So my friend Alexis Tirado and I are turning 30 this year and we’re combining forces to celebrate and raise money for the Gulf Coast oil spill. All proceeds from the party will go to Gulf Aid, a non-profit that is focused on providing relief to the families (fishing community) and environment (coastal wetlands) affected by the oil spill. For more info go to: gulfaid.org

Times are tough so we wanted to charge people a reasonable amount to attend our party. Since we’re turning 30 we’d like to charge $30. We’re going to auction off items as well and give giftbags at the end of party.  We are estimating that we’ll be raising $5,000 to $10,000 for this cause. Hopefully we’ll exceed our goal!  See you there!

Mardi Gras 2010 has come to an end. There were major highs (Saints Super Bowl winners!) and major lows (cancelled flights and lost luggage), but this Mardi Gras has definitely gone down as one of the most fun and exciting!

I wish I could say the trip went off without a hitch, but that’s the farthest from the truth.  From 2 flight cancellations to spending 10 hours in La Guardia airport to having our luggage lost, this trip was doomed before we even left New York.  It sounds bad, but once we saw all of our friends and family and got in that Mardi Gras spirit, we pretty much forgot about all the previous drama (well, almost).  Anyway, we had such a blast!  Go ahead and check out all of the photos and video we took of Mardi Gras 2010!

The New Orleans Saints won their first Super Bowl with a surprise 31-17 win over the Indianapolis Colts in Miami… and I was there.
