Better Late Than Never
Well, Mardi Gras was a couple of weeks ago. It was a great weekend, Mainly because I was off work for a whole week. Also because we got to spend time with family and friends. Tom & Jeri (seriously) Got a hotel room on St. Charles Ave which we used as headquarters for the festivities. Steve, Mary and the girls came down from Baton Rouge. Patricia, Thornton and the kids came in from Seattle AND Steve and Jeanine(Sorry J, I'm not sure which spelling you use) came in from the "Emerald City" as well. So yes, there were lots of people coming in and out. BUT, it doesn't stop there. Aunt Wanda & her posse had a room in the same hotel. This, of course means I got to see many beautiful faces from multiple sides of the family.
Some of those can be seen in the pictures above. The Group shot was taken on saturday night before Endymion. I took the picture, Kristi is playing her version of where's Kristi (as in where's waldo). Of course I added a picture of me and the Mrs. How I landed a babe like that is beyond me. I thought the picture of Steve(Bix) and Kristi(cupcake) was a good one. It was good to see the Seattlites, I hope they enjoyed their stay. In the oicture of Steve(W) and I, I am holding a pack of beads that Steve caught from Saints Coach Sean Payton. We will be wearing these beads during the games next season. Steve may want to be buried with them, Needless to say we were both excited about his booty, I mean catch of beads. 
You may have noticed that there are no pictures of sadie. Don't worry, She's fine. She stayed in Slidell the whole weekend. We drove back in the evenings to let her inside. She's just a little baby.
All in all it was a great weekend. One of the highlights was meeting former Saints linebacker Pat Swilling. I think he and my Uncle Mark are best friends now. During the weekend I realized that there is nothing like the love and company of family. You can't get too much of it, but you can definately have enough of it!
