Non-Stop Fun...
This weekend started off and ended with a BANG!!! We had one of the best weekends in a long time. Friday after school, Audrey packed her suitcase for an overnight slumber with her "BFF" Margaret Catherine. This was the first time she stayed the night with a friend. I kept waiting for the phone call to come get her, but to my delight it never came.

Ward and I took advantage of her night away and decided to make Friday our date night. We went to Chantilly's and danced the night away.

Saturday I expected Audrey to come home early, but instead she stayed and played with Margaret Catherine until we picked her up at 3:00 pm. Even then she wasn't ready to come home. She said the two of them had the best time. They started their night with watching Margaret cheer for her basketball team. They then had pizza and a movie, and made beaded necklaces.

After we picked her up, we went home to get ready for our first Mardi Gras parade of the year. We had so much fun....Audrey is really getting into the spirit of things. She yells her little head off for candy, trinkets, moon pies, and most importly beads . When the parade ended we met my sister and her family at Wings for dinner.

Sunday the three of us went to The Whistle Stop for breakfast. We then went driving around and ended up at the Explorium. We played with all the exhibits and watched the I-MAX movie about sharks.

I picked up take out from Dreamland and we got ready for the Super Bowl. The Giants won the game by 4 points over the Patriots.

All and all, we had a great weekend as a family. I love Ward and Audrey with all my heart, and I feel the blessings God has granted me.
