The Gulf

2 weeks ago Connor and I headed down to the beach to hang out with friends. Cait, Greg and Will met us there and so did Chrissy, Josh and Mary Casen. We had a REALLY good time (despite the terrible weather on Fri and Sat and the looming oil spill). The kids were really wonderful (i.e. they slept!). I think this will be an annual event - just have to figure out a way to rent a house so we can bring all of our friends and babies.

We arranged to have a "guys" night on Friday (2 reasons - Colin got his bar results that day and it was Greg's birthday) - then the girls went out on Saturday evening. We went to my favorite Mexican place (they have TERRIBLE chips but the food is so delicious and they have WINE margaritas - TO DIE FOR!) Seriously, not sure if I can drink a plain ol' margarita again. We were planning to have professional photos made on the beach (actually this was going to be my mother's day gift to all the grandmoms/ aunts etc). Too bad the weather was so overcast we have a raincheck until we can get back to the beach. I did manage to snap 1 semi-ok picture of the babies at the beach - well, the stairs to the beach -- I really didn't anticipate that Thursday would be our one and only day all together on the beach - so I didn't take pictures then -- dumb. But this is cute . . .

I have a bunch more pictures of Connor on the beach later that week - after Colin left and my parents came down -- I'll post some soon. Tired tonight.
