This is my first year since I've been in college to spend my Mardi Gras break at home. Every other year I have enjoyed celebrating in New Orleans, but I decided this year I'd take a break and head up to North Alabama. It's funny though because of course my family celebrates this holiday but today was just a regular Tuesday for everyone else here. Before college I didn't even realize how big of a deal Mardi Gras was or even how it was celebrated. All I knew was that it involved beads and king cake. This year I even brought home a praline pecan and a cream cheese king cake as well as some other little goodies :)
Here are a few pictures from our own little Mardi Gras celebration here at the Moody house
Mom made some delicious gumbo!!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Mardi Gras!! Now I just need to decide what I should give up for lent. What are you going to give up??
