Whittle WeUnion '08


It was time for another Whittle Women We-Union and this time Craig came. Cindy flew in from Green Bay, Wendy from Mississippi, Craig and Allison traveled the furthest from the Northwest and Kris, Lisa, Jil and Mom drove three hours. We met at Sea Colony Resort at Bethany Beach, Delaware.


Mom bought us nightshirts. We look like Easter eggs!


We walked the boardwalk at Rehoboth.


And ate Rehoboth's famous Thrasher fries.


Had icecream.


It was so fun to bond with each other. We spent hours and hours talking.


We did our strengthening exercises before bed.


Kris brought some face cleanser samples from Julie which we applied every night.


Playing on the keyboard the duets we learned when we were little.


Jil and Mom bought sweatshirts.


We each did a craft on Allison's day to plan.


Ta dah!


Craig and Allison treated us to a crab dinner.


Craig taught us about hooking up wireless.


We celebrated Mother's Day early with all of us together.


Playing Blokus


We played Hand and Foot. Here is a video of us singing "My Pigeon House" in harmony for posterity. Several people have asked for the words:

My pigeon house lay open wide and let the birds fly free.

They fly over hills, mountain valley wide and light on the tallest tree.

And when they return from their merry, merry flight,

They close their eyes and say "goodnight".

Coo roo, coo roo, coo roo, coo roo, coo roo, coo roo, coo roo.


We walked the beach at sunset.


Beautiful Bethany Beach.
