 Mardi Gras Party 2011
Every year some friends invite my wife and I to attend the invitation only 'Mystery and Fantasy Mardi Gras Party' here in Houston, and we always have a good time.
Before we get to the photos, I should explain 2 points;
1, The party is Black-tie or 'theme costume' only, This year's theme was "A Pharaoh's Fantasy".
And 2, The event is sponsored by a primarily gay Mardi Gras Krewe.
On to some photos;
Here's Shelley dancing in the Egyptian themed ball gown she made for the event.
I opted for black-tie, with my new jacket... (although I thought about my 'Stargate SG1' uniform...) There are usually 2 or 3 other guys in kilts, but I was it this year, except for a fellow who had a Utilikilt under his Egyptian robes.
Some outfits were pretty fancy!
Moses !
Howard Carter ??
Here's our good friend Neil, who invites us every year.
There was a pretty big crowd!
