WHO DAT! ~ NOBODY

This was an amazing Sunday for Saints fans. 43-44 years in the making.

We planned a small Superbowl party. When you have 10 people in the house is anything ever really small?  We even had a couple of friends over.

Anyway, we made chicken and turkey sausage gumbo, chicken jambalaya, ordered a King Cake from NOLA.  Tried to get Randazzo but they weren't shipping in time so we went with Gambinos Which was really cool because it came with Black and Gold Sugar:). The kids had black Fleur-de-leis drawn on their faces or arms. Adults were wearing Who Dat shirts or Saints shirts.

3 years ago, I rooted for the "hometown boy" today there was none of that. My loyalties were strictly with my team. 

What a game! The stats were stacked against them but the Saints proved that stats are just numbers. They played with heart and WON!!! Many of the players are players that no other team wanted. In 2005 Brees left San Diego with a shoulder injury. Shockey was injured and couldn't play in the 2007 Superbowl with the Giants. Hargrove battled addiction and came back. Like New Orleans itself, these players are fighters and have given their ALL.

Ya know my favorite pic of the whole night was this one...sharing the moment with his wife and child.



THANK YOU BOYS and NEW ORLEANS for rebuilding and Finishing Strong

I do feel for Payton Manning, I could see the frustration in him.  He's an awesome quarterback. BUT Superbowl XLIV belonged to NEW ORLEANS SAINTS and the whole city and metro area of New Orleans.

Mission Statement


I would like our home to be clutter-free, inviting and peaceful. My goal is to decide which tasks I need to do or delegate each day so we can maintain a better, more organized lifestyle. My goals also include providing an environment where my children can learn to be productive and Godly people. I want my family and others to know that this house is one where they can be free to live simply, love deeply and laugh abundantly. I want to be able to invite friends over without having to clean up for three days beforehand.
