So we moved our stuff into storage last Thursday…..it was a lot of work, but luckily we had a ton of friends to help. Ashley and I were paranoid that we would have no one to help join us, but lots of friends did, we had to turn some away! Anyway, we will miss living in Denver. We have made a great group of friends, but alas the road calls us.
We left for Baton Rouge on Friday morning. We ended up driving two cars to Baton Rouge as we had too much stuff to fit in one car. So we both had to drive the whole way. We were glad to have books on CD, it made the time past quickly. We spent the night in North Richland Hills, TX, right by the mall. I actually remember hanging out at that mall when I was in high school, which seems like such a long time ago.
We arrived into Baton Rouge on Saturday afternoon and spent the evening with Chris, Herpreet, Rebecca, Ward and some of Herpreet’s friends. Dinner at Chelsa’s was some good eating, with plenty of wine and beer. A good time was had by all. Before dinner, we dropped by Damon and Cassina’s….they have 3 lovely kids and an awesome recording studio. It had been a while since we had visited with them and it was nice to catch up. Hopefully they will move to the west coast so we see them more often.
On Sunday, we went to brunch at Mansurs (Yummy), Ashley visited with Tracy and Sophie along with Michael having a dinner with friends. I had a great time on Sunday and Sunday evening – meeting and seeing some friends.
We were originally heading to Georgia on Monday but some family things came up that are encouraging us to stay in BR until Thursday, and Monday night was spent at Ward and Rebecca’s drinking copious amounts of alcohol along with eating some yummy shrimp (Miss Debbie has the best recipes!!!!). Today we will remain with them to celebrate the 4th…..eating bbq ribs (well I will eat them at least) and drinking some more. No wonder I always associate a headache with Baton Rouge!
