What's happening in our world...

I am so looking forward to having the family come and visit me. Every day that passes, I get a little more excited. Yesterday, Lindy my niece called to inquire all about the plane ride (she has never been on a plane), and was asking if there were murders' who lived in my city.
Christy, my sister, also has a few inquires of her own, a few of which I will now include. According to Christy, all she wants to do is see the mighty Mississippi river, and ride on a "Mark Twain boat," as well as try a New Orleans tradition called beignet (also known at the "French Donut"), and I have been told to get them at the famous, Café du Monde. Christy also wants to tray a Mufalatto (sorry with the spelling) sandwhich. I am just excited to see them all and can't wait until they are here. The weather has been nice and we are looking forward to having a good time! Only 2 more days!
