Edisto Beach, SC

We just got back from a wonderful vacation in South Carolina with my parents (we were about an hour from Charleston). The weather couldn't have been more perfect. It was over 98 degrees everyday and HUMID! Great beach weather and the ocean felt wonderful. Patrick and my dad got to golf everyday and they were the only crazy ones out on the golf course at 1 pm and in the scorching heat! My best friend, Lara, came to visit with her husband and daughter from Hilton Head. We got to see my Aunt Dee Dee quite a few times and my cousin Anna too! Caroline had a friend that moved to SC from her preschool, so, we got to see them too! It's amazing being that far away from home and seeing so many friendly faces.

Pure joy!

Simple things are so much fun

Anna came to visit us too from CA. Caroline loved playing with Mommy's cousin!!

Sadie and Caroline

One of Caroline's friend's from preschool moved to Charleston, SC. She came and had a play date at the beach! The girls had so much fun.

He's loving this!

Having fun in his little "pool"

Patrick dug out little pools for the kids almost everyday. They loved jumping in them.

Lara and me

Lara, my good friend from High School, came to visit us for the day with her husband Wagner and daughter Delaney. It was so fun having our kids play together!

The kids had so much fun on the beach.

They weren't too sure about the ocean though. We got Caroline to go in a few times and she did pretty well. Except one time she tried the boogie board and got a mouthful of salt water, so, that was the end of that!

Garrett's turn!
