We got everything organized and headed down on Friday for the long weekend. We got a four bedroom condo on the second row from the water. As much as I like organizing trips, I always get a little anxious picking the place to stay - is it going to suck, is it going to be dirty, is it going to be all broken down and crappy? No, nope, and no way Jose! It was just the perfect size for everyone. If we had all king size beds, then we'd be in business. But the girls were so sweet - biggest preggo gets the biggest bed. And now Jess and I need to buy a new set of mattresses...
Saturday we got up early, because of the doggies and the full time job routine, ate yummy breakfasts (thanks Megan!), and moved the party down to the beach. And pretty much stayed there until the sun was almost down/we got hungry for dinner. Who doesn't love a rousing game of Catch Phrase!? I swear, I love that game. It never fails to be a good, loud, laughing time.
Sunday was a repeat of Saturday - and that was a-ok! There were maybe a few additional drinks and a pair of socks due to some burnt feet but overall, wonderful day! The girls were so sweet again - dinner that night was complimented with celebratory mocktails (YUMMM!), a thoughtful birthday card, and a cake in celebration of my birthday today.
Monday was whomp whomp. We had to pack it up and come home. During a long walk on the beach with my sweetums, we discussed how we felt about the beach trip. And by that, I mean that we both viewed the beach trip as a last hoorah before the baby comes. With us getting ready to go home, it sort of hit us (well, hit me) that I'm at the tail end of the pregnancy and he'll be here before we knew it. It's crazy to say that we're going to have a baby. It's crazy that he's going to be curled up in our arms soon. It's crazy that he could literally come at any point. It's crazy that our lives are going to be forever different because he is in it. I can't wait to meet that sweet little being and I can't wait to see him in my wife's arms.
And now some beach pictures and some swollen cankles. And no, we didn't make that big spot on the carpet...
