One of our exciting summer adventures involved the Crosby Bar-B-Que cookoff. This was a great way to kick off summer time. This event precedes the Crosby livestock show and rodeo. It was fun to be a part of this event.
Todd was on a cooking team with some of our friends. They cooked chicken, brisket, ribs, fajitas,margaritas, and a dessert. (There is probably something I am leaving out)
They did great... Didn't win first but placed in all categories. The food was great and getting to hang out with friends was even better.
Kaelin loved it. She felt like she was really part of something special. She kept trying to help with everything.
Kaelin and Carson hanging out after a trip to the carnival (I am sure that blowup wand cost me about thirty dollars :( )
This was the setup... we did a tropical theme (leftover decor from Kaelin's birthday party)
Aunt Debbie and Uncle Truman came out to eat some food and take Macie home (It was about 100 degrees, so Macie was not really liking it too much--- seeing as she can't even eat the food)
Part of the secret recipe... don't look too closely or I might give it away
Another exciting aspect of the weekend involved getting to watch a parade (Crosby has a parade for EVERYTHING). We were a little late for the parade, so we thought we would just stand near the end, which turned out to be the best spot EVER... all of the floats had left over candy, so rather than throwing a piece or two to the kids, they just threw the entire bag. The kids ended up with about 10 pounds of candy (which equates to about 1000 dollars in dental bills).
