Nana and Papa's Beach Condo...


60-80 mile an hour winds at Nana and Papa's Beach condo this week end...and it was awesome! Big snow storm hit us while we were there as well. Thank you for letting us invade your peaceful week end mom and dad!
A typical two hour trip home from the ocean took us 3 1/2 hours to get back home. Feels good getting home and out of the truck but I must say,.... looking at the pictures of our week end, I wish we were still there.
I'll post more about the week end and lots of pictures this week...heading out side now to play in the snow with the kids and the dog...I think Dave and his Brother Bill might be out there now starting a snowball fight! Uncle Bill is here until Tuesday and we sure have had a fun time with him here. Although I'm sure his home in Florida is calling his name,...let me see,... 28 degrees here and 80 degrees in his home town right now.
The kids are thrilled to be out on their college break until January 7th!
Oh ...thank you for the sweet Birthday wishes! I see a small birdie up north let that one out of the bag! ...lol

I'm green with envy that you got to experience stormy weather AND snow at the Beach!!! I love it down there and your Mom is the best hostess in the world. Looking forward to more days with you and Terri coming down. I even miss the games that scare Penni. (.....'Make her STOP!!....') If we make it down there together; I'll make you a Hangtown Fry you can compare to your Dad's.

Forgot....The hat in my photo says, "I AM CANADIAN" It came with a case of Molson's Canadian beer. My cousin's son gave me the hat a few years ago and tried out his new digital camera at the same time.

Christine said...

Attebetty...that cracks me up just to think about that game...oh my gosh I laughed so hard that evening! Next time you come to the beach with us wear that hat!.. I love it! Tell Terri hi for me too!
