Crawfish and Easter Pizza

We packed up our bags and pup and headed to Katy this weekend. Life in the 'burbs is different, but fun too! We had a huge crawfish boil out at Remko's house. These are a bunch of Katy guys who have known each other WAY too long. We all pitched in to throw the party for Charlie and Andrea. They are moving to Cleveland! We're going to be so sad, so will Shelby. She actually cried when she saw their golden retriever, Beanz. She loves him. Here's Andrea and I before it all got crazy...

Jill and Rob showed up with SUCH awesome cupcakes! I asked Jill if she'd make some, and she went to TOWN! They are even Easter themed.

Shelby and Titus lovin' the outdoors and big trucks... and speaking of big trucks, it was getting a little hot, so the guys decided to make a TRUCK POOL. Great idea. 'Burbs.

Look, you can cool off AND drive to a friend's house....so convinient. They are probably reliving times at Katy High and this very moment.

Here's Josh doing what he does best. For those of us who are not all about peeling little crawdads, he made chicken and hot dogs.

Here's Blake, Ryan, Charlie, Remko, Josh, Brian and Daniel.

Daniel, you hot? Don't worry, we'll pull up the pool. Sorry, the pups are hot too!

These are the happy go lucky day time photos. After over 12 hours of sun and beer...things got a little out of hand. So, as you can imagine...the keg was floated...more beer was bought, beer pong tournaments, fist fights, tears...but the friendships are still entact. It was a glorious night in Katy. Hope to do it again...if we're invited back.

EASTER SUNDAY!!

We woke up the next day, had to pull it together from the fun night before, and headed to our 3 Easter visits. We headed to Sealy and had a great meal with Josh's dad's side. They are sweet country folk who think I'm "fancy" because I have a Coach purse and once wore a scarf.

Next we headed to Josh's Godparents, another Nowak clan. We were very excited to see everyone, Donnie, Carolyn, Barb, Speedy, etc...and Kathleen! She and her hubby George live in London, where we stayed last year. They said they are going to get a 'mini pig' as a pet. It's the cool thing over there. Puppies are so last year.

Finally we ended at Josh's mom's house where the Easter pizza comes into play. Josh's mom, Cheryl married Angelo who used to own a NY style pizzaria! He's actually from New York so his hand-made pizza are legit and awesome. I'm so happy they let us bypass the usual Easter meals, I've been wanting his pizza for a LONG TIME! He even taught me a thing or two...

The pizza was amazing and the weekend was great. Hope you had a great Easter, too!!
