mardi gras overload

I took sooooo many pictures at the parades. It's crazy. The floats were insane.
Friday night we went to the Hermes/Krewe D' Etat/ Morpheus parades...(all 3 were back to back).

There were some drunks standing next to us (see behind me in the picture below?) This one dude bent over to pick up some beads and he flashed most of his butt crack right at me. Not just the top inch or 2...I am talking almost the whole crack. But it was accidental. No intentional flashing was witnessed. I was so happy about that!

My sweet baby:::



If you click on the picture you can see this better. The floats were really pretty.


These creepy dudes were Emily's favorite:::

Julian spent Friday night at a friend's house because they had a Boyscout project the next morning. (parking cars on the parade route for cash to raise money for camp)

See...that's what we were doing the night before!!!

There's a ward building on the parade route with a nice parking lot. People paid $25/each to park there.
Friday was Emily's 8th birthday! She got to stay home from school. It's our little tradition. We went shopping all over town. She got to pick out her own present. Plus she had some birthday money so she got a bunch of things. Then we met Josh for lunch at Sicily's Pizza (her choice).
We went home, played, organized her room, and then headed off for the parade!!!
