St. Paddy's Celebration

On Saturday, March 15th, Josh and Carrie had a family friendly St. Paddy's Day celebration at their house in Dallas.  They live really close to lower Greenville where all of the action usually is, and they went ALL OUT for this party!  All the kids had goodie bags, there were food and drinks a plenty, a bounce house, sidewalk chalk, and bubbles for the kids, and my favorite part--a crawfish boil!  


We all sported our green!  Even me with my big, green, 36 weeks pregnant belly!

Our cute leprechaun!
 



The weather was not ideal--lots of rain and humidity, but we made the best of it!  I felt so badly for Josh and Carrie because people were going in and out with muddy, wet feet and their poor floors and rugs were taking a beating.  I finally just took Lane's shoes off and rolled his pants up, and he still went through 3 pairs of pants and 2 shirts while we were there because of the mud and rain.  

He loved jumping in the bounce house!





Playing with sidewalk chalk


And he loved the bubbles in his gift bag from Carrie!






Lane was pretty intrigued by the crawfish!  Josh showed him the claws and let one pinch his own finger so Lane could see.  As he was saying "It doesn't hurt" that thing clamped on and drew blood from poor Josh's finger.  Lol!
 


They can't pinch any more!!  Josh did a fantastic job on the boil.  I have only had crawfish one other time and liked it, but this time I loved it!  The potatoes and corn were so tasty and the crawfish were really well seasoned.  Well done, Biscuit!


Daddy and Lane


There were quite a few other children there, but Lane had the most fun with Saylor Grae.  She is Abby and Aaron's daughter.  (Carrie went to high school with Abby and Aaron.)


They are only a few months apart and get along really well.  He played with her at Gage's birthday party in February and back in July for the Bays' 4th of July party.  They are so cute together!


One last pic before this guy fell asleep and we headed home!

A big thanks to the Bays for their awesome hospitality!  We had a great time!

Abigail Comes to Austin!

We had a fun visit with the Bays family back in September.  They came in town so that Josh and Kyle could go to the UT/Ole Miss game.  I was happy that they brought their sweet baby, Abigail!  Carrie and I had some girl time while the guys golfed and went to the game, and I enjoyed loving on baby A! 

They arrived early Saturday morning, so we all went to brunch at Z Tejas downtown.  We dressed the kiddos up in their Texas gear and they looked so cute!  The guys left to play golf and Carrie and I took the kids to do a little shopping at the Hill Country Galleria.  We headed back to the house for naps and then went out to eat for dinner at a local Mexican restaurant.  The guys had fun at the game, even though it was a loss.  I took some pictures of Abigail looking cute in her Longhorn smocked dress:






Proud Daddy, Josh

Two cute fans!


An attempt at a good pic of the guys and their offspring before they left for the game.

Sunday morning we met our friends, the Flemings, at Jack Allen's for another brunch.  Carrie and Josh left that afternoon, so it was a short visit!  We had fun Josh and Carrie!!
