Daughter's Mardi Gras

All last week up until Mardi Gras Day (well part of the day) my daughter spent time with her boyfriend and their friends, along with my neighbors. Yes, they had ADULT supervision!

The first night that they went, which I cannot remember what night it was. Thursday or Friday of last week, the parents go to meet up with the kids and they cannot find their truck. Of course, the kids laugh it off saying the parents are too drunk and do not remember where they parked. They search a LONG time for the truck and GUESS WHAT?? The truck is stolen. YEP, STOLEN!! Now, this truck isn't a junky truck. Why would someone want that. This is a souped up 40K truck that has his wife's purse with all of her identification in it, their marraige license (they are going on a cruise and it was in the door)money under the mat (because he hides money from his wife there lol) and their other car keys with house keys on the ring! WOW how nice! The people not only get the truck...they get to use the debit and credit cards and they know your address and have your house keys! WOW! They also have your other car key so that they can steal that one too! SO far, the truck has still not been found! So that started the jinx of Mardi Gras for them.....it gets better!

They slept outside for one parade with their tent. Well, at 2 AM the police come by them and wake them up....for what you ask??? Their tent was too dark. YEP....at 2 AM your tent is too dark because you are sleeping. SO, the cop gave them a TENT TICKET! WHAT IN THE HELL??? So, they have to pay $50.00 because the tent was too dark...OKKK!!! Dumbest thing I have ever heard. WAIT....it gets better!

Endymion night they all head out for the ball. They get there and my neighbor's husband is on a float, so the are not leaving until he gets off of his float of course. His wife goes home because she forgot something. Why she left, I have no clue.

She gets home only to realize that she has no keys to get in their house. She only had her son's phone with NO known phone numbers for HELP. She ends up calling our other neighbor, who does not know directions well at all!

She gets directions on how to get back to the Superdome, the totally WRONG way! She ended up in a REALLY BAD AREA and was out of gas. GREAT!!! At least she was near a gas station AND a cop!!!! The cop watched her until she left!

THEN........she finally made it back to the Superdome...and the parade was held up because someone had a heart attack DURING his route! All of the teens were swamped with beads GALORE and had had enough. Well, not the girls lol, they were still pumping. The husband got off of the float and was TOTALLY SOBER....so he could have cared less if he stayed or not. SO.....they all ended up coming home for 1 AM instead of 4 AM! WOW!! WHAT A NIGHT!!!!

Also, one guy was getting off of a float and the tractor behind him did not see him getting off, and he ran over him, killing him. Come to find out the guy on the tractor was that guys brother! Isn't that awful? SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!

Our Mardi Gras Day and pics up next....LATER...after my 3 yr olds Dr's appointment!
