It's Fat Tuesday!




Since Kelsey was still trying to get better Dustin stayed home with her and the rest of us braved downtown Biloxi for their Mardi Gras parade. The kids caught so many fun things! We had lots of fun, but public events sure bring out the wierdies! I joked that we sat near the parole section. Luckily we were seated with some really great grandmas and we had a nice time chatting with them while they offered the kids food, gum, and candy! We didn't stay for the whole thing. It's actually teo parades back to back and we left shortly after the second one started. We had a scary moment when some Latino men tried to make us pay them because we parked in an empty city lot. They had blocked people in and were extorting money out of them. I didn't back down. We called the police when one man sat on the hood of our van. We stayed on the phone with the police until police were on their way and they let us leave. Sorry pal, that doesn't work with me!
