Memorial Day 2014

Thanks to the generosity of Aunt Jan and Uncle Bill, we spent Memorial Day weekend at the beach in SC with our friends, the Culps.

Julia and James Robert were born only days apart and have become wonderful friends.  A highlight of the trip was watching them dance together and enjoy the beach. A trip with two 14 month olds was an adventure in and of it's self!

We walked/toddled around the boardwalk and enjoyed the wonderful weather...

And we savored the local seafood by making a low country boil-- I'm hoping that will become a Memorial Day tradition.

This heartwarming video made my Mother's Day very special this year:
Special thanks to my Mom for putting this together! 

Beach Bum

James Robert's First Trip to the beach was priceless.  The look on his face when his toes hit the sand was like he won the jackpot.

Special thanks to Aunt Jan and Uncle Bill for making the trip possible!

And thanks to Gram, we have a video that captures the trip:

Taking time the smell the roses

James Robert has a sweet new habit of smelling flowers and proclaiming, "yummmm!" He was in heaven when we visited the beautiful Brookgreen Gardens.
