Krewe of Thoth

My apologies for not posting anything last week. Kenny and I, along with 8 of our friends, were on a fabulous ski vacation in Colorado from Monday to Sunday. We had a fantastic time, and Riley was well-looked after by Nola and Nopsi while we were gone. A recap of our trip, as well as details on Riley’s adventures, will be coming up a little later this week!

Kenny and I took Riley-bean out to another parade the Sunday before Mardi Gras. Our friend Scott rides in Thoth, which also happens to pass very close to his house, so we met up with some friends and family a couple of hours before the parade rolled and enjoyed the day.

   

Riley was completely enamored with Elisabeth (a.k.a. Eli McF, in town from North Carolina for a week); it was so cute to watch their interaction! He totally flirted with her all afternoon.

   

 

Although it was a nice day and good to spend time with everyone, we decided to leave early on account of having to get home to pack for our trip. However, we got stuck in gridlock traffic for THREE HOURS. Not fun, not fun at all. We eventually made it home, fed the boy, and managed to get all of our packing done before 10pm.

Lesson learned: DON’T PARK INSIDE THE PARADE ROUTE!!!
