This past Sunday was the Krewe of Barkus and Meoux parade. We met up with Shana's Mom and Aunt to watch her and Sophie walk Alex and Cleo in the parade. They had lots of animals including a goat, snakes and ferrets (along with many dogs). Following the Krewe of Barkus and Meoux parade was the kids parade. Sadly there were not a whole lot of firetrucks. We ended up leaving part way through for other engagements. Perhaps I'll put pictures up soon.
We had a nice Fat Tuesday dinner, although the Fat Tuesday parade made it more difficult that originally planned. Due to the parade, we ended up at Saltgrass Steakhouse. Both of us decided on things to give up for the season of Lent. Jason is giving up soda and I'm giving up my fast food breakfasts. J felt bad because yesterday he ended up with a 24 hr bug and had to break his promise. Thankfully he's feeling better and should be able to get back on track.
This weekend we have Billy Elliot on Saturday followed by barcycle on Sunday. For those of you who aren't familiar with barcycle, it's essentially it's a pub crawl that takes place the Sunday before St Patrick's Day where people move from bar to bar on bikes. It's quite a sight to see, and quite entertaining once the alcohol sets in. Well, more to come later. It's about time to get ready for training tonight.
