was beautiful! Will told me when we got back to shore that he was so worried about me he almost made himself sick...but he was really glad I was able to hang in there like a "trooper." I guess he thought I was a little too girly and pregnant for deep sea fishing but I have found a new summertime hobby! We had an awesome time and it was so nice of Chad, Susan, and her father to have us down! Oh and did I mention that I caught a ton of fish? I definitely out-fished Will! Our limit was 2 fish per person but several people were sick so I ended up getting to keep 4 fish! The largest weighed 24.8 lbs.! That one is going on the wall! I have always told Will that I wanted a "pink fish" on the wall one day...now I have a huge red snapper!
