Not many photos this year - but here is the catch up from last year. Brittany and Skylar in the back (far left) Erin, Ben and Mz. Lolly with Jake in the front. Behind them, JC, Me, Bob, Jessie, Andy and Chad. I'm working on a replacement for the "suit of lights" for next year. I'm in a black (not one of the better known Mardi Gras colors) suit because we had to visit the Queen of Apollo before hand. Never let your social life get in the way of being festive!
This was the first Mardi Gras in 15 years that was just family. No friends from out of town or college students. As much as I enjoy the chaos, it was really easy and stress free. No washing linens and towels for days before and days after. The house is back to "normal", with the exception of a couple of tubs waiting to go back to storage.
Ridiculous - 5 days of fun and I have all of about 4 photos. I've got to get another camera!
Tablescape aside, it is a beautiful picture. The whole family together and shining with "happy", perfect! Love, Angel

What a wonderful family! I'm so glad you are back to blogging. I've had your blog bookmarked since I found it after Katrina...and have checked back often to read your wonderful writing that I always enjoy.
