Spring Break: it's not just for college kids anymore

*Warning: look away now if you are in an area that is experiencing freezing or snowy conditions - not that it's a "balmy" 80 degrees here right now either- or you will become extremely agitated after reading this post...
This past weekend was a blast! We had great weather, a great house, great food, and great fun! Steve and I got invited to go along with several other couples from work. They go to the beach every year to do a run and then party the rest of the weekend. Here's the view from our back yard:Traffic heading out of town Friday was a bi-otch, but we finally got there around 7:00. We all went out to eat and then most of us called it an early night b/c of having to get up so early for the run the next day.
After the running crew got back, the rest of the day was spent grilling, eating, drinking and sunning. The weather was gorgeous so we all hung out on the deck. One of the guys grilled ALL DAY LONG so we chowed on chicken, pork, sausage, fish, shrimp, and grilled veggies the whole day. Check out these veggie kabobs...And we had this stuff, I don't really have a recipe, but I got the gist of it. You buy already made fresh pico de gallo from the grocery store and add feta cheese, black beans, olive oil and some white wine vinegar. Mmm! Seriously, my mouth is watering just thinking about it!

We had originally planned to stay only one night, but well, we just had to stay one more ngiht so we got that worked out. By the time evening rolled around, some of us were sun burnt, some of us were asleep, some of us were still eating and some of us were raring to go!! Steve and I were in the latter group. We headed to a place down the beach where they had a band playing. They were so much fun and we sang and danced along until about 1:00 am. You know I had to get on stage. Can't help it...

Sunday morning, we were exhausted, but we got ourselves together and headed home. So much fun! Whoo-hoo!
