Office Picnic

We had Drew's Office Picnic for his work team this weekend at Folly. It started off as a trip to the beach (in the rain) to a cookout planned by men but really turned out just fine. For being a smart alec I achieved a nice sunburn! The food was great but as planning details would have it, the last two items to arrive were ice and plates, this was of course, after most everyone had already eaten - hmmmm!

Alyssa caught a few waves on her boogie board.

Just Lovin' It!

Busy Weekend!

Well, if this weekend is any indication of how August may go, we are going to be BUSY, BUSY, BUSY! We started Saturday off early at the park for a play date with Morgan and a picnic but the heat caught up with us and it was time to head to Splash Zone or "Splish, Splash" as Alyssa likes to call it. By mid-afternoon we had two wet, tired girls so time to go home for naps (yay!).





Sunday morning Alyssa sang at her School Church since they had celebrated Vacation Bible School all week. She wouldn't let me take any photos of her in her cute orange shirt. The service lasted an hour and a half, but Alyssa, Piper and Kailey did super great for four-year olds! We had a nice lunch at Med Bistro and then took a quick nap (Yay!) before heading to the beach.


We joined our Sunday School Class (I use this phrase loosely because for the past few years we have been present more spiritually than physically :) for a late afternoon on the beach.

Drew and Alyssa "inherited" a nice sand castle - 3 pools!

Alyssa even caught up with her old friend Evy.

We had a really great weekend just like I've already said - quite BUSY - whew!

Auntie Carla's

What a wonderful day at Auntie Carla's at the Isle of Palms close to Kiteboard land - how many do you see in this photo? (The answer is six!)

Alyssa and Steven may have the best ride of all, thanks to Mr. Duane.

Family Vacation - Wild Dunes

Even though the Beach was under construction due to "Renourishment" we managed to have a wonderful time on our Family Beach Vacation to Wild Dunes.

We celebrated our Anniversary, among many other things, at as many Lowcountry dining establishments as possible!

Poppy REALLY enjoyed his first week of Retirement - Zzzzzzz!

Another fun dining experience and beautiful sunset.

The two who enjoyed our vacation most of all!
