Can you believe 12th Night is coming up Saturday, January 7th?!?! It's an early Mardi Gras season and a quick one at that. Check out the latest calendar from Captain of Captains, Doug Kochenderfer!
As you know, my husband and I are involved in Mardi Gras here in the SBC and are personally members of the Krewe of Atlas where we serve as the Duke and Duchess of Lagniappe IV. We're proud of our Krewe and love our fellow Royalty, and with that being said, when the Queen Ruth Grafton speaks, we listen!!!
I'm so excited for this! Originally, Stifler was slated to make this appearance, but he over scheduled, and baby, I got tapped in!
Dang! Not too long ago I posted about this event but it has been postponed til January. Here's the message I received:
Get your drink on for a good cause with the Krewe of Atlas... help raise funds for the dog park at Hamel's Memorial Park Saturday, November 5th 7-10pm at the Barnwell Center. Check this out... all of the beer and wines you'll be tasting feature an animal on the label!
In their traditional, non-traditional way, the Krewe of Atlas revealed their royalty for the upcoming 2012 Mardi Gras season with much fun and frivolity Saturday night at the American Legion in Shreveport. The Krewe of Atlas, known for it's diversity, hosted the Island of Shipwrecked Fools themed Coronation, where yours truly was crowned the Duchess of Lagniappe IV along hubby Keith, who isn't a duchess of course, he's the Duke of Lagniappe IV... Even though he looks quite nice in eyeliner!
Ain't no party like an Atlas party and the Krewe of Atlas is going to be throwing down tomorrow night starting at 7pm at the American Legion. The Royalty Presentation begins at 8pm!
Actress Halle Berry is recovering after breaking her foot while shooting a movie in Spain.
Until I got involved with Mardi Gras locally, I didn't know there were literally events year round! Get in the Mardi Gras spirit and Let The Good Times Roll at any of these local events!
I had a BLAST at the Gemini Coronation this past Saturday night even though it was kinda of bittersweet because my brother-on-law passed on the Captain-ship (sp??) of Gemini. Both he and his lovely wife Jolene did an amazing job for the Krewe in the past year.
