Beachin' It 2015!!

Hello Amelia Island 2015!! Back at our favorite beach spot for a week and taking it all in! 

Nothing like a sunset on the beach!

A crane was in the pond behind our condo.

Our hungry turtles were happy to see us as well!

Mimi and I soaking up some rays!

Mimi's Graduation!

At 61 years old, my mom graduated college with a degree in Business Technology. I don't know many people in their late fifties who could start over after ending a marriage of 32 years, work full time, go to school, and still be a phenomenal Mimi. There are times I feel school is hard for me (homework, kids, and work), but then I remember my mom. She is truly an inspiration to me and her grandchildren.

Her biggest fans.

Little party I threw for her at my grandparent's house.

Beach Nights!

It's been a tradition to get ice-cream every time we visit the beach! The perfect summer night treat.

Sweet kiddos before dinner!

They were completely unaware Nana and I had scoped out an ice-cream place.

Layla and Paw-paw on the back deck after dinner.

Two kiddos ate their dinner really well, so we made it to the ice-cream shop!

Double chocolate!

Anything her brother does, she follows.

Beachin' it at Edisto!

The kiddos and I took a trip to Edisto this past week to visit Nana Bev and Paw-paw. Unfortunately, Al had to work this week and wasn't able to join us. However, he will be getting some much needed beach time with us at Amelia Island this coming week. You can never have too much beach in one summer!

This was also taken right after we arrived. I'm so excited me and the kiddos get some extra beach time this summer. It is rare that we are able to go twice in one year, let alone one summer.

First day beachin' it!

Our masterpiece! We had to move a couple of times due to the tide coming in.

This girl is fearless!

They clean up nice after a day at the beach!

Sweet babies!

Lewis's Birthday!

Another one of C's buddies turned seven this past weekend! Bowling, bumper cars, and laser tag! Oh how we love a good party!

Bonding with his preschool buds.

C did pretty well not having any prior bowling experience.

Bumper cars.

Laser tag!
