crawfish boil!

130 pounds of crawfish and 62 friends and neighbors joined us for the second annual crawfish boil on memorial day weekend.

with temperatures in the mid-90s, it was hot!
so mason cooled down with some juice

we packed out the front yard...

and the back.

with everyone including ex-ex-pats and their family

and some expert hot-dog-grillers.

tatiana and friends cooled off after the pool got a good scrub

these three peas in a pod took a ride

and parker found some watermelon.
mmmm... refreshing!

special thanks to these super-helpers (aka my parents)
who arrive early for set-up and cooking assistance

and yay! not many leftovers!
(and the closest my mom has ever gotten to crawfish!)
