Weekending No.7 Mardi Gras

-
Linking up with Biana to share my weekend!
 
Friday night Ryleigh stayed with my aunt and I went out to eat with my mom and BK. We went to Newks then came home and called it an early night.
 
Saturday morning I woke up and cooked French toast for breakfast. Around lunch we went to town to get some things for a crawfish boil that afternoon. We enjoyed some yummy crawfish and beer later and sat around a fire talking with friends and family Saturday night.
 
Sunday morning we got up early and left to go to Houma, Lousiana for a mardi gras parade. We went with a large group of friends and had the best time!



 
After the parade we stopped to get king cakes and eat a late lunch/early supper at Zydecos.

They have some of the best char-grilled oysters I've ever ate!

Pasta Ponchatrain was amazing! Fried shrimp and oysters in a creamy alfredo sauce. Heaven!!
 
I enjoyed my weekend a lot, and I'm feeling more Cajun after this weekend ha! I hope everyone has a great week.

I'm not going to lie I don't shop at Nordstorm as much as I should or could ha! I did get a Nordstrom card last year so I could shop the early access sale, and I shopped again this year. Here are a few of my picks. First up.. Zella leggings I love my zella leggings and I wanted a maternity pair to wear during my pregnancy, so I was able to catch this pair on sale!   sweater I don't wear a lot of turtle necks, because I'm funny about things around my neck. However, I've seen several bloggers talking about this sweater and how soft and light it is. We will see how I like it when it arrives.   sneakers I need a new pair of tennis shoes and I thought these were cute. I hope they fit!   ruffle dress I found this cute dress for Brynlee for fall. I love the ruffle sleeves.   jeans I bought these jeans for Ryleigh and I hope she likes this as much as I do. The bottoms are so cute!   wedge sneakers I couldn't pass up the

I enjoyed a really low key weekend with my girls, which is just what I need before they go to their dad's for two weeks :( Friday night we enjoyed chips, cheese dip, and pizza at my mom's house. Bk wanted to spend the night with her, so it was just Ryleigh and me. Ryleigh painted my nails, then we played a few games, and called it an early night. Saturday morning I went grocery shopping. That afternoon we went to Ryleigh's rodeo. my girl with her winnings from the day!   Sunday we went to church, then ate lunch at my mom's.  quick church picture! Sunday afternoon I took the girls to the creek since they will miss Memorial day at the creek, which is a big weekend! We managed to get to the creek and swim for a few minutes before a ton of bad weather blew through! Talk about a cold and wet ride home.   I am hoping for a good week and I hope everyone else has one too! linking up with Biana

Linking up with Danielle , Emily , Lizzie , Sierra , and Lindsay  to share a few of my guilty pleasures! 1. Shopping Online Ok I'll admit I am a little late jumping on the online shopping bandwagon. I used to only shop in stores so I could try the clothes on before I bought them. I just recently decided to start ordering online, and I feel like I've been missing out on life ha! I ordered this "express yourself" dress from The Mint Julep boutique for my upcoming beach trip, and I received $10 off my order just for signing up for e-mails :) I've been eyeing these wedges on varies boutique pages and I lucked up and found this pair at Target. I was able to get these and a pair of sandals for BK(below) and a free $10 gift card!   2. Sweets Let's face it, I am a sucker for anything sweet! I could live on chocolate alone, but you know how that would end up. Since starting Weight Watchers I have had to find different ways to curb my sweet t
