Irene chased us home early :(

Oh well, we had a great 5 days vacationing on the ocean in Duck, NC with family so I am not going to complain!  I spent a lot of time on the beach and felt good in my bathing suits for the first time in forever!  I came home 1/2 lb lighter than when I left...how cool is that?  We had an earthquake while there and Irene was approaching.  What else should you expect when there are 10 Italians under one roof?

Here are a few pics from the vacay:

My daughter Mallory, the actress, she hadn't even started to cut the onion and she was "crying"!

Brutus loved getting all wet and sandy!

Great pictures! What a good looking family!
So glad you made it home safe. I was thinking about you this morning when I saw the storm footage on TV.

That 1/2 lb was clearly from the 10 minutes of yoga you did - thank me later... I want my towel back, I saw you eyeballing it!

Great pictures!!! We were in Williamsburg and we came home a bit early too - we figured better to have no power at home than in a condo! I'm glad you had such a nice time and woo hoo on the loss on vacation!
