Monday Night Special


Tonight we went with some friends to Pappadeaux's. Lane has been talking about this special they have going on for weeks. It's 1lb of crawfish for $5. He was so excited, & even though I detest anything that swims, I went for support. I just reaffirmed the fact that I didn't like seafood by watching everyone crack open their crawfish. They are probably the most disgusting creatures I've ever laid eyes on. I don't know how that can look appetizing for anyone!


"Please don't eat me!"

Sight Seeing

Yesterday, Lane & I went sight-seeing around town. First, we went to the Byzentine Chapel. It was very interesting & the lady told us a lot of facts about the artist who designed it. We weren't allowed to take pictures inside, but I did find one on the internet. The chapel is very small & dark. It's made out of this frosted glass, supposedly to give it the "floating" effect.

The second place we went to was the Rothko Chapel. I didn't like this one very much. You walk in & it's this large room with 4 benches forming a square. There's these large black paintings on all 4 walls. That's it. I don't really understand how anyone likes that stuff. Very uninspirational...if that's even a word.

The final stop was my favorite. A friend of ours told us about this house made completely out of beer cans. I was intrigued right away. So I looked it up & we went to see it. Sure enough, it was there. The siding of the house was made from flattening the cans. Supposedly the guy who did this retired from his job & got bored. ha.

Who's Creative?

Lane & I are coming up on 1 year & I've spent all my spare time thinking of something fun to do for our anniversary. I'm talking, surfing the internet for hours on end, asking everyone I know, etc. I'm at the point where I'm tired of thinking & am about ready to just leave it at dinner. But, that's not me. I like to come up with creative ideas. And unfortunately I've got nothin! So, I leave it to whoever reads this, to give me ideas. Please help!

New Camera


Yea! We finally got a new camera! We decided with me being forced to tutor after school, I could at least get something good out of it. We've been wanting a new camera for a while now. The camera we have is supposedly really nice, but it's huge & always takes blurry pictures...because we can't figure out how to work it. So we're going to sell it & start from scratch. I just spent the last 2 hours reading the owners manual. That's my least favorite part about the purchase. But I know we'll be so much happier with better pictures! So be on the look out for clearer posted pictures!

Valentine's Day


Here are the flowers Lane & I got each other...original I know. Lane actually gave his to me last night. Reason being we only have 1 car & I drive it to work everyday. So he walked to the store to get them. Sweet, right? He also got me chocolate covered strawberries for breakfast. Just what I needed! What a great husband :)
