Holy moly - this is the most loot we've gotten at a Mobile parade! Granted this was 3 different parades in the space of 1 hour, compared to Endymion in New Orleans which is 1 parade lasting upwards of 3 hours. But last year we had floats zooming by us with only a couple of riders hanging on and nothing being thrown. Drew said this year maybe they'd have Nascar pulling the floats.
And we finally figured out what the colorful tubes of paper are that they throw. You break off each color and blow through it and out fly beautiful streamers - so fun to cover your brother with...so fun to clean up later.
Next weekend - New Orleans Mardi Gras and the wearing of the homemade dress - cross your fingers...

Man! Y'all racked up! We received our annual box of Mardi Gras goodies from Queen Jeanne today....very exciting! Friday I'll run around my office tossing beads and moonpies at my co-workers. Heh,heh,heh........
Just make sure your coworkers know to keep their shirts down - that's only acceptable in New Orleans, you know! (That's called "racking up" - heehee - I just made that up. In my case it's "boning up.")
BAHAHA!!!! NO YOU DIDN'T!
