Soulard Pet Parade

Today, we enjoyed our first experience at Soulard's Pet Parade. It's an annual tradition and part of the Mardi Gras celebrations. Apparently, it's the largest pet parade in the country. And, because it was a sunny, 65 degree day in January, it was probably bigger than ever! We had brunch and cake to celebrate the first birthday of my friend's son. Then, the party moved down the street to the parade route. We were surrounded by pets - dogs, turtles, ponies, and even a dinosaur! Sage and Kai had fun collecting beads and candy. It was a great way to spend the day with family and friends.






Waiting for more pets and beads!


The pet dinosaur!


Look at all those beads around Kai's neck!
