NOLA Shenanigans

After a crazy year of weddings in 2013, it's kind of nice to have only one so far in 2014.  That wedding, being for our dear friends Cody and Melissa Failinger-to-be! I met Melissa back in 4th grade in REACH.  That's right, fellow RISD-ers... we were smart little cookies.  (I wonder what went wrong?!) (Kidding.)

Anyway, we celebrated our bride in March with a weekend getaway to trouble New Orleans. It was such a whirlwind weekend -- my flight left Lubbock at 6:45am Friday and returned at 6:45am Sunday morning -- but it was totally worth the lack of sleep.   I know the rule is what happens at the Bachelorette party, stays at the Bachelorette party... which is why I will simply skim this weekend. There was just too much fun had not to share SOME pictures of what we got ourselves into.  Here's a snapshot of an amazing few days with a few of my favorite girls!
Adorable cups that made sure everyone knew what we were doing. (As if we needed cups for that. ha!)
Signature girl pic in the elevator.
Ready for our first night out!
First stop, hurricanes at Pat O's. 
Tri Delt's reunited... you just kinda have to. Don't judge us. 
For the record, that white cup is water.
Saturday's early view from the the hotel. Good morning, NOLA! 
Some Berkner Rams posing in front of the steamboat cruise. (Which was so much fun, btw.)
Saturday night with the girls... and LA Hard Bodies. 
Like I said, this post is slim for obvious reasons... some bachelorette stories are best left untold. Ha! However, I will always think of this weekend when I hear "Happy" "Let It Go" or even "We can't stop." Also, I'll never look at a "Hurricane" the same way again. Can't wait to party again in June! (Just maybe, on a little lesser scale. I can't hang like I used to!)

Love you, Mel!
