Port Aransas!

The last weekend of July, the crew (Me, Jerry, Kristen, Brady, Cindy, Chris, Andrea, Zach, Megan, and JB) decided to rent a house in Port Aransas.  Oh my gosh.... the house was AMAZING!!!  The house was so amazing that it even had an elevator in it--- now that's high class!  Everyone arrived on Thursday evening(except Jerry- he had a presentation on Thursday night, so he flew in Friday morning to Corpus.) We all drew for rooms... this was a huge deal because one couple had to sleep on a pull out bed... It turned out that Jerry and I got he master, Megan and JB got a spare bedroom, Andrea and Zach got a spare bedroom, Chris and Cindy got the basement bed.... which means..... Kristen and Brady got the pull out bed...next trip you guys get the best room.  They were really good sports about it though. 

Friday:

I got up around 7:00 and drank a cup of coffee on the balcony with Zach and later Brady and Andrea.  It was so nice sitting on the balcony listening to the waves and simply being there.  At about 8:30, Megan and I drove to pick up Jerr Bear.  On the way, I got some sad news...I will discuss this later in another post.  We picked up Jerry and headed back to the house for some yummy breakfast cooked by Zach, Brady, and Cindy.  At that point we were ready to get to the beach.  Off we all went...all 8 of us walked with beach supplies in hand to the end of the street.... looked around.... and realized that we had to drive to the beach....oooopppss.  WE FINALLY GOT TO THE BEACH!  The boys set up the volleyball net while the girls enjoyed the water.  It was a great day. 

We went home, napped, the girls went back to the beach, while the boys made dinner.  It was a fabulous day. 

Saturday:
On Saturday we knew the drill.... wake up, eat breakfast, beach it! We played volleyball, swam in the ocean, and had a BLAST!  We decided to go out to eat at a place called Trout Street and then go shopping.  At the store there was a giant shark---

Sunday:
SUNDAY =SAD DAY.... It was time to go home :(  The trip had gone by too fast.  All I can say is I have the greatest friends in the entire world.  We all had such a great time together! I love how I can be my random/ crazy/ weird self and not have to worry. 

The beautiful view!
