On Friday we attended my boss’s annual Crawfish Boil for the first time as a family of 3! I have been attending for years, but this time it was so different watching the excitement through Hallie’s eyes! Let me give you a bit of a background story of how I met this family. We met at the preschool I taught at years ago. Cleo, the oldest of my girls was 2 and Sadie wasn’t even born yet! Cleo is now almost 12 and Sadie just turned 8! I have now been their afternoon/summer nanny on and off for about 7 years. The coolest part of the crawfish boil each year is seeing how the kids have changed from year to year! Every year, some of Cleo’s little preschool classmates come. Those little babies that I had as 2, 3 and 4 year olds have sure grown up! This year was a great one! Until next year!

Love the idea of a crawfish race! I used to go to a crawfish boil every summer but we never had a race!

That looks like so. much. fun!!! I have never had crawfish before, but I would love to try. Also, how much fun seeing all the littles you used to teach all grown up. I used to baby sit a lot, and am still friends with a few of the families. The ones I used to babysit at 4 years old, are now old enough to drink! Crazy…..
