Why You Should Never Go Out of Town During Mardi Gras

Our friends Krista & Michael have been in Seattle for too long. They missed Mardi Gras, so we thought we'd bring a bit of Fat Tuesday spirit to welcome them home.

They are going to mad when they discover that they even have beads hidden under their covers...After beading every room in their rather large house, we hit up Cracker Barrell for some grub (only becuase Moe's closed early...I was so sad). But, there's nothing like lots o' biscuits and jelly to celebrate Fat Tuesday.
Alarming side note: When Justin and Jonathan went to break into their house IN THE BROAD DAYLIGHT, noone said anything. There was a construction crew across the street who watched the whole thing. I thought for sure the police would be called when Jonathan went back to the truck to get his pry bar. Nope. Small towns...so trusting.

Emily, That is so funny!!! Krista will probably get a good laugh out of it. Ask her about the time when we lived in the brick house in Auburn and some guys filled her and Jennys room full of packing peanuts!!! That was a MESS!!! Have a great day!

This is great! very nicely done!

I did go out on Super Tuesday - it was fun to go out on a school night again - just like the old days, right EM?

Reminds me of a time where we went and wrecked havoc on our good friends down the street while they were gone. You can see the fruit of our labor here. http://aturnbull.blogspot.com/2007/03/break-in-at-eiland-house.html

Ya'll must be close!

I can't believe Honey across the street didn't call the cops!! It was fun walking through the doors, it was like we never missed Mardi Gras!!

When Matt lived in a two-story apt. in Mobile, his friends from B'ham rearranged his furniture. They put his bedroom furniture in the den and his den furniture upstairs in his bedroom. Funny stuff

That is hilarious!!!! And at least the reason no one called the cops is because small towns are so trusting. Big towns (i.e. Bham) just don't care. :) Miss you!
