After Wedding Gathering

So even though they are in the middle of a major remodel, Noelle and Steve graciously offered their home (and grilling skills) for a get together the day after the wedding. The cousins were having so much fun getting to know each other. I love Landon's shirt! Allisa was laughing as Dennis and the boys were trading Game boy secrets!
Grammy entertained Hunter and Cooper with bubbles!
Honest Grammy, I really am watering your flowers! Which ones do you want me to water next?
Matt, Danielle and Hunter. What a cute family! {Look behind them to see part of the remodeling. The wall and fireplace have been removed and they are waiting for the new insert to be installed.}
See...what did I tell you before? This is exactly why Della is the photographer not the "photographee"!
Now isn't this a nicer picture? Look how sweet she poses when Mom is around!
Dad and Ashley were deep in conversation.
Do you know why Allisa looks so horrified? This is a yummy meal comprised of steak, grilled oysters, boiled crab and crawfish! She's just spotted the eyes on the crawfish!
Ben peeled the tail and handed it to her to try. She was having none of that!
He told her the next step was to suck the head and make the eyes move. See how she responded to that, lol! Sometimes I feel guilty for not introducing my kids to more seafood but with Ashley allergic to shellfish, it just made more sense not to have it around.
Ainsleigh was willing to try them. Grammy was showing her how to peel the tail to get the meat out.
Love, love, love Korbin's hair. His latest "words of wisdom"- I was sitting by the sliding door and he came pushing his way through. "Outa my way! I gotta poop!" Ya gotta love that kid!
Enjoying some amazing food! So glad Sam, Jane and others of Brady's family could join us. {Look at Hunter's face. As soon as he saw me taking pictures, he started making faces.}
Not sure what Cooper had all over his face- probably more yummy brownie pizza!
Scott and Margie also joined us for this beautiful day of celebration and family time.
Even Tayler and Taylor made an appearance. We teased them that we would all gather together again when they got married.
The wonderful host and hostess- Thanks Steve and Noelle!
Hunter in a box!
Ainsleigh and Della are coloring. I think this is a good cleavage day!
Dad was laughing a second ago. Pull out the camera and he stops, ugh!
Ben and Kyle are trying to sneak 40 winks while the party is still going strong. At least, that is what they want us to think!
I came across this conversation and watched because it was so sweet. Dad said that he was coming to get some fruit and asked if he could sit by her. Ainsleigh said "sure." They talked about her coloring as he picked up fruit and took a bite. She watched him the whole time and he asked her if she would like some pineapple.
She said "yes please!" It was adorable watching him feed her pineapple and her grinning from ear to ear when he did!
Time to say goodbye...Ben told Allisa that she was a good sport about the crawfish and that when Ashley and Brady returned, we would all go out to dinner. Allisa said "to Outback?" Everyone laughed as he agreed!
We are ready to go take a nap! And don't we have presents to open? Goodbye happy couple!
Wait Mom- take this picture...Brady, put your hand up like you are showing off your new ring!
This is my favorite picture of the day! Grandpa and Stevie
Part of Danielle's tattoo- Hunter Anthony (his baby footprints are hidden)
High Five Grandma Jackie!
High Five Auntie Danielle!

See you all soon!
