We didn't really do anything during the morning, but we knew we had to get to the grocery store so we can prepare for Saturday's cookout...we were the whole family over! Rylan got a bath and was posing for me!
Then we tried on Rylan's new shoes...Aunt Erica got Rylan the cutest pair of blue crocs! And he was trying to figure out "what are these things!"
Then we had him pose with Bob!
We got to Wal-Mart around 3pm and did our grocery shopping. We decided to get corn on the cob and I got Erin to shuck some corn! Dustin called and didn't believe it so he asked me to get a picture of it!
And this is Rylan being so good while we were shucking the corn!
When we got back to the house we started cleaning the house and preparing some of the food so we wouldn't have to do it all on Saturday. We finally decided to stop around 9'ish and everyone went to bed. Except me...I had just remembered I had to get my class assignments done! So here I am again at 10'ish logging in and I didn't get finished until 12:30am! I got to sleep and woke up around 8am Saturday morning to get started on the cookout! And this is the beautiful thing that I woke up to on Saturday morning! These are the froggie pj's that I got him too :) (Yes, I bought a lot of things...but that is what Aunts are for!!)
Our cookout was a Hawaiian theme! It was a Mattox Luau! We got the tents set up in the back yard, the kids swimming pool, we had 2 grills ready to go, decorated the tables and now we had to get the rest of the food done and get ourselves ready! Dad came over early to help us set everything up. Thank goodness that by 12:30 we had all gotten ready and now we just had to get the last minute food things done! And around 1pm they all started showing up! It was great to see everyone and I had such a blast! Thanks to Dustin and Erin for letting us do this at their house! Here are some of the fun pictures I got at the cookout!
