Mardi Gras

Mikayla went to her first Mardi Gras parade today. It has been several years since I’ve been. A friend from work invited me, and it actually ended up being a huge group of people there from my school. We had a GREAT time. Of course I was a nervous wreck trying to keep up with Mikayla, but it is something I’ll never forget. She even had some King Cake for the first time and absolutely LOVED it! As you can tell from the pictures she figured out how to get the people to give her beads. There were people on the floats pointing for us to come up there so they could hand her something- she even got a little teddy bear!
