I did NOT want to go to work this morning.....because it meant I had to leave THIS:

Our friends' parents own a beach house. Now, when I say beach house, I mean "The Mother of All Beach Houses"! We were able to use it all week-end....and it was one of the best trips I have ever had =0)

THANK YOU JD, Pam, Kelli, Joel and Jacob for opening up your home to us!

We had every bed filled! My father, stepmother and two brothers joined us from my side of the fam. Caleb's father, mother, brother, brother's girlfriend, sister and sister's friend made it from his side.

Caleb and I felt like we owned a bed and breakfast because we were able to play host and hostess while all the grandparents tended to Ben! It was so nice to be able to invite our family to the beach and then watch them truly relax!

Here are some pictures of the house:

The house faces south which meant we had beautiful views of the sunrise and the sunset!

My parents slept here:

Huge common areas abound!

The kitchen and a dining room table is to the right that seated all 12 of us plus a high chair for Ben!

Our Room:

Caleb's Parents' Room:

Philip and Scott each had their own room!

Casey's girlfriend, Caleb's sister and her friend loved this room. Check out the double or queen sized bunk beds:

More common areas:

Casey's face lit up when he heard he had his own king bed to sleep on! Casey is REALLY tall!

Ben even had his "own room" in the owner's closet. He was the best baby ALL week-end! Again, we could not have asked for better weather, a better tempered baby or better company!
