Long weekend

by Suzanne on September 7, 2010

in friends,just plain fun,oh the places we go,small fry

We went to the beach again. Don’t hate me.

For the last decade or so, I’ve organized an annual Labor Day beach trip with college pals. In the early days, we used to cram 25 people into a house that slept 12. We’d stay up all night and sleep on the beach all day.

How times have changed.

Now we’re chasing kids all day and sleeping all night. Wouldn’t have it any other way, actually. Happy chaos, I like to call it.

My friend Ann took these photos with her fancy new Nikon DSLR, which I covet. I can’t get over the clarity and color of these images. Just beautiful!

How was your long weekend? What did you get into?

Hope it was fun!

Beautiful photos! We were at the beach too–on the other coast.

Sounds like fun! Laura used to live in California, and I absolutely loved visiting. My favorite thing about the beaches there (Santa Monica area) were the guys peddling tortilla chips from gigantic trash bags. And the little kids would come up and squirt sauce on them. Best chips I ever ate!

WAY cute! Love little girl swimsuits!

We went home to SC for the weekend and saw family. Good times but also a little sad since it’s the last time I’ll see my dad before he moves to Costa Rica (where he’s from).

Wow — that’s a big move! Sounds like the perfect excuse to make a trip to Costa Rica, though. :) Glad y’all had a fun weekend. Looking forward to seeing you soon!
