House Warming


We celebrated Brian and Karla's new home this Labor Day Weekend with Jason, Meaghan, Mike, Colleen and Troy.  I loved growing up in a big family and every chance we have, we take to be together.  So, the 8 of us kept busy and had a ton of fun!

Brian has taken upon himself every Sat- Sun breakfast.  He treated us to scrambled eggs, toasted bagels and fresh fruit.  There was also 4 kinds of juices!  He was an excited host!

This pic captures our the guys tossing the football on the beach of Emerald Isle.  It also catches Brian in the act- he's getting ready to throw mud.  Must be a guy thing??
Side note:  Mike, Jason and Josh didn't grow up with brothers, but now, through the blessing of marriage, they have each other plus Brian, Michael & Kevin.  How cool is that?  

Mike & Colleen's friends parents own a house right near the beach- here's a shot of the sunset.  We had a great day hanging out with the friends and then the parents cooked us burgers and dogs!  It is always a treat when someone else cooks for me!

Troy had fun too, exploring cabinets and making himself at home.  We stayed up late every night - like, past 1 o'clock late- because none of us wanted the day to end!  It was such a fun time!
