Last weekend Tim and I decided at the last moment to head down to Mobile for one of the daytime Mardi Gras parades. So we loaded up the camera gear into the car and headed down to have a great day in Mobile. Here are a few of the photographs we took. Hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed taking them.

| Kids and dogs alike were waiting patiently for the start of the parade. |
 |
| Lots of vendors were out helping the crowd get into a festive spirit. |
 |
| The theme for this parade was Reality TV. Can you guess the float shows? |
 |
| The parade had lots of different types of music and dancing. This little girl was strutting her stuff and working that umbrella! |
 |
| Characters were definitely not in short supply at this event! |
 |
| It seems like everyone in Mobile showed up today. Even the Marines were out getting into the Mardi Gras spirit. |
 |
| There was something for everyone in Mobile that day. I even came away with a Valentine bear, Pirates of the Caribbean DVD, Moon Pie, and LOTS of beads. Can't wait until next year. Maybe we will try a night time parade. What do you think? What are some of your best Mardi Gras memories? (Please keep this kid friendly) |
