Mardi Gras 2013
We used to always go the Mardi Gras festivities but as the crowds get larger and a little crazy we decided to wait till the little girls got a little bigger. What fun we had this year and I don't think we will miss another Mardi Gras. Ella Jo, a few days after we celebrated you asked if you could go back to Mardi Gras. It was so cute because you thought Mardi Gras was just a cool place to ride rides, face painting, yummy food, and catch tons of beads from beautiful floats all lit up playing fun music to dance to in the street!! Mommy had to explain the importance of Mardi Gras. It is a fun time to be had but there is a beautiful reason behind it. Preparing for the biggest sacrifice ever made.
Alexa Rae, you ate with us but stayed with a friend to have your own teenager fun! You stayed for a concert and from the stories you came home and told me you had a ball.
THROW ME SOMETHING MISTER...
Addi Grace, your momma couldn't believe how you let go of all your shy bugs! You jumped up and down, danced to the music, yelled at the floats, and simply had the best time! Next year we will have to bring a back pack for all our awesome beads. Fun Fun Fun is what we had on this night! Can't wait till next year. Thank you Lord for the most amazing gift you could give us. I promise as a mother to raise my girls understanding completely the significance of this beautiful time~
