Scenes From Our Weekend | Mardi Gras + Hubby’s Birthday

Happy Fat Tuesday, Friends!

We had a lot of plans going into this weekend because it was Mardi Gras and Matt’s birthday on Sunday!  Friday night we were meeting some friends out to dinner, but about 4pm on Friday I had to take the kids to the pediatrician.  I thought Madelyn might have an ear infection, but she ended up fine and we learned that Brody had the hand, foot, and mouth virus.  So we cancelled our plans for Friday night 🙁

Saturday was Mardi Gras day and instead of being able to take the kids with us for a bit, we had to leave them home with Grammy while we rode on the float!  Mardi Gras is pretty big here (nothing like New Orleans), but we have a couple of parades for families to enjoy.  Our company has been participating the parades for many years, so I’ve grown up doing it.

Sunday was Matt’s birthday and ended up being a pretty quiet one since we had a sick baby.  Hand, Foot and Mouth is very contagious and I was worried about the rest of us getting it.  Brody’s case has been really mild so far, but I still ended up with it.  Mine is mild too (just in my throat), but it still hurts!

We went and grabbed a nice dinner that night to celebrate and then came home to the kids to celebrate with cake!  It was a pretty quiet birthday, but nice to enjoy time with just the family.  

I got to break out my brand new shoes that I’m obsessed with.  How cute are these hot pink espadrilles??  I love them!!!
