Happy Mardi Gras Day!
For the third year, I hosted a Mardi Gras celebration with my MOMS Club. I enjoy sharing this New Orleans tradition with my Maryland friends!
The party favors were made...
And someone was very excited about eating king cake with her friends! I made a cream cheese filled, with cream cheese icing. Mmmm...
Molly welcomed everyone at the door saying, "Happy Mardi Gras Day!" The kids decorated their own king's crowns...

then donned their hats and enjoyed a piece of cake.
Each child left with Mardi Gras beads and a bag of cookies. I hope I lived up the the hype, as according to one friend, "It's the best event of the year!" I had to laugh when another friend said she'd been waiting years to come and was "starting to feel like [she] should camp out for tickets!"

The cookies look amazing and looks like you all had a grand time…fun!
