Crawfish Boil

Today we went to a crawfish boil sponsored by David's company.
Those crawfish were huge and fiesty!  Grace wouldn't go near them.
They were thrown into a big pot with potatoes, corn, lemons, and seasonings.  The crawfish must have sensed what was coming because they tried their best to make a getaway!
It didn't take long before the first batch was cooked and ready to eat!
People started gathering around the table ready to eat, eat, eat!
Those crawfish were so yummy and plentiful.  They cooked 120 pounds of crawfish!  It was nightfall before it was all cooked.
Grace ate a hotdog instead of the crawfish.
And some chocolate cake.  She loves chocolate cake.
And what's an outdoor party in the South without sweet juicy watermelon?
The kids had a lot of fun playing on the inflatable water slide. 
Grace particularly liked the "tunn-uh" (tunnel) and water cannon.
Meanwhile, David kept an eye on work. 
(Not really.  This was the only time I saw him playing with his phone).
After everyone ate as much crawfish as they could hold, Rebekah and Jeff brought out the 4wheeler and let everyone take it out for a few spins.  Grace didn't want to get off!
Much too soon, the sun began to set and it was time to go home.  We can't wait until next year's party!
