Family visit and Crawfish boil

Last weekend we had the special treat of both of our brothers coming home for the weekend. Justin was in with his girlfriend from Colorado, Jordyn, and he was picking up a truck for work and driving it back. Chris (Troy's brother who used to live here) was in town looking for a job because he plans on moving back after this semester in LA. It was fun having so much family in and we got together a lot at my mom's for dinners and game nights. I had to get as much time with Bubbi as I could b/c I know that once his house is official and he moves I'm never going to see him again! haha:) Colorado is the perfect place for him though and I am so proud of him, and thank goodness his house has 5 br, means we have plenty of space for nice long visits:) get ready Bubbi!! While enjoying game night a slight reference came about a crawfish boil and Troy ran with the idea and we had made it happen by the next day which is pretty impressive in Plano to find live crawfish at the drop of a hat but we now know of a place that seems to have great prices on it all season and they had 70 bags that weekend just waiting to be sold so there we went to have yet another boil for the season. Jordyn tried her first crawfish...only one...but she tried it. She even stuck one her mouth for a picture, go with it girl! Azlyn and Asher love crawfish now and we peel the tails and just keep it coming for them. I guess we were too slow at one point and Asher ripped off the tail and just started taking bites...then he ripped open the head to eat that too. That boy isn't afraid of anything! We had a great time with all the family that weekend, loved meeting Jordyn and I tore it up on game night taking first place and beating everyone at the new game Uncle David had brought over:) Fun times!

Here are just a handful of pictures from the day, don't forget to visit our picture site http://doucetslittlemoments.shutterfly.com/ to see them all!

Doesn't even know what's about to happen to him poor little guy:)
