ShaMargaritas

May 31, 2010

Ah Memorial Day Weekend. A time to catch a break from the real world, plan an epic beach day, and remember those brave souls who have made great sacrifices to fight for our country.

To celebrate both our American freedom and 3-day weekend freedom, my friends and I decided to pretty much go out every day/every night.

Sunday we hit up Caddy’s On the Beach in Sunset Beach, FL.

The beach was absolutely PACKED.

Boats, people, slightly intoxicated people EVERYWHERE.

I don’t know if you can see in the picture below, but in the distance starts a massive group of people that goes on for about a mile. Caddy’s made sure that people who brought their own beverage cooler played slightly down the beach from the restaurant.

Bring on the sunshine, bring on the good times.

I came prepared with tequila and margarita mix.

Random Fact of the Day: My friends and I have a really weird joke where we just combine words with my name.

Examples:  These tasty marg’s = ShaMargaritas. Maybe? More like ShaMaybe.  (This can go on and on)

By 7PM the beach was absolutely trashed. Poor beach. :(

Good times ya’ll.

As you can probably tell, I haven’t been the healthiest beach bum. That is all going to change though because starting tomorrow I’m hopping aboard the healthy train. (choo choo!)

Here are a few things to keep me motivated:

1. The LA Idiot’s 30 Day Cleanse (wish me luck–the thought of no McD’s for a whole month is terrifying)

2. Just registered for the Disney Half Marathon on January 11th

3. Bathing suit season

Also, June 3rd is my 1 Year Bloggy Anniversary! Keep your eyes peeled for a yummy and beachy giveaway. :)

    Oh my goodness let’s do the Disney half-marathon together!! Seriously!!! I plan to run my first half in Pensacola in November. And I have always wanted to run the Disney half. I’ll feel better to run with someone I “know.” lol

      Sounds good to me! It’ll be my first half. Right now lets just say I can run about a 3ish-K lol. This hot weather is killin my motivation!

    looks like a great time! It is kind of crazy though how much people absolutely trash beaches. That drives me a bit crazy. I saw pics on the news this morning from the Jersey shore and every single inch was covered by someone or a towel. That’s too crowded for me, but I definitely understand why people want to get outta the city and hit the water!

    Congrats on signing up for the half! I’ve heard that one is a ton of fun!

    Soo jealous of your beachiness. And I love random friend jokes like that! Congrats on registering for the Disney half! I am soo tempted but haven’t really gotten my running mojo back since my stress fracture a couple months ago. It would be fun if we had a big bloggie meet up at Disney though!!

    Aww, Yay for the Half Marathon. I like the idea of that 30 day cleanse but I love my margaritas and red wine. I may think about trying this.

      Oh don’t worry, I told him I can’t give up my margaritas too. Especially since Summertime just officially begun! :) I’m just attempting the running 3o days thing + not eating fast food. We’ll see how it goes… lol

    30 runs?! That’s the part of this program that I can’t live with! LOL But good luck with it hun! Remember, McDonald’s food is SO gross anyway! I actually had the option of eating there at a rest stop today and chose not to! lol

    Looks like you had a blast–I can’t believe how packed the beach is!!

    Good for you for registering for the Disney Marathon–I’m going to run my first half in September!!

    I’m going to combine some words and say Happy Blogiversary!

    I was thinking of possibly doing the Disney Half, too, but I’m not sure if i will have enough time to train since I am doing my Triathlons in Aug/September!!
    That is so awesome you’re doing it, congrats!
