I had everything planned for a wedding in New Orleans, the city where I was born. The date was May 27, 2006 and we were having a grand party at Popp Fountain in City Park among the live oaks and spanish moss. All of that changed August 2005! Now our family and friends are joining us on a cruise to the Bahamas.

I applied for my first passport last month. I now feel like I need to go somewhere with it. What’s even cooler…my mom applied for the first time in her life. It’s an awesome feeling!!
