It's the Mardi Gras Season

Today when I checked my mailbox
there was a little slip of paper
saying I had a package at the local post office.
I went to pick it up and the lady brought out this huge box
covered in purple, green and gold mask confetti!
The lady thought something was broken inside
so she told me to open it right there,
so I did and inside were Moon Pies!
My daddy is a Shadow Baron (a Mardi Gras Krewe)
and he sent me footballs, cups and beads
all with the Shadow Barons logo!
He also sent me tickets to their Mardi Gras Ball!
It was the best surprise ever!
So now I am super pumped for Mardi Gras to get here!!!

It is so neat to have a holiday that is specific to our area of the country!
I cannot imagine Febuary and March without Moon Pies, beads, parades and King Cake!
So, yay for Mardi Gras!

Tomorrow is finally Friday!
I have no plans for the weekend,
which is exactly how I want it!


Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez!
Let the good times roll!
