Happy Mardi Gras!




We took the girls and cousin Brandon to Natchitoches on Saturday to be in the Krewe of Wag-uns children's and pet parade downtown. We brought masks, beads, a wagon and even our dog, Bingo to be in the parade. The girls' friend, Alex, and his dad joined us also. We made it up to Natchitoches, ate a good lunch and then it started to rain!

We went to the parade route and waited it out - the rain let up so the parade began. The kids were given lots of beads and cups to throw out and had fun chunking things at people. Halfway through the parade, it really started to rain and we all agreed it was time to cut out. We took a detour and made it back to the truck. Everyone was wet and a little chilly, but we turned up the heat in the truck and made it back to our house. Brandon spent the afternoon playing with the girls, including "house" and "restaurant" with Peyton.
