Daddy went to Mardi Gras!

Jason just returned home from a fun filled week in Mississippi and Louisiana for work. He just happened to catch the last 2 days of Mardi Gras. Now being how this event has a fairly negative connotation, I wasn't very happy to hear that he went to the infamous parades. He assured me though, that they were far away from Bourbon Street (where the sinful, degrading and revolting things go on). The people he works with took him to 'family friendly' parades, where they throw fake flowers and plastic doggie doo instead of contraceptives and drugs. YAY! Aren't we glad for that! He did manage to bring home quite the gaggle of beads and fun things for the boys. They played in the beads for hours and Dawson totally enjoyed the fake pooh, he said it was Copper's. We tried taking a really great picture, but the weight of the beads kept both of them from standing upright.
We are so thankful Jason came home safe and sound... and he promises he didn't see anything (we're talking body parts here) that would take his mind from the pure and decent ways in which he lives.
