Let's be honest. As a family that travels a lot, this whole staying at home thing has been rough. For me anyways. So our family beach trip FINALLY arrived! Now note, Charles and I weren't prepared for this to be a "vacation". More like spending 7 nights somewhere else. With different scenery. But a change of scenery! However, we did pray over it, over Mamie, over the rest of it... and off we went.
But I'm happy to say we were wrong! It WAS a vacation! See we were prepared for no sleep, an aching back from me carrying a very confused almost 2 year old (who is currently weighing in at 26 pounds and counting) who has no concept of "vacation". As in, I've been in one house for 3 months and now you are taking me to another one? Huh? But she was great! Sleep wasn't perfect, but it surely could have been much worse. And she played, loved the sand and ocean, and was only a touch clingy. And the boys... no worries, they would move to Kiawah Island tomorrow if we would let them. So "surfing", riding bikes, playing in the nature center... all of our favs, still got accomplished. And without further ado, our family beach trip to Kiawah Island, SC 2012.
Her first bike ride
And her first time on sand and in ocean
Our attempt at a family photo. Nice
Love this pic of Maxwell and his Grandad
Nothing was going to harm this girl
Somehow painting a canvas has become an annual tradition. Our playroom is filling up :)
Bye bye Kiawah. See you next summer...
