Mardi Gras (very late)

We had a float in the local Mardi Gras parade for our office. It was a very family friendly parade. AK loved riding on the float but I caught her quite a few times trying to climb off the float while we were rolling. We had a blast.
AK is turning 20 months old tomorrow. I can't believe she is that old. What i really can't believe is that I turned 30 today! Time flies....

BG drove the float. AK had fun but did not like Ronald McDonald at all. That's when she started saying, "I don't like it." Now that's her favorite phrase.

Yipee for an AK update! You know I'm obsessed with Mardi gras so if I we still lived there we'd be all about catching throws from your float!!
I'm sure Anna Kate stole everyone's hearts!
Happy Birthday! I tried calling you but I must have your old number. Give me a ring so we can chat about our Memorial day weekend and how the business is going!

Happy Birthday! Didn't know our birthdays were just 4 days apart (plus a few years my way). Loved the parade pics, looks fun!

Joe is too funny! Having grown up in Colorado and then Kentucky, I sadly have never experienced a Mardi Gras anything. It's like you have this whole holiday that my family never celebrated... if one were to become a Mardi Gras convert, where would one begin?? Just buy some beads and throw myself a parade? AK is adorable (and she finally seems about the same age as my Anna Kate now!)
