Franklin Parade

Franklin Parade

On Tuesday we got to be IN the Franklin parade, on the Four Corners fire truck. It was fun, and a new and different way to experience Mardi Gras! Riley threw out WAY too many necklaces at first, so we were out around halfway! But they enjoyed it, and other than me getting motion sickness from riding backwards, it was fun. It was a long parade, and the kids had a blast tossing beads. Then we said our goodbye's to cousin Ali, who didn't like that, and headed back to Leo and Linda's to pack up and head back to Texas.

I got some pictures of the houses in Franklin, they have some really pretty, old Plantation style homes that I love, with the big trees out front, with the moss hanging down, they are beautiful. This is the town where David was born, and a lot of his family still lives.
