Our Crazy Life: Crawfish & Showers

Yesterday was a very, very busy day. Well....actually my busyness started on Friday. I took that day off, woke up at 3:30 am and drove to Lake Charles, Louisiana. There my dad was waiting with Ms. Bobbi at the Isle of Capri and he unloaded 115 pounds of crawfish to me. We ate some breakfast and then it was back on the road for me where I drove right back to College Station. The rest of the day was busy preparing for Saturday.

Saturday started off with a lovely brunch and shower for Sarah! We had a good time and she got tons of cool gifts for their baby which I call Jack-Jack. I unfortunately did not have my camera available so there are no pics of that, but she looked very lovely and pregnant in a gorgeous chocolate brown dress with lots of polka dots in different colors.

After that was over, it was go time trying to get everything ready for our crawfish boil. There were around 40-45 adults plus a handful of kids around. By the end of the day there were only a few pounds of crawfish uneaten, but thanks to Trisha, John, Stacy, Susan and Rick, we peeled those leftovers for me to use later. All in all, it was a very successfull, yet tiring day! Luckily everyone was gone by around 8ish so we got to relax a little and go to bed early. I was pooped.

Among the guests were Grandma and Grandpa James. They just got back from Hawaii the day before. They had an Easter basket for Abby which included some cute little outfits in 12 months, which we need because that Chunky of a Monkey Abby is already wearing some 12 month clothes and she is only 7 months! Abby also had a stuffed bunny along with a book and onesie from Hawaii. This morning the Easter Bunny brought her several books and a couple of toys :).
