Day Six...Crickets anyone?

Saturday ~ Perfect weather again...I cannot believe it.

Babs and Company came out this morning bringing much anticipated bagels. Delicous biscotti made by Kathleen. Yum. Ate breakfast with everyone at the house then spent the day on the beach. Chatting with my pal, catching up on life as the waves break at our feet.

We made them stay for lunch, made again by the hubbys. All the best things...mozzarella sticks, nachos, bagel bites, quesadillas...children descended..food dissappeared. Man that sea air makes kids hungry.

The G's arrived promptly after Babs and Co. departed. ( and yes Kath we did find your bra!!! lol)made the kids' dinner then out with DH, BFF, MC and the G's to Bocce Beach. Again service nothing to write home about though we got a nice table on the outside deck amongst all the action. Then met up with all the kids up to town to listen to the band on the dock. Found them dancing to the music! And holy moly what happened to the quiet??? I think 5000 more people came over on the ferry between Fri. and Sat. Town was HOPPING to say the least. Fun though.

After we got the kids we were on a mission. Eat a cricket. Not me. No can do. I would have thrown up. The candy store will give you a pin as pictured at the top, and take your picture and put it on the wall of fame. So the brave ones were DH, DD, Junior, ( me and Shorty said no thanks), MC, Dancer Girl and Kellster. Ugh. So if you ever happen by that store look for the mugs on the wall. You will never find me there. Maybe the ice cream place will put my picture on the wall for most mint chocolate chip cones?
