Beach time

We're getting ready to head to the beach tomorrow, and I'm feeling cruddy. I will fight this cold bug to the death though. Wait, that sounded bad. I mean that the cold bug will die, not me. Anywhoo...

This will be the 26th year of the Veerkamp/Candido President's Day weekend Dillon Beach trip. Sad to say, the house we've rented for all these years (except one) has been sold and the new owners aren't renting it out. So, we're on to a new house and will surely be trying to find things in the cabinets all weekend.

Our beach trip now makes me think of 3 years ago. We just found out on Thursday that Bekah had chosen us as parents for her baby, and we left for the beach the next day. What a weekend of surreal disbelief that was! I was kind of hoping that we would be "expecting" again for this year's trip, but no dice. (Where does that phrase come from anyway? Dice?) Another member of our beach party is expecting though, and I'm so excited for her. Last year we were there looking at Bride magazines for her wedding in July, and this year we'll be planning for baby who is due in August!

Another member of our party has a big announcement to make, but I better not spill the beans. I'll let you know when I'm allowed.

So... we're off to the probably rainy coast! I promise to update photos when we get back. I've been a slacker in the department lately.

Thanks for reading. This was a strange post. I blame the Sudafed.
