Hit Parade

This year we celebrated Mardi Gras a little different-instead of watching the parade and catching beads, we were a part of the parade. My dad, my kids, and I truly had more fun throwing the beads! The parade was very family friendly and on a much smaller scale than most Mardi Gras parades. The local Mardi Gras Krewe du Lac allowed anyone to sign up to ride in the parade-all that was required was that you decorate your parade vehicle and throw somethin' mister! It's something you should try. Most communities host parades for numerous occasions.
