It certainly has been a while since I’ve managed to post anything but things have been so busy lately that I just haven’t been able to spend any time making updates. In fact in the past two months we really haven’t even taken any pictures so I haven’t been able to fake like I’m keeping the site updated by posting pictures. Here’s a quick run down of the last couple of weeks.

Jen and the kids got to take a trip to New Orleans for Mardi Gras but it happened to fall on the same day that I needed to be at work for yearly maintenance activities so guess what, I didn’t get to go. I know Alex had a great time because he would keep me up to date on all the exciting stuff by giving me call from the parades, called me waiting for parades, or calling me on his way home from the parades making sure I knew about all the cool throws he caught.

“Dad, you’ll never guess what. We caught FIVE footballs and you know who we saw? Sean Payton!” He was so excited half the time he didn’t know what he wanted to tell me next.

Andrew had a good time too and by the end of it all he started to figure out how to hold out his hands in the “Throw me something mister!” position. They only came home with a small fraction of the beads they caught but Andrew still loves to put them on and parade around the house.

I think it’s now official that Alex has gone to more Mardi Gras parades then I have. Oh well, I guess there’s always next year.
