Shrimp Boil Party



Steve has wanted to have a Shrimp/Crab Boil for a long time. Our Anniversery is Tuesday and he wanted to invite the Kids for a "Shrimp Boil"


Emily made the sign for the front door.
They came even on bikes!

It starts with a "Big Pot"




Then you add seasoning, potatoes, corn, onions and finally the Shrimp at the last.


You have to time each thing you add so they will all finish cooking at the same time.





Bottle water for beverage.





Cute little Alli, everyone loves to take a turn holding her.




Seth, Kate, Halle and Macey


Girls waiting for the dinner to cook.....




...and the BoysDinner Served



It all goes on the table. No plates!











Everyone loved it!!!





Except these three ladies (not fond of fish).




But Grandpa loved it and taught the kids how to eat crab.




Mitchell was really taken with the crab legs.




Now for desert. Laura tested some cupcake recipes for a party next week.



Joni made fabulous Strawberry Shortcake.



The evening ended with the kids finding scorpins with a black like.


The kids liked this a little too much.
