Ida, Se bon! Se bon!
You added the crawfish then “BAM” you kicked it up a notch with the Cajun spices. We all appreciated the authentic New Orleans Carnival. It was educational learning about the traditions of this great American festival. From the traditional food, music and dance, the green, purple and gold colors, the costumes, the decorations to the gifts and beads we all had a great time. Thank you and your sisters for the Mardi Gras party, it was a great idea and a fun event!

Hello Neighbors and Friends,
I just wanted to extend a very big "Thank you!" to Ida and her family as well as our Block Watch members for hosting the Mardi Gras Block Party.That was such a great time! Your hospitality is greatly appreciated! It was quite the buzz! We had several people who had just come through the neighbor comment on what a great idea it was. So, thank you all for making that happen.
All the best,

Ida, We all should be thanking you again and again and again for the wonderful experience. The food was FANTASTIC and you and your family were the perfect host and hostesses! I was so glad the weather cleared and we could enjoy the late afternoon together. For the first time since I moved to Phoenix I feel like I have at least a few friends outside of work! You guys made my day – even if I did lock myself out of my house! LOL

Congratulations on such a great event, sorry I could not attend. I have had a really bad sinus infection and finally got in to see my Doctor and have meds now, hope I can kick this pretty soon, being in a fog and this cough is a real pain. Thanks so much for sharing the photos.

Thank you Ida and Family! It was a wonderful Mardi Gras party! Brought back some memories of Mardi Gras' I had attended years ago. The food was delicious too!
