We had a great time with the Bonnett's, Walling's, Edmonds, Russ Hewitt and Mandy Fairy at Edisto Beach this weekend. We arrived on Thursday night and stayed until Sunday in Clam Sand. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets, breakfast at Sea Cow, days on the beach, supper at The Variety, shopping, riding in the boat, adventure at Botany Bay and creating wonderful memories with our best friends. You guys loved looking for crabs, shells and sharks teeth on the beach. It was another fabulous weekend at Edisto and we are so grateful to Chuck and Parrish for inviting us to share it with them.

The Lake - June 09

Just a last minute trip to the lake in June. We had a beautiful sunset cruise with some awesome pics.

Minus Wedding

Congratulations Nikki and Chris! We had a great time and are soooo happy for you two.

Happy Birthday Mimi!!!

Sunday, June 7th, was Mimi's birthday. We joined her for a delicious meal at Chestnut Grill. You guys were so excited to see Mimi and she was just as excited to see you both too. Ally Brynn, you have an unbelievable appetite and helped all of us eat our supper:) Ayden, you are a sweet eater just like mommy and really enjoyed the cheesecake we had for dessert. We all had a great evening and hope Mimi did too. Here are a few pics from the celebration.

Santee - The Locks

Ok, so I know that it has been almost a month since my last post and I apologize. You see, I lost my battery charger for my camera and have been lost without a camera glooed to my side. I have finally gotten a new one and will be posting more from here on out.

Summer is here and the sun is shining bright. Last weekend we took you guys on your first trip to The Locks. The Locks are located between Lake Moultrie and the Tail Race Canal (this canal leads into the Cooper River). We stopped on the other side of the Locks for lunch at Gilligans and headed back to the lake house. We had a gorgeous day with great water conditions and everyone had a blast. You two were soooo tired on the way home and you both fell asleep on the ride back. Here are a few pics from the day.

On Sunday, Chi and Carley called to tell us about auditions being held at the Bluebird Theater for The Jungle Book play being put on by the part time players. We decided to rush home from the lake and take Ayden to audition. Ayden, you fell asleep on the way home and did not want to go. Daddy and I cam up with a plan to get you a milkshake from McD's and see how you would feel. IT WORKED! Ha Ha. You perked right up and we took you in the theater for your audition. you really amazed mommy with your eagerness to learn the song the director taught you and two other little girls. She asked each of you to tell a little about yourselves, and you weren't shy a bit. You even volunteered to sing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" for her. We were floored. You are our little entertainer and can always make us smile. They have even nicknamed you "SMILES" at daycare:) We received a call from the theater two nights after auditions and you got TWO parts in the play. Your big role is one of the elephants marching through the woods and then the other role, will be part of the jungle that sings. Both parts are singing parts. Practice starts next week and I know you will be FABULOUS. Can't wait!
