Superbowl Champs!

It was truly unbelievable to see history made last night and I feel very fortunate to have been able to experience it in Louisiana. Even though we weren't in New Orleans, Lafayette was certainly rocking last night even during the shaky first quarter play by the Saints. It was great to hear the fireworks going off and car horns honking around the city last night during the post-game celebration. This win was great for the city of New Orleans, the state of Louisiana and even the country as a whole. America has a new favorite team and they're called the New Orleans Saints! Who Dat!

Who Dat!

Today is the day that the long suffering New Orleans Saints will finally have a chance to play for the glory of a Superbowl win. After dismal years of mediocrity and fans wearing bags on their heads during games, the nation has been overcome with the spirit of Who Dat! Roxi and I were happy to watch the Saints get to this point with their win over the Vikings in the NFC Championship two weeks ago but we wished we could have been in Louisiana to celebrate with our friends and family rather than in Tennessee Titans country in Memphis. Roxi's second grandmother in four months unfortunately passed away on Thursday so we traveled to Lafayette on Friday for the funeral yesterday. As sad as funerals are, the gathering of family and friends is comforting and can even be jovial. So in this sad time, we are fortunate to be with the Benoit family to watch the game this evening and hope to see the Saints win their first ever Superbowl! Who Dat? Who Dat? Who Dat say dey gonna beat dem Saints?
