The Big Easy

I have spent the last week in meetings, but I can't complain because those meetings were right in the heart of New Orleans!!!  I flew out of Little Rock on Tuesday afternoon and a group of us arrived early enough to grab dinner at Mr. B's on Royal St.  It was delicious!!  I've said it before, but I LOVE the team I work with and we always have so much fun.  Wednesday morning we started our meeting down at Cafe Beignet...

With Brittney and Whitney

That night all 6 of the districts dressed up for Halloween and Lilly rented out the upstairs of Pat O's on Bourbon street.  Our team decided to dress up as a group.  Every district has a name, and our district is the Little Rock A-Team.  (Being that we always bring our A-game and we ARE from AR.)  Instead of individually dressing up, we decided we would go as the A-Team.  Rhonda did a great job in getting our tshirts made and getting everyone the "accessories" we needed.  It's great to work for a company that can have so much fun!

Mark, Marcus, Nicki and Brittney

The A-TEAM!!

This is blurry, but I couldn't quit laughing...Nicki's bullets were falling off the entire way to Pat O's.

We were starving by the end of the night, so we made a late night run to 'Mothers' - it was the worst I have eaten in a long time!!  We had fried chicken, waffles, french fries, potato salad, cornbread, bread pudding, etc.

It was a heart attack on a plate!!

Thursday night, after a day of meetings, we went to the coolest place.  It was called Corks and Canvas (obviously a place where you can drink while painting).  Our team had a blast!!

All the ladies ;)

The instructor walked us through how to draw and shadow.

This was such a great idea and I had a blast!!  We actually have some talented artists on our team!!

After a morning of meetings on Friday, I was excited to make my way to the airport.  It was a great week, but I am so glad to be home and I'm looking forward to keeping these feet on the ground for at least two months! :))
