Oh when the SAINTS go marching in!!!!

Oh how proud we are to be in that number!!!!!!

Oh my goodness. Hell is freezing over, the second coming of Christ is near....Breesus Christ that is, pigs are flying somewhere, NOLA overcame the high waters from Katrina, I can't wipe the smile off of my face, my dad has finally witness the Saints go to AND WIN the Superbowl...I hope he was on the over (I guess wearing his Cha-Ching shirt and pants has finally paid off), Gus participated in his first ever football pool and he won $25 (Jake won 1Q and mom won the other 2Q's), Jake's uncle has waited his entire life to see this moment, and having been diagnosed with tongue cancer at the beginning of the season all of the wins week after week really kept his spirits up. This is what comes to my mind when I think of what happened tonight. History was made and lets hope that it keeps repeating itself!! With all that said this is a great way to start a new decade and it seems like it is just going to keep getting better!! This day is a day that every Louisianian has waited his/her whole life to see.

Even though we are not physically there in NOLA, we feel the feeling that everyone there is feeling....UNITY. What a feeling! This was the most watched television program ever....107 million viewers tuned in....AMAZING!!


This feels like a dream. It seems so surreal. Here is our night in pictures......

Monkey See, Monkey Do

Gusley and Marley have a wonderful friendship. Marley is the best cat ever. Just a smooth operator. Nothing gets his feathers ruffled and he loves Gusley and will go up to Gusley and swipe him with his tail to get Gus' attention. They are rather entertaining when they are together!

Halloween Fun!

After all the festivities of Trick-or-Treating Gus retreated to his "Oaklawn Tarpon" pants, as Jake calls them (Houma friends y'all know Oaklawn Junior High colors are blue and green). Gus must represent his daddy's junior high!! Here he had eaten his supper and taken his bath and was just deciding what to play with and Jake and I ate our Chinese take-out...yummy, yummy!!



This his how Marley spent his Halloween...in the recliner and in control of the remote control!
