Hooter Family Reunion

Justin's alarm goes off at 6:30 and he rolls out of bed to get the smoker going to put the brisket on for the Hooter Family Reunion tonight.  I roll out of bed at 7:00, grab my phone and see I have text from Haley and Jenny asking if we are on fire or are OK.  I run out of the bedroom to check on Justin out back and all I see is red!  I run around the corner to look out back and I see 4 fireman on our back porch and they are posing for a picture.  Remington is now losing his mind and is going to wake up the entire house.  I cannot run out there because I only have a t-shirt on.  I wait for Justin to come inside and he cannot even talk he is laughing so hard.

Apparently the new neighbors that just moved in behind us 2 weeks ago from CA called 911.  They saw smoke coming from the backyard.  Justin was making a video of the smoker talking about how good that pecan wood smells and what a great smoke it is.  He was recording for Jason and Ronnie.  You can hear the sirens in the back and Justin jokes that they were coming for him... less than 2 minutes later Justin hears the air brakes on the other side of the fence, looks up and sees the trucks.  He goes to the side of the house, 15 or so fireman are going into the neighbors backyard and he hears the neighbor tell them that he just saw smoke in the back.  Justin catches the fire chief getting out of his car and tells him that we live behind him and just fired up the smoker and threw a brisket on and that might be what he called about.  Sure enough it was!  LOL

 

Seth had a 3:00 soccer game out in Flower Mound so we made dinner at 6:00 so everyone had time to get here after sports.  Nina came early so she could get some of her side dishes in the oven.  Ronbo, Theresa and Causby got in around 3:30 and Ronbo made some homemade chips that were delicious.  

Sunday morning Amy, Nina, Jason and Michelle came over for breakfast and then Ronbo and Theresa headed home.  Memaw and Amy stayed and we got to visit.
