Mo Betta in Mobile

A promise is a promise, and I snapped a few photos to commemorate my very first Mardi Gras experience in Mobile, Alabama. (the post title comes from a fabulously tacky shirt I purchased for the occasion that reads, "Mardi Gras is Mo Betta in Mobile")

Proving Mardi Gras really is mo betta in Mobile.

Mardi Gras: Mobile Style

It's official. My bag is packed, my dress is purchased, and I'm counting down the hours until I head South to celebrate Mardi Gras for the first time in Mobile, Alabama. I'm so stinking excited for the parades, floats, and masks, not to mention the ball on Saturday night. every girl's fairy tale, right?

Excuse me for a few days while I'm reveling in the festivities and all that Mobile has to offer. I'll post a full report upon my return.
