Ben accepting the proclamation naming Feb 6, 2010 "Pirate Ben Sarrat" day in Jefferson Parish!
Wow! We had such a great day today. Ben got to ride in Choctaw instead of Alla - they moved our float up! It was so much fun. Ben had a great time - he got a little tired the last half hour but he was up throwing treasures for about 1 1/2 hours (crazy amount of energy for him!). It was a nice day and the people on the float were so sweet about making sure he was having fun and comfortable. The float stopped at 2 reviewing stands...at the first they
announced Ben was their special guest and because of his
courageous fight they were naming Feb 6, 2010 "Pirate Ben
Sarrat" day - in Jefferson Parish!! How cool is that we got a
proclamation and everything! At the second reviewing stand in Gretna they made him an official Gretna Policeman he got a badge which he has already started arresting people with. He had
alot of questions about when he used which badge - Gretna Police vs his State Trooper Badge!! What a great day made possible by
Councilman Chris Roberts from Jefferson Parish!!!! Thank you Chris he had an amazing time - and he wants to know if they are going to throw a parade for him every year on "his day" - I told him I would see what we could do!
HaHa!
So tomorrow is the BIG GAME!!! Ben is going to rest up till the game so he has plenty of energy to watch the game and bring them luck!!
Hope you enjoy the pictures!
GEAUX SAINTS!!!!!

This is the get well chain he got from his school, each link is a special message from each child at the school! He loves it!

Thanks so much for posting so quickly. I have been thinking of Ben all day. It was so cold. I was certainly hoping he got to be in the parade.
So he has two badges and a special day? What an amazing boy.
What a great day all around.
We are thinking of you.

Ben,
What an awesome day. I was thinking about you all day and hoping it was not be to cold for you. Looks like you had a fabulous time . It it pretty cool to have a Ben Sarrat day. A very Special Thank you to Councilman Chris Roberts, What a role model.
Ben, I want to know how long it took you to read all those messages on your chain. I bet if laid it out on the street , it would reach all the way to your school. Have a beautiful day tomorrow, and we have a lot of friends cheering for your buddy "B" tomorrow. Sorry, don't know how you spell it.
Don't eat to much tomorrow and we will be thinking of you and we love you all.

nice work with all the arresting, but i hope you deputized that little brother of yours, he is just the kind of dude that needs a badge (but not a gun, please not a gun). go saints!
