Throw Me Somethin’ Mista

Brad was at the station, so Mom, Dad and I decided to take the kids to the Mardi Gras Parade. We grabbed a quick bite to eat at LongHorn, then headed down to SciPort. We let the kids walk around and see the floats. They were so excited to run into a couple of people we knew, so they got some special beads. Raelee was very excited to see a UES teacher and a friend of our on the “La Downs” float. She got a special HORSE bead! We found a great spot, and the kids had a blast. This was Colton’s first parade, so he was a bit confused. The first float went by and he didn’t catch anything……complete meltdown! He later learned to be patient and he would get PLENTY. He was having so much fun catching balls.  It’s so funny to watch Raelee. She has it down pat. She shakes those hips with her hands in the air and smiles that big toothless grin….PRICELESS : ) Checking out all the loot!
