Seafood Bonanza

Kristen's sister Becky came to town this past weekend and we had planned ahead of time to have a cookout or should I say seafood bonanza! We wanted to do clams on the grill and since we were in the seafood frame of mind we decided to throw together a small batch of shrimp boil too. All of the food was fantastic and we all ate our faces off, had seconds and then thirds. Here are a few pictures from the festivities...
I can not believe that Noey is old enough to chill out on a blanket in the backyard. She is the best baby ever and we love her to pieces.
Of course no one can replace this little lady in our hearts. We enjoy every minute with our god daughter Lindsey. She is quite a character now. She is a crawling machine and Kristen calls her Godzilla because she will crawl over any and everything in her path plus she makes this growl that is hysterical. Love you Linds!
The kids had fun as always!
Round 1: 100 little neck clams and stuffed mushrooms.
Becky and her friend John (aka The Candy Man) played all sorts of games with the kids.
Round 2: Shrimp Boil and fruit salads.
Give Leah an ear of corn and she is happy for quite some time.
Don't forget the kids dance sessions on their stage. Leah desperately wanted to be a big kid so we let her get up and dance.
Seth was teaching the kids the hand jive. Look out Broadway he is coming in a few years!
S'mores by the camp fire.
Thank you to everyone who made this night extra special. Thank you also to Becky for all of my new Maybelline makeup and to John for all of our candy. (Becky works for Maybelline in NYC and John works for Tops Candy in NYC) We are truly blessed!

This past weekend was I think was one of my favorites of the entire summer! We had a blast--the food,ohhhhh...the food--it was delish! Thanks for a great night! Today I started calling Linds Skinny G (aka skinny godzilla)--maybe I should call her Snooki with her bump in her hair and her tummy! lol

Thank you so much for including us on this super delicious food fest. It was a great start to a great weekend.

I LOVED watching Seth do all his Grease moves. That little guy is hilarious. Love him!
