Mardi Gras...

Since Emma and Dave moved to the New Orleans area, mom and I decided we should go down for Mardi Gras. We all arrived Friday night and went out in search of local food for dinner. After running into about 3 closed restaurants, we try one more and ran into a parade. Little did Dad, John, Dave and I know that we were with the most intense bead catchers on the planet. Strangers were running away in fear of being knocked over by one of them. That night, I caught a bag of beads to save Daddy's life. Who knew I could catch?? That was the biggest shock. We got home and woke up stinkin early to get a good spot. Mom bought E, me and her matching t-shirts to wear. We looked so cute! We watched the parade and Dave stayed for the next one. He found a "loose" girl to stand behind and ended up bringing home a ton of beads. As we left the parade, it started storming. We decided to weather the storm at Mahoney's and enjoy a poboy. After a long day, then a quick nap, we ate a low key dinner and woke up to have beignets and we all left... Family weekend #2 was a blast!!! I hated to drive home. Looking forward to the next family fun weekend!!
Love!
