Aidan and Andrew's first Mardi Gras Parade Ever!
Grammy, Nanny, Daddy and I decided to load up the car and take y'all to your first ever Mardi Gras Parade! The Krewe of Highland parade rolls @ 2pm on the Sunday of Mardi Gras and is supposed to be very family oriented so I thought it would be just perfect! We didn't know exactly where to go or park but we just decided to wing it! Daddy asked a police officer at the Circle K for more info and then we found a place to park, loaded up the sit n stand stroller and our backs and made our way! We found a great little spot in front of a church and set up camp! Here's the day in pictures:

| Grammy wanted to buy her grandboys a prize! |
 |
| Shopping! Grammy liked this hat, but oh no, that's not what y'all chose . . . |
 |
| Daddy blowing bubbles for Andrew while waiting on the parade . . . |
 |
| He loved it! |
 |
| Aidan made a tent out of blankets on the stroller- I think to eat his skittles without his brother begging for some . . . |
 |
| Grammy and Nanny waiting on the parade . . . |
 |
| Andrew snacking . . . |
 |
| Aidan still snacking . . . |
 |
| And there it is in all it's glory- your prize! The TRUMPET! That was your prize you chose for Grammy to buy for you! Thankfully the people around us weren't too concerned or annoyed with all of the loud trumpeting . . . |
 |
| Andrew still eating! |
 |
| Watching the parade start with Grammy, with Cheeto in hand! |
 |
| Aidan on Ryan's shoulders . . .I think you were a little nervous- Look at that grip on your daddy's neck! |
 |
| Andrew just taking it all in |
 |
| Grammy, Daddy, Aidan and Andrew |
 |
| All smiles! Mardi Gras is fun! |
 |
| Grammy showed us all how it's done and probably caught the most out of all of us! |
 |
| Nanny manning the chairs and bags! |
 |
| Beads! Andrew loved the beads! He would put them on then take them off and put them back on again! He would even dance and swing the beads to the music! |
 |
| Aidan would catch a piece of candy and then go sit down and eat it immediately! |
 |
| Momma's turn! |
