SLIDELL, La. (Monday, Feb. 23, 2009) - Weeks of parades and Carnival balls reach a climax on Tuesday when residents across Southeast Louisiana hit the streets to celebrate Mardi Gras 2009.
My trip to Slidell, which began on Friday, Feb. 13, 2009, also reaches a climax when I take my family to Mardi Gras - including my two children for the first time. They will enjoy the day in much the same way I did as a child: dressed in full costume, watching parades and catching beads.
On Saturday, Feb. 21, I hit the streets of downtown New Orleans riding in the Krewe of Endymion's annual parade. Below is a short slide show/photo gallery fro the past few days; I'll have more photos after Mardi Gras.
A little about Mississippi, a little about Louisiana, a little about New Orleans and A LOT about our adoption story. This blog and our adoption story is dedicated to Camryn and Matthew Cassreino so that you both will know. Copyright 2021 by Terry R. Cassreino
