Mardi Gras

It has been awhile! We went to Lafayette for Mardi Gras and so I was either busy packing up for it or busy unpacking and recouperating from the trip. We had a great time!

Friday night Madeline spent the night with Aunt Missy while mommy and daddy went to Xanadu.Saturday we went to the children's parade at Cajun Field with daddy's family. Cousin Carly came with us and caught lots of stuff for Madeline while sitting on cousin Melissa's lap.Happy 1st Valentine's Day Madeline!!!! We got her a puppy dog that sings and flaps his ears. She loves it!!!!!!
That afternoon we went to Houma for a parade. Maw Maw and Madeline caught a football without even trying! It fell right there while we were not even looking...so weird!She had a little too much paradeing that day! After the Houma parade we hurried to Morgan City to see another parade and a bunch of family members. Madeline got to meet cousin Theresa for the first time. She, Katie, and Jacob were in from Georiga.Madeline LOVES to grab glasses and then eating them!!!!!! Thanks cousin Charlene for your glasses!!!!Monday afternoon we went to a crawfish boil at one of Uncle Ralph's friends. Gigi gave me my Valentine's Day present...a teddy bear that talks. Anut Doreen and cousin Jeanne helped Madeline open the present.Uncle Ralph and Madeline were both a little unsure about this situation! haha
Happy 1st Mardi Gras Madeline!!!!! She was all bundled up under her Mardi Gras dress b/c mommy was NOT putting a jacket over the dress! haha It was just way too cute! :) Sitting in Aunt Tanya's RV with cousin Natalie and Jenna.Then we went to the Bacon's Mardi Gras party and watched Mrs. Tracey and Mr. Brent past by in the Independance Parade.

We left Lafayette around 3:30 and got home around 7:30 with one stop to eat. We had a great time and I think Madeline enjoyed her first Mardi Gras. She LOVES beads!
