Mardi Gras Parade......






We went to our first Mardi Gras Parade. I forgot the town we went too but it was in a shopping center. Before the parade we had lunch at California Kitchen. Good food and Abby still raves about their "amazing chicken sandwich". We also shopped at Barnes & Noble before the parade (really we went in there to stay warm!!). It was sooooo cold and windy (we thought we went south to get rid of this kind of weather). I am glad it was a short parade cause I don't know how long we could have stayed outside. Once the parade started it was a blast. The parade people were throwing beads (and being this was a rated G parade we did not have to show anything to get some!!), moon pies, toys, stuff animals and cups. Each kid had a bag full of things. It was really fun and can't wait to do it again sometime.
