Another Crawfish Boil

Last weekend our little group had our 3rd crawfish boil of the season. The crawfish along with all of the fixings were so good! We spent most of the night fighting flies! I've never seen so many flies in one place in my life! All of the kids had a good time. By the end of the night they were all covered in red dirt and mud. But, who cares...they had a blast making dirt pies and playing with crawfish.


It is so nice to have friends to get-together and have a good time with. All of the kids are close to the same age and love playing together. Most of them are girls. Besides my boys, there is only one other little boy. Blaine loves getting to play with him. They are only a few months apart in age.


The men spend the night getting caught up on all of the gossip while cooking. I guess it's their night! A few of them get together and go pick up the crawfish and all of the groceries. They even do all of the cooking and buy cupcakes for dessert! When everything gets ready they hit the crawfish table to endulge! Did I mention that they love everything spicy HOT. They coat everything with Tonys. The kids (as well as us women) can hardly eat the corn, mushrooms, and potatoes and have to stick with the hot dogs and chicken that was grilled for us. The men even clean most of the mess up!


While the men are cooking, the women get to look after the kids. Sometimes that hard for me because Judd is usually wide open! His favorite part is getting in the mud and just sitting down! We enjoy discussing the various thing going on in our lives. Here are a few pictures of the night.

Which one should we pick up? (Blaine, Ryleigh, and Jacob)


Let's put our heads together!

I got one!


Judd and all the girls! He's not sure what to think!

I love this picture of Emma!

Now with rocks!

See how nasty they all are? We went straight to the bathtub when we got home!
