CCE Mardi Gras Celebration


Truett fell in love with "the pretty girl in the pink dress"-- he wanted his picture made with her, and they even danced 2 songs! The next morning Truett asked to go back to Owen's school to find that pretty girl so he could dance with her again. And Owen chimed in that if he danced with her, they must be boyfriend & girlfriend. Owen also said "I think she is a third grader". (way to go Truett-- going for the older women)



To celebrate 100 days of school, the PTC put on a Mardi Gras Celebration for all the kids at Owen's elementary school. There was a dance floor filled with balloons, music, games, and food. Everyone had a lot of fun. On the way home from the school, I got pulled over by Hutto's finest police officer for not using my blinker when turning right on red. It turned out great for the boys since they got Junior Policeman badges, and a backpack filled with pencils, pens, and a coloring book. Oh yeah-- and I got lucky and got off with just a warning.

The boys liked wearing the masks, but not the bead necklaces. Truett was so rowdy, I think he went thru at least 3 masks that night-- and they all had to be red. And the DJ was playing kiddie songs like "Old MacDonald", and Truett asked the DJ to play "Boom Boom Pow" and "We will rock you", so the place livened up after that!
Here is a video of Truett rocking out to We Will Rock You. He was so delirious and tired, I thought he might fall off the stage.
