Beach Weekend #2

Well, our second weekend at the beach has come and gone. We got down to Wildwood Crest late Friday night, and pretty much crashed once we got there.

Saturday was fairly easy. Anita and her family went to the beach for the day while Brendan and I hung about the house (I ended up sleeping most of the afternoon). Then the four of us (Anita, her sister Kris, her brother-in-law Brendan, and myself) took on babysitting their niece (Gigi) and nephews (Danny and Nathan) (plus the kids of two friends visiting from Pittsburgh - Alex and AJ). After chasing Gigi around for a few hours, she went to bed and we took the boys for a walk to Ice Cream Alley, then (once we were all cleaned up) we started a game of Settlers of Cataan and were playing that when all the parents came home, kept playing until after all the parents were in bed, then finally little Danny won the game (ugh - Anita and I were SOO close to winning) and we went back to the house and crashed.

More pcs of Gigi are here.

On Sunday, we slept in a bit, and Danny, Joanna and Gigi came over for a visit. Read the paper, relaxed for a couple of hours then Anita and I left early to head back home for the Bernhardts' 50th anniversary party. What a great time we had at the party (not to mention all weekend).

(Check out the old neighborhood dancing it up!!)


More pics from the Bernhardt's part are here.

First Beach Weekend of 2005!!

Anita and I just finished our first beach weekend of 2005! We arrived in Wildwood Crest around 11:30pm Friday night. Saturday morning, Anita went to the gym while I read out on the deck. Then afternoon at the beach, and Anita's neice's 2nd Birthday party in the evening (pictures here).

Sunday started out kind of crappy, so we played some tennis early on, watched Anita's nephew, Danny, learn how to waterski, then up to my parent's house in Sea Isle for Fathers day.

Not too shabby for the first beach weekend (finally!) of the year!

Mike Kimmel and Pam Zimmerman Wedding

NEW: Wedding pictures from Kathy Zimmerman (Pam's Aunt) are in the gallery here

My pictures are online. Check them out here.. I should also mention that a BIG HUGE THANKS goes to Anita for taking most of these while I was busy in the wedding!!

And I think I speak for everyone on the Kimmel side of the family when I say that the Zimmermans and friends really showed us a wonderful time in St. Louis. Thanks to all of you, too!

Marissa's pictures can be found here.

An excellent time was had by all over Memorial Day weekend celebrating my brother's marriage to Pam Zimmerman.

The wedding took place on Sunday, May 29th in St. Louis, MO. For the rehearsal dinner Saturday night, we put together a DVD with pictures from Mike and Pam growing up. You can access a computer version of the video here.

The rehearsal dinner was held at the Mad Art Gallery (across the street from the Anheiser-Busch brewery) and the wedding itself was held at the St. Louis Natural History Museum.

As I said, more details to follow (including pics), so stay tuned...
