Crayfish for dinner.

Tyler invited his good pal Ryan to come up to Pine City to spend a few days last week. The boys spent lots of time playing video games, watching movies, riding bikes, and well, being 12 year old boys. It's amazing how the addition of one child can increase the noise volume in your house. :)

Ryan and Tyler have been friends since they were 3 and have endured the first day of school, Elementary School, lots of football and basketball seasons and their recent accomplishment was finishing the first year of middle school together. It's fun to watch them interact and beat up on each other.

We took the whole gang down to the St. Croix River one night and Tyler and Ryan had big plans to be finding as many crayfish as they could. We came home with a huge pail of them.........of course, the next question was: What do we do with them?

Kirby, aka Mr. Chef Boyardee suggested they boil them up and eat them.

So, peeking the interest of two 12 year old boys.....that's what they did!

Can you believe they actually ate them? Yuck!

Ryan- a little tentative but eventually gave in.
Tyler-no fear for this boy.

I think Logan and Emma even had a bite.........umm, no thanks for me!
