What’s up people!  I am coming to you live from Beach Baby, the home of Beachapalooza 2008!  We are having a wonderful time! We got here around 5:30pm yesterday and immediately got into the pool.  After a few beers, we started up the shrimp boil.  It was absolutely awesome!  Then it was time for Flip Cup!  I’d like to say that my team won, but alas, we fell in the final round to Team Chip.  It’s okay…that was just the first round. Today, our bikes arrived that we rented and we biked into Seaside and Watercolor for the afternoon. ...

As early as 6 years old, I began learning how to...

Christy and I both would like to send our congratulations to our good friends, Katie and Hani, on the birth of their first born, a son, Lucas John!  He is absolutely adorable!  Mom, Dad and baby are all home safe and sound and things are going great!  Congrats guys!  You can check them out on their blog, which is www.katieandhani.com. We are also preparing for our beach trip coming up next week!  That’s right, we’re under single digits on the Countdown clock for Beachapalooza 2008!  Yay!  I know that we cannot wait to get down to Seagrove...
