Bunnies, Babies and Crawfish Oh My!

I know some of you might be tired of my new skills in blogging but here are some more pictures and a little commentary!

First of all we have begun the tradition of having a crawfish boil during the Easter weekend.  We have had it 3 years now and we hope to keep adding participants and family members.  The first year we had some of Emily's friends and their families and this year we added Grant's friends to the list.  Now it's very interesting to see how Texans deal with crawfish - some don't even want to try it and some dove right in!  Grant's friends all gave it a shot and I think they enjoyed it!

We were also very glad to have Al and Leah, Al, Stacy, Ely, Luke and Molly and Grandma also be able to spend the afternoon with us.  Ely ate quite a bit of crawfish as long as someone could peel them!  Glad to see he has some Louisiana blood in him!  The twins are now just over a year old and trying to walk - they are the best babies in the world and we love them soooo much, it's so much fun to have babies that I can play with and then give back.  But I will say I can wait a long time before it's time to be a grandmother - not happening anytime soon!!!  So here are some pictures -

Look how pretty - these are actually Louisiana Crawfish.

Oh No my Pretty there is no escaping the Pot!!
Scott and Emily have this boiling thing down to a science.

Now for the pictures of my babies and their friends and some pictures of Molly, Luke and Ely.

Now here are my babies with their friends:

Lindsey - Emily's friend with the escapee!

Now they are eating!  Scott did an excellent job they were very yummy!

Nick, Patty and Grant!












I think Grant and his friends enjoyed the party and at the end of the festivities they all hunted Easter eggs that Emily and Lindsey hid and each one went home with some junk and a Sonic gift card - except Grant who got bubbles!


We went to Al and Stacy's house on Easter after church and got some baby time!



Got to have the picture with Grandma!

Luke, Emily, Ely, Grandma, Grant and Molly!

Grandma and her boys - Scott and Al.










Emily and Molly and Grant and Luke getting ready for the hunt!


Girls against the Boys and Ely ready to see who could find the Golden Egg!


Well it turns out that Grant and Luke had the most prizes, Emily and Molly had the most eggs and Ely ended up with all of the loot because he has really nice cousins that give him whatever he wants!  So it all turned out great in the end.
