Beach Trip

Well, it was a great long weekend at the beach, but it was chilly, chilly, chilly!  We left Wednesday when the kids got out of school so we were down there in time for dinner - as many of you know, our favorite thing about Wild Dunes/Isle of Palms/Charleston is what we get to eat!  I'm going to highlight the places we visited this time and just to let you know, I don't recommend this for those "weak at heart" - the jeans that I wore down to Charleston last week, don't fit quite the same this week :-)

We enjoyed a yummy meal at Sullivan's on Sullivan's Island the first night.  On Thursday, we ate a brunch at the SeaBiscuit on Isle of Palms and then enjoyed dinner at the Broadway Diner on Coleman Blvd in Mt. Pleasant.  We had lunch at Jestine's (which I LOVED when I was pregnant and still do - and they are so sweet to us each and everytime we visit them) - it was delicious - and then did some shopping.  I was successful in finding Bonner a dress for the Heart Ball so that was good news.  Friday night, I actually ordered a pizza from Domino's - online.  It was fascinating to me because after you submitted the order, you could "follow" it through the processes - it showed you each step and when it started and ended!  And, the pizza was quite tasty - the new crust they are advertising is worth the try!  On Saturday, we hung around the condo and enjoyed the beach for a little while - and then went and had a wonderful hamburger at Poe's on Sullivan's Island.  The kids had a blast since it was loud and had lots of distractions :-)

Here are some pictures from the beach trip!

 

  

 

  

   

 Needless to say, his pants don't fit quite the same either!

 

For this picture, I'm just showing my little girl off - she holds a crayon just right!  Now, I colored Barney's face, but I just love to watch her color because she is so precise ... even at 19 months!  Of course, when we got home on Sunday, she took the green crayon to the yellow wall ... so no more crayons for a while :-)  She can practice at school!

My brother-in-law, Glenn, has started working with Laser so when he got here this week, he had gifts from a recent trip to San Francisco - of course, you might be thinking a great trolley car for Ian or maybe one for Bonner ... oh no, they waited to make purchases for their favorite niece and nephew when they got to Chinatown :-)  So funny!  The kids love the HAT, of course; and Bonner talks about her "pretttttty" her dress is :-)

 

  

  

We got snow today which was fun... didn't start sticking until late this afternoon, but I guess it will be a "stay home" day tomorrow :-)  We don't have any big plans coming up; just getting ready for the Heart Ball in a couple of weeks!  Have a great rest of the week!
