Beachin'

We spent a long weekend in St. Simons this June and had a fantastic time.  We had not visited the island in quite a while, and I had almost forgotten how completely charming it is there.  We relaxed, spent some good quality family time, ate some delicious food, and just enjoyed having no agenda at all for a few days.  We definitely have three little beach babies on our hands.  They could've spent hours upon hours in that sand!

This was the first time we have every tried to put all 3 in one room together.  It was quite entertaining every night hearing them "chat" themselves to sleep.  The first night we were there, I woke up about 3:30am to Joe shoving my side, saying, "Look.." pointing toward the door.  I opened my eyes and all three of them were standing in the doorway to our room...Kate appeared to be the "ring leader"...and said, "We're ready!"  lol!!!  I got up and walked them back to their room/beds (much to their disappointment...poor things.  They really and truly believed it was time to get up) and they went back to sleep thankfully.  We forgot to tell them no getting up until it's light outside...oops ;)

Each evening we'd come in from the beach and shower while Joe ran out to get us some yummy take-out.  After we ate dinner in, we headed out for ice cream down on the pier.

The boys were not feeling the elevator this trip.  And we were on the 3rd floor :(  One of us did the stairs with them every time.
