Just a quick update of today's activities.  Up early for beignet at Cafe Dumond.  Then Renee' and I went on a walking tour of the Garden District.  (Lovely!)  We joined the boys for lunch, along with Gina, at a local eatery where Renee' and I had po'boy sandwiches.

Then we hit the school parade where Samantha, Rachel and Jared were in "floats" (wagons) pulled by "upper classmen" (Sixth graders).  Mr. Joe and Miz Barbara were there and we had a grand time catching beads from the kids.

We took a Joe Sensebe tour home, passing by Lake Ponchetrain and the parade route the boys will take tomorrow.  Off to dinner now.

Who is the Mardi Gras?
