Mardi Gras Lovin'

I know Mardi Gras is officially over, but I'm gonna keep thinking about it until next week because it's such a wonderful time of year.



I love the big, elaborate floats that are amazing works of art in themselves.  


I love that face painting is accepted and encouraged at Mardi Gras time.  After doing a little face paint two days in a row, I wondered (just like a little kid) that really, why shouldn't face painting be acceptable all the time?  I mean, not on the job or at school, but whenever you go out to a concert?  Why not jazz up your outfit with a little face paint?  I've decided to try and bring this tradition back.  (Or would I be creating it?)


And I love that it's totally acceptable for adults to stand on ladders and scream for beads.  All in all, Mardi Gras is the best time to act like a big kid.
