Thanks, we did good. No traffic and arrived right on schedule. It's so great to be at the ocean again....little beach towns, the boardwalk, the activities. I love it!:cloud9:
Sounds absolutely wonderful! I hope you have a great time!
 
Hi Marilyn!

Yes, it is Cinco de Mayo, a well celebrated Party Holiday in California!

We usually get together with friends for a party, but everyone was off on short trips and we are working madly on the new shop and getting ready for our DL trip on Wednesday!!

DH made Halibut Ceviche and Pulled Pork!! He is SUCH an excellent cook!!

DIS will be going down again soon. I'll try to stay up for it to return this time!

Karen

This is WAY off topic: But you mentioning pulled pork reminded me of something from the Larry the Cable Guy show. He said, "Know what sounds dirty but it's not? Pulled pork!" :rotfl2: :rotfl2:
 
We had fun!...The kids were well-behaved, and polite, and had a great time. I really hate it when people talk about how bad teens are, but don't spend the time with them to see how good they can be...

We let the kids stuff the money wherever they wanted to as they were catching it flying around the machine, and let's just say the girls got pretty creative and that money was in places that caused a lot of laughter. (I told one she should go to the restroom to get it all out.
I'm so glad you and Amy had fun! Sounds like a great time to me! :goodvibes
 
When we arrived in town yesterday, we stopped by to see Lisa/DisneyLover5 at her Bethany Beach house. Here's Lisa and John in front of Lisa's house.

This is part of the outside pool at our hotel. We also have an indoor pool and it's a good thing because it's cool and windy outside today.

This is the Greene Turtle where we ate today and I bought another turtle for my collection. www.thegreeneturtle.com

Tomorrow is supposed to be a little warmer and hopefully less windy and we'll take pics of the beach towns to share with you.:cloud9: :love: :cloud9:
 

You are such a rebel!!

How do you know it didn't go on your "permanent record"?

Karen


No sweat....I still graduated in the top percentile of my class, did well on the SATs and was accepted by the college of my choice. It didn't matter at all!
:cheer2: :upsidedow :cheer2:
 

You are welcome!! Glad to share her story with such supportive friends.


Here is a pic I took on the morning of her first interview:

Soooooo Beautiful!!! She's your baby, right? How quickly they grow.
:hippie:
 



Hi Karen....it's good to be back!

We're leaving here Sat early and we're stopping to see Lisa in Bethany Beach, a mini-dismeet. We'll do coffee and hugs and keep each other company for a little while. Then we'll check into the hotel. We have a suite with a balcony overlooking the ocean. YEAH I really need it bad. We're staying until Tuesday. We'll shop for turtles, my favorite, to add to my collection. We're meeting our real estate agent and friend, Donna, for drinks on Monday. We'll eat at the Greene Turtle, my favorite. We'll bring wine and pop some corks on the balcony.

I can't wait. I need Calgon to take me away....:cool1:

Deb, Thanks so much for visiting. Thank you so much for the beautiful roses!! We are all enjoying them!! It really was very nice to meet you both!!

The wind was really whipping when we woke up this morning.....we pretty much packed up and came home for my DFIL's 73 birthday party!! I had to run and pick Gretchen up at a party (she was invited :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: ) and the run to Frank's party and now I am finally home....7:15pm EDT

How beautiful and so ready to face the world!! I was saying to my friend I am so excited for Daniel graduating from High School....maybe even a little jealous.....Do you feel any of those emotions with Sam?
 
Awesome time at the zoo! Very chilly today, but that just means I didn't get all hot and sweaty walking all day. :thumbsup2 Will post a few pics later. About an hour ride each way, plus 5 hours at the zoo.......I'd love a nap, since Tyler got to take one on the way home in the car, but I have to go pick up branches in the back yard. Ugggghhhhh..... :headache:


Glad you had a great day at the Zoo....looking forward to the pics!
:cool1: :cool2: :cool1:
 
Okay, guys, I have to post Prom pictures from Friday night.

John I think it is just awesome that you work the prom in your HS!! How awesome is that....and good PR for a school board member!!

Daniel had a great time. I told youguys he has not dated very much ("girls are too much trouble and too expensive!!") but his date was a long time friend and they had a great time!!
