Fat Tuesday and Mardi Gras Parade

Most importantly I have to tell you that today I am getting a NEW dishwasher!! The best part is our builder is putting it in FREE!! And yes, I was actually nice about it.

Now on to the fun.

Last night we celebrated Fat Tuesday at Patton Creek in Hoover. There was a parade, beads, moon pies, candy, and friends. We stopped by the RealtySouth office at Patton Creek where we enjoyed some yummy treats and Jack, who was memorized by Mrs Pat's(she is the broker at that office) hat posed for a quick picture without crying!
Needless to say when it was time for the parade he started crying like crazy then suddenly he was out and I mean out. But how cute was he it that bogon?? Slept through beads flying through the air, the high school band drum line and everything. Our friends and my former boss(who I left to stay home with my wonderful baby and he still hates me to this day for leaving him and says it was like a bitter divorce, but he'll get over it!) Beau,his wife Ellen and Clayton were there. Beau was piling the beads on Clayton and I thought the poor thing would fall over! He was so adorable with all his Mardi Gras attire and I am sorry this picture does not do it justice.
