Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler!

Yep! Let the good times roll~ thats exactly how I'm feeling! Happy Mardi Gras and Fat Tuesday to you. We did not get to go to Mardi Gras this year, but we have definitely been celebrating Mardi Gras all week long:)

HERE IS HOW WE CELEBRATED:

First, we hung our new Mardi Gras wreath. This is the one I pined over from etsy and am obsessed with. I will probably leave it up for a while!
Second, we ordered cream cheese King Cakes straight from the Big Easy from the famous Haydel's Bakery for each of Adam's clients. This made a huge impression- especially since so many oilfield businessmen are from Louisiana.

Then, last Friday we saw our favorite Zydeco band, Keith Frank and the Soileau Zydeco Band, play live in Houston at the Hideout outside the rodeo. Did we go to see the rodeo first? No. Did we pay admission to Reliant just to see Keith Frank at the Hideout? Yes. It was well worth it and we had such blast with our besties Hayley and Garman.

Check out our two favorite Keith Frank songs below. So fun! Just makes me want to be on the lake in the summertime...




Last but certainly not least, we wrapped up our own Mardi Gras season tonight! I cooked my mom's recipe for New Orleans Red Beans and Rice and it was delish!

Happy Mardi Gras y'all!
