Last weekend the family got together to celebrate my, Paula's and Kim's birthdays. Paula had already committed to a golf tournament (which she came in 2nd) so she couldn't make it and Jerry had to work, but the rest of us had a great time. Kim and I turned the BIG 4-0 this year but are holding our own. We may not be able to dance like the young whippersnappers on the Wii but we can still hang.

For my big 4-0 birthday, we went down to Edisto Beach to relax, drink, eat and celebrate.

The theme of the weekend!


Paula instructing Benee on the correct way to cook.


Jerry's famous "beach shirt" that he created all by himself. I know - it's nice.


Paula and Monty


Monty all smiles with a cold beer.

Some group shots during the weekend.


Playing Mexican Train Dominoes


Everyone meandering around before dinner.


Monty taking a whiff of Benee's sauce for the pasta.


Paula and Jerry in the kitchen. See all the healthy food that we ate all weekend. Yummy!!

On the golf course


Paula taking a swing. Check out those muscles in her legs - impressive. I love her pony-tail. She should be in a shampoo commercial.


Monty strutting his stuff. Do you see the ball?


A unique pair of trees on the course.
