Weekend Festivities

This has been our view of the beach for much of the last week. Family is here, hanging at the hotel so we get to see the view from a little higher up for a change.

OK if you're reading this blog because you are friends with some of my family, oh boy, do I have stories to tell and you know who I'm talking about. Those will be told but only after the fog of much sangria and margaritas has cleared. How can a guy as classy as Dwight Yoakam bring out the redneck in people who are 60+ years old? I thought they knew better. Oh and if you are reading this and you are the woman in the purple zebra striped cowboy hat(I'm not making this up), I really don't think Dwight was going to sleep with you and I'm pretty sure he wasn't singing directly to you. There were easily three thousand people between you and the stage and uh, well I was right up at the front of that stage for a few minutes and well, he was singing to me and continued singing to me even when I moved out of the mosh pit. Oh and just so you know I think I even got some Dwight spit on me, are you jealous now? Then again it could have been beer.

If you're reading this and you have a daughter here, I saw her at midnight and she was fine. I haven't heard all about the babysitting adventure other than Laney and Alex were with Barbara and Sue when we got back. That's probably not a sign that Ryne and Audrey handled it. But Audrey did know how to order pizza so everyone got fed.

Oh if you're reading this and you were at Los Panchos last night, they sat us in the back, if we had been any farther in the back we'd have been at Fudpuckers. We appreciate the standing ovation when we left, but was shouting "Thank God they're leaving!" really necessary? It was just a little rude and you got off easy. We could have had all the kids with us and well, let's just say, it could have gotten really ugly. Other people requested to be relocated somewhere else in the restaurant, you had the same option. Lighten up, have some sangria, we had 8 pitchers. Oh you knew that already?

What a beautiful view Melissa! Puts Virginia Beach to shame. Your water is so blue/green and the sand is so white!!

LOL OMG that sounds like something I should have been invited to. Love the beach picture - it makes me homesick for FL.

LOL! Reading your blog is a hoot. Can I have some Dwight spit? And next time, could you at least save me a glass of sangria?? Geez....

As a member of Melissa's visiting family, let me assure everyone that Ryne and Audrey's babysitting skills where far superior to some people's drinking skills. Yes, the beach is beautiful and I can't wait for the day that Florida forgets and forgives our visit and allows us to come back!!!!
