Mardi Gras


February 26th, 2010

The kids enjoyed a small Mardi Gras celebration last week. I made a super yummy king cake and the kids made some pretty cool masks. We even had jambalaya for dinner and the kids paraded around the living room with their masks. Well, all but Tyghe. He fell asleep late in the afternoon and missed it all.

I took Ada on a date last week to see Sleeping Beauty (ballet) and she looked so cute, so we had to snap a few pics. She’s really quite the poser.

I’ve also been busy lately crocheting up a couple more blankets for new babies. Since the last one just went out in the mail today, I don’t want to post them here and spoil the surprise. You can see all of the blankets I’ve made here. These last two were definitely more intricate than most of the others I’ve made. I was very pleased with how they turned out though, and hope the recipients enjoy them as well.
