Weekend at the beach

Adam and I went to Coronado Island in California over the weekend for a reunion with my college friends. We had so much fun!!! Our boys stayed with Adam's parents for two days and my parents for two days. My friend Liz's family owns a beach house just down the street from the the famous Hotel Del Coronado (pictured in the previous post). The house is beautiful and huge, so there was plenty of room for all 17 of us! We spent the weekend taking bike rides, laying on the beach, shopping, eating, talking, playing games, and the boys even went surfing. It's so much fun because all of our husbands get along GREAT. Thanks, Liz and Mike, for letting us stay at your house!!

The boys driving the convertible bug on their way to go surfing. We thought they looked kinda gay in that thing, but it was funny.



















Our great hosts, Liz and Mike

















Eating dinner

















All the girls


















We made the boys ride the bikes to the restaurant on the island where we went out to eat, while the girls got to ride in the car. It was pretty funny to see them all on the bikes. What nice husbands we have.

Babies Jack and Chase hanging out at the beach. Two of our friends had nursing babies, so they got to bring them along

I'm so jealous of you guys! Coronado is my home, even if I only lived there for a minute!

It looks like you had so much fun. That's wonderful! I can see us all doing something like that in the future- getting together and going on trips. How fun would that be??

That looked awesome. I bet everyone had a great time. Where is the brick wall that you are in front of on your family pic at the top of the blog? Way cool. We need a picture there...totally my style.
