Those of you reading this know that it's been a rough couple of years for our family, so this week was truely a blessing!! My very best friend Shenoa (I say that b/c she's known me for almost 20 years and is still my friend despite!) asked us to go to her families beach house in Hilton Head....my kids FAVORITE place in the world. So even though their spring break was the week before, and Taylor missed the week before that with strep....we went. And this, what you're about to see, this part is called "Happiness"...
Oh how I've missed this moment. After a long day on the beach we get all cleaned up and take these rosey cheeked little ones out for dinner and ice cream!
This is the first day out. The beach was a little chilly so we stayed up by the club and the kids dug trenches, built sand castles, and yes....rode on Taylor like he was a donkey.
Landon had to get in on that action!!
So sweet!!!!!
Classic hu? The boys are annoyed at another picture b/c they want to run and pick up "stuff" and Park is tickled to show her hula skills!!
I can't believe they got in this water. We had great weather, but this water was COLD!
And there's the "stuff". Apparently it was sandollar season and Taylor found about 20...I didn't know they were alive....ugh. Another thing to kill. And he did. Then over night he had an attack of concience (sorry if I spelled this wrong, I'm to lazy to look it up.) and decided from now on he was going to let things live. Nice.
On the way to South Beach for some yummy ice cream....
Wow, I can't believe we're this old....we'll leave it at that...with kids. I'll have to say we talked a lot about the good ole' days when all we did was lay in the sun and read magazines, no worries of a kid running off or bugging other people!
There's that ice cream. Of course Park has to get the stuff that has 18 different food colors so she can wipe it all over herself!
And here's the "big play ground". This is one of the things that keeps parents coming back here. You can actually sit down and rest for a while!! This was our morning stop. Ride the bikes over, grab a cup of coffee and relax. Why don't we live there again????????
HEAVY LOAD!!! This was my workout. You can make the resistance as easy as you like but with 90 lbs on the back.....you're burnin' some calories!!!!
I took Taylor down to the beach and the little ones stayed here w/ Shenoa. A few minutes later here she comes with them saying she caught them layin there talkin about kissing. UGH. I knew I'd have to watch out for those McGuffin boys but, at 4???? Of course Park isn't showing much resistance. Ha!
This makes me nuts. Never in all my like have I enjoyed rolling in the sand. He's probably still got the stuff in his crack!!!
Park layed down w/ Shenoa & I to get some sun and fell fast asleep....
The little lady even kept her legs crossed!!
This was our last morning at the playground and we walked around the Harbor, Taylor asked if we could buy a boat like this.... Keep dreamin' buddy!We had such a great time!! BUT, we sure did miss daddy! Park woke me up the day we left and asked if we could go get daddy and come back. I hope we make it back soon!!!
