Germanchokolatekake...

It was great getting to hang out with Brenda, Amber, Luke, Sharon, and Jim. They all came down from the Baltimore area to vacation here in North Myrtle Beach this week. They stayed on the beach at a nice condo on 17th Ave South (only about 2 miles from our home). They stayed there last summer, as well, when they came down for our wedding.

Brenda and Amber are former students of mine back at Harford Hills Elementary in Baltimore. I also taught their sister, Allison, but she wasn't able to make the trip this time.

We hung out on the beach with them on Monday, then Jim fired up the grill for some burgers and dogs. Afterwards, we played a whole bunch of rounds of Catch Phrase for plenty of fun and quite a few laughs. We saw them again on Friday evening when we went out for ice cream at Cold Stone Creamery. Germanchokolatekake, one of their flavors, provided some humor while waiting in line.

...and then (remember this rainy day, Brenda?). Taken about 7-and-a-half years ago (4th grade) after she invited me to come watch her ride in a horse competition...


And a few videos of some Catch Phrase action...
