Four years

Today is 4/4 and our other business Movies by the Sea opened 4 years ago. Is it crazy that we actually chose our opening date because 4/4/04 sounded cool? Thank you to all of our fabulous customers who have supported us during our journey. Below are some of our old photos. I love seeing the kids who were just tiny little things when we opened. Also, as you can see, what began as me begging my husband for a little toy section in the BACK of the store has progressed into me trying to take over the entire thing!

Swaisie's Daddy for Prom King

Please help us support Bryan in his run for Prom King. Prom is the theme for this year's Seaside Repertory Theatre fundraiser. Six men and women will compete for the title of prom king or queen by trying to raise the most money for his/her campaign. Here's how you can support Bryan's:

• NAME YOUR OWN PIZZA -With each new menu printing, we would like to honor a local by including his or her favorite pizza. Our first honoree suggested the Daddy O'Drew (pepperoni & feta), but it is time for Drew's Daddy to make room for a new pie. For a $10 donation to The Seaside Rep, you will be entered into the contest. Just drop by Pizza by the Sea any time with the name of your pizza, its toppings and 10 buckaroos.
• BUY OUR SIGN - For just $25 per day, you can reserve space on one of the most trafficked locations in the area. We will write your message on the chalkboard outside the pizza place that everyone driving into the Publix shopping center will see. You can wish someone happy birthday, welcome visitors to the area or promote your business. Call the pizza place at 850.231.3030 to reserve your space. (There are only a handful of days left.)
• DROP IT IN THE BUCKET - Lighten your pockets by dropping your change in donation buckets around town at locations such as Pizza by the Sea, Movies by the Sea, Cafe Rendez-Vous and the UPS Store. You can also DONATE ONLINE.
  

And since it's all for The Rep, we have to give props to candidate Ed Walborsky for his groooovy video. Also notable are Wendy Mignot's sequined sign at Rendez-Vous, Claire Laplante's girly donation buckets (complete with pink feathers) and Michael Granberry's political-style campaign buttons.

Incidentally, he thinks his mom is hot. :)

Sheryl Crow at Pizza by the Sea?

One of our handsome customers claims to have shared a pizza with Sheryl outside tonight. We'll let you be the judge...

Friends

A group of old friends convened tonight after a day at the beach. The Mitchells welcomed their friends from Philadelphia and Boston with a big sign in front of the pizza place. Stay tuned to Marla & Shane's blog as Shane is shooting this fun group tomorrow. We also loved welcoming this cute little family from Kentucky who said the pizza was "the best we've ever had." Awwwww....

Only in WaterColor...

Happy Birthday Meredith

We loved being part of your special night, silly string and all.

Happy Easter!!!

Our employees rock

This week we broke records at Pizza by the Sea and Movies by the Sea. Thank you to all of the wonderful members of our team who helped make it happen. (Pictured below are some of tonight's crew.)

Thank God for kids

If you're not a kid person, this may not be the place for you. Pizza by the Sea loves to celebrate all things kids and the kids in all of us. (Incidentally, a kid took some of these photos.)
